    I agree. The tweet does not seem the utterances of a contrite individual on the cusp of taking responsibility and changing his lifestyle.

    It's up to him. He can grow up, change his lifestyle and hopefully lead a long and productive life or he can continue on the path he is on, in which case, things will end badly for him.

    Let's hope he doesnt hurt any innocent people as he is figuring it out.

    Well put, couldn't agree more. His response was extremely worrying when a man believes he is invincible he is heading for a fall.

    One is for sure he would have lost quite a few fans in the process. Strangely enough though, the way this sport works (and the world) it will probably make him more ££ lucrative, sell himself as some indestructible bad guy with a chip on his shoulder. Whilst it lasts!

    The accident caused him to have a brief moment of introspection. I get the sneaking suspicion that this isn't going to be a wakeup call for him.

    You all want him to be humble. The guy is a warrior. As a fan, I'm glad he's talking big. Too bad he doesn't behave in the way that pleases you.

    I think everyone is reading too far into one sentence on IG.

    He can be whoever he wants to be. He'll pay the piper for any screw-ups though, that's for certain.

    Spence might lose some of his prime years in prison because he was an idiot.

    It amazes me to see how people are actually trying to condone his actions because "he's flawed", "he's human, everyone makes mistakes" and "he didn't hurt anyone". But what are the chances that he does something reckless and dangerous again but in a worse outcome? People have good reasons to judge Spence based on what he did and what he said afterwards on his IG.

    "No broken bones, I'm a savage!"

    I'm sorry but that kind of comment just shows immaturity and lack of humility. He better learn from his mistakes before it comes back to bite him.

    People here don't like drink driving either dumbass, that's not an act that's only self harming often.

    How is drinking and driving and endangering the lives of innocent people being a “warrior”?
