    Actually he looks great. I haven't seen anyone with his potential in a long while.

    He does have some improvements to make but for his age he's world class and head and shoulders above where most people are.

    He's going to be a champion probably in 2015 or 2016.

    People have been talking about Errol Spence since he was an amateur. You just heard about him now?
     
  5. He's like a black Danny Garcia. So he's a little bit more athletic, a little bit more power, and a little bit faster.

    But pretty much they're the same.

    Just watch him fight. He's just a really intelligent fighter. There are guys who are faster but he's seems to have technical skill and extremely high ring IQ.

    He actually reminds me a bit of an Andre Ward type fighter. We will find out when he gets tested at the world class level.

    Errol Spence is actually testing himself and fighting tough opponents for his relatively low experience. But of course you don't know ****, so I'd doubt you'd know anything

    Ronald Cruz, 20-4(15) has close fights with Kermit Cintron, Antwone Smith and Ray Narh, but Spence beat him up over 10 rounds and won 100-90 on all 3 scorecards

    He can't because Spence is quality.

    Too early to tell but he looks promising.
