    Spence is good and will be a player, but I hear a lot of high praise for this kid and I just can't quite grasp it. He is well-rounded, but not particularly fast or hard hitting, and his defense is mediocre. I've seen him hurt already, so his chin may be a question--I'll wait for further evidence, however.

    Hard to tell how good he is but there is a reason Thurman keeps ducking him, especially with a shot at Flloyd waiting if he beats him.

    I'm not convinced about him either. I think he's an excellent prospect, but I don't see him as a can't miss. He's stuck between boxer and puncher, but he's not quite a boxer-puncher. He reminds me a whole lot of...Erickson Lubin, who is much younger.
