    No its not, its not wanting to be harassed by someone. You obviously have some bizarre fascination with me lately and you're getting creepy and I don't want to be bothered with you anymore. You're like a gnat that I want to swat.

    You just can't deny your hate for certain fighters...and sick love for old foreigners.

    You even admitted you despise Cotto.:deal

    Reminds of Danny garcia. Good fundamental fighter with a hard punch. Tends to load up on along of punches so might be unstuck against a quick handed fighter who can take his punch.

    I'm sold. He's got a LOT of potential. The question is will he maximize his potential?. Will he get the right rights at the right time?

    Spence needs to continue to get elite level competition from this point on to keep him on the upward trajectory.

    He has the ability, skills and talents to fight on that level but who is going to be calling out this kid who has something to lose?

    Spence could be in a position that GGG is in......If Spence could somehow get Pac to fight him, that would shake up boxing because Spence could win that. No one would duck Spence after a win over Pac.

    He has some good tricks on him i.e taking advantage of his opponents high guards by pinning against their high guards with his forearm and hammering away.
    Hitting behind the head, damaging shots.
    He also takes full advantage of cupping shots on the inside, he will not let his opponent think they can hold without fighting.

    I hope he does well. Good fundamentals, well schooled.

    Can we agree he's the best AMERICAN prospect?

    CST80, can you find 50 better American prospects? Or 10 better?

    I said 2 years ago that Spence was the best prospect in the world will be the best ww after 6 or 7 more fights. Today there is not a ww who can beat him. So he now moves out of prospect territory and the best prospect title will be taken over by Erikson Lubin who now fights at 154 and after 6 or 7 fights will be the best 160 lbder out there.

    I consider everyone a prospect until they fight an elite. Spence has yet to fight an elite. So has Brook. I even consider Brook to be a prospect as well because all he's fought is Shawn Porter and then domestic level Englishmen.
