Errol Spence Jnr vs Canelo Alvarez at 154

Errol Spence has yet to beat a top 15 WW, but you're matching him against
the 1 or 2 JMW and the current lineal "MW" champion?

It's far too early to ask this question.

 

Hopefully after this Bundu fight... Spence can be taken seriously by the networks & promotion and matched against the next level.

Let's see what he has to offer.

 

It's a little early for me to make an educated guess, Spence looks good, real good but I want to see him against somebody like Thurman, Bradley, Porter and how well he can deal with elite fighters. If he can dispose of them then I would have no second thoughts about him schooling Canelo.

 

please dont say the gingerbread man is strying to fight this green kid. and has ggg on blocked phone call list. lol

 

Who?

 

1. Re-read what I just said.
2. Berto, Ortiz, Paulie, Khan are all fighter's at the tail end of their careers, so why would you even bring them up?
3. Bringing up Shawn Porter, again, Paulie was at the tail end of his career, so why bring him up.
4. I guarantee my knowledge of the sport eclipses yours. Absolutely guarantee it.

Matching a neophyte against a man ranked top 2 that is already well accomplished, but my boxing knowledge is lacking? Do better.

 

Khan himself acknowledges and admits this :huh

Danny would lose, and lose big, (no one disputes this) but no way on earth would Spence stop him. Just the fact that you would say this lets me know where you are with your boxing knowledge.

The thing is Spence hasn't proven he's the real deal. Let him fight a top 15 guy at WW. And I've already posted on other threads of what I feel Spence's liabilities are and which fighters in the WW top 10 would be able to exploit them. Real deal? No, not yet.

Fighting better names is not irrelevant when you have proven successful only vs. a certain style thus far in a career. Just look at what happened with Sammy V. a couple of weeks ago. A surefire
prospect that hadn't been exposed to all different kinds of styles coming up, he get's dominated. the boxing landscape is littered with more of these stories than the magical guy that has fought nobody but becomes champ just because he's "better".

ok I'm done.

 

My money is on Canelo but Spence makes him look bad.

 

You try to come off as some 'smart' poster, but the stuff you say shows that you're just a fanboy at the most.

Khan is at the tail end of his career, despite his age. Having been KO'd three times will shorten your career. Aren't you smart, shouldn't you know this?

You say Danny would get KOd by Spence, and yet provide no sound reasoning to back that statement?

It's clear as glass you aren't as smart as you pretend to be here. And kissing the ass of an undefeated fighter doesn't prove it.

If you are going to act ****y and arrogant, at least have the posts to back up that swagger. W/O the back up, you just come off as a c*nt. :smoke

 

What an interesting fight. As some have mentioned, Spence still has to fight some of the top guys at 147 to truly gauge how good he really is. From what i've seen of him already, I think he's the best fighter at 147 lbs right now and I'd favor him to beat all the top guys in the division.

TBH I don't know if Canelo is the best LMW in the world. I think that distinction might go to Jermall Charlo. He's a VERY big JMW, has a good all around skillset and is very powerful at the division. I'm not too sure Canelo could beat him.

Anyway, I'd love to see Spence eventually take on some of the top 154 lbers such as Alvarez, Charlo and Lara but after he's fought the top guys in his own division.
