    Yes we know Floyd achived more but in a actual fight forget about accolades spence would of ****ed him out

    Spence beat Floyd down in sparring and would of done the same in a fight

    Spence would knock Floyd out

    Spence is a southpaw a naturaly bigger fighter with power Floyd never fought anyone like him

    Spadafora got the better of him in sparring, it doesn't mean ****. If Pique nutmegs Leo Messi during training, Pique isn't suddenly the new star striker.

    Spence never fought anyone like Floyd, that works both ways.

    Spence is real good but it's too early for that sort of talk. He got a great win against Brook but he didn't just steamroll him, Brook was making a decent fight out of it.

    Maidana was a good fighter. He still lost and then lost even wider in the rematch.

    I don't Spence's size is enough to justify picking him to have beaten Floyd. And he is absolutely no way the most 'skillful' fighter Floyd would have faced. I think Spence is most likely pick of the bunch at 147, but I feel he needs to showcase himself more against the other top dogs before these claims can have any credence

    I can get a black eye, a bloody nose. I can have a bad day in the gym. At the end of the day, I don't have a bad payday, and I don't have a bad night under the lights.

    its not just his size spence is really skilful and is a southpaw too

    Pac for example is not a tougher fight then spence especially the post 2013 Pac pac went the distance with chris

    Spence cut of the ring and knocked out chris easy

    Floyd has never really struggled with southpaws.

    Triangle theories do not work. Pac has never been a KO artist at 147. he still put Chris down loads and won the fight incredibly easily, so this comparison is ultimately pointless to be honest

    Judah and Corley gave him hell. But they were good fighters with exceptional speed.
    But by that logic one oculd easily say that Floyd struggles with orthodox fighters.

    I think gave him Hell is maybe a little hyperbolic, but you're right. I think what I meant to say was more that there's no reason to see that southpaws are a weakness to him

    ridiculous statement
    people are getting on the hype train way too early. give fighters a few years to establish their mettle and cement their place in the sport

    People often forget(or maybe they dont even know) that a southpaw is not really that different from an orthodox. The tactics used against southpaws, with light adjustments, can be used vs orthodox fighters as well. And vice versa.

    Spence looks like a 147 version of Riddick Bowe. His body assault is as good as Mike MaCallums.. Mayweather wouldn't have stood a chance.
