    “Even the Mikey Garcia, I beat him all 12 rounds and I won every round. but the power wasn’t there. I should’ve finished him but the power wasn’t there because I was trying so hard to make weight. The day of the weigh-in, I was sitting in the sauna for an hour and I didn’t sweat. I had a sauna suit on… my hoodie… I didn’t sweat until I was like an hour in there just to make weight. Then I could only go up 10 pounds.”

    Can we please put out to pasture the stupid notion that Spence wanted to demonstrate his boxing skills and therefore carried Mikey?

    :lol:

    In so many ways it was a highly impressive performance as he outboxed and dominated Mikey Garcia a great fighter in all 12 rounds showing his fantastic boxing ability.

    You’re one of the ones pushing the “he carried Mikey” narrative, I never thought that was the case.

    Post up the source - and that was a poor performance by Errol. He should have started teeing off on him from the opening bell. Mikey should have never survived 12 rounds with him.

    He's been struggling to make 147 for years now. He's been draining himself.

    I don't think he can make 147 anymore when boxing resumes. He need to move to 154.

    Meh! Mikey looked fat and sluggish. A good win but not something that should blow anyone away.

    I'm amazed Spence can still make 147

    Crawford is hiding under arums desk till he moves up

    Then he will call him out back to 147

    Hopefully Spence & canelo can fight at a catch weight eventually.
    Would be a super fight!

    Spence is a textbook boxer. Solid fundamentals but he's straight up and down. I don't understand why people think he's a special fighter. Crawford figures him out and school him over 12.
