    Being Honest Ive only seen him fight a few times against zlaticanin and broner, and he looked a very collected boxer with nice power, but nothing special at all, definitely not in the uysk, loma, crawford mould. and now i see hes fighting a huge WW who is extremely relentless, spence is going to absolutely destroy garcia. I dont what Garcia is thinking but hes not going to do anything above 140. Hes going to get a career ending beating. Ah well i missed the hype and now its going to end.

    So will you be on the Garcia bandwagon if he derails Spence's hype train?

    You think Spence is a hypejob?

    :lol: I will.
    I can't stand the ****. And in my eyes, he is extremely overrated.

    But credit to him for stepping up. And i will be there eating crow and giving praise, if he beats Spence.

    No. I actually really like Spence and his style. He's just building up steam and the hype that comes with it. I don't think building hype inherently makes you a 'hype-job'

    I think he's an A level fighter but Spence is a bad style for him. He's a counterpuncher but unlike Canelo, he's not a counter puncher that just stands in the pocket James Toney style and counters the **** out of come-forward fighters. I also don't think he's fast enough on his feet to just box circles around Spence and counter him. Once Spence gets him on the ropes, we'll see how much heart Mikey has.

    Course he’s special,the very fact he’s unbeaten,moved through divisions and now fancies himself against Spence would indicate that no?
    Quite what some guys have to do,to gain any respect on here at times is baffling to me.

    I can kind of understand what Garcia is doing...big payday for chasing greatness and can rule 140 if loses.

    I'd love to see Mikey fight Josh Taylor.

    Quite right,there’s a big difference between someone like Briggs mouthing off and creating hype to what Spence has has done.I wasn’t sure until he fought Brook on foreign soil
