    Mikey's credibility is like the Italian Army in WW2.

    i think spence might have hit him harder than it looked. still aint recovered. to be fair, he did look more willing to take spences shots than he did lips.

    Much harder. Spence power is overrated.

    I used to be a big Mikey fan, then his unwillingness to fight the best made me not care too much for his career, now he's just down right annoying.

    He didn't hit harder? Maybe because he went easy on you...

    Spence could have wrecked him.

    I dont buy it and im a garcia fan. Mikey was much more defensively responsible and aware against Spence than he was with lipinets in that fight causing him to press the fight leaving himself open more to getting caught clean. With that said i never saw Spence as a one shot ko artist to me he was always a guy that simply breaks his man down usually to the body.

    Spence tried his best and couldn't put at dent in lil mikey, At least when GGG fought smaller guys he knocked their block off.

    He might think so, but there is a reason why. Against Spence, Mikey was in defensive mode almost all the times from round one to the last. If Mikey fought his way and at least tried to win, he would eat more hits from Spence and he wouldn't say this thing.

    It's pretty obvious, just look how he was reacting when he got hit flush by Sergey, he didn't like it very much, and fought him quite cautiously. He was clearly buzzed a few times, whereas Spence who is a much better boxer then Sergey, landed flush a hell of a lot more, basically teeing off at times, and is much bigger then Mikey and Lipinets, yet Mikey soaked it all up and never really looked in trouble, in spite of how the ref was reacting.

    There seems to be a pattern here, clearly they don't all have sour grapes, Spence just isn't the power puncher he's made out to be, it is what it is, stop acting so triggered.

    He can say want he likes, Spence made him his *****. Maybe he should go back in there with Spence, take another beating. Maybe he will see some sense after that.

    I don't think Spence ever hit top gear against Garcia. He seemed content to get the UD that was never in doubt. Mikey never challenged him. He never dared to be great.

    Yeah that's great, but still, Mikey shared the ring with both, and said one hit harder than the other. What's the issue? Why would that bother you? I'm a huge GGG fan, but the reality is, David Lemieux probably hits harder, and does according to some shared opponents. So ****ing what. GGG still stopped Lemieux and yeah, Spence would probably stop Lipinets.
