    But Spence isn't that great at cutting off the ring though.....where has he shown this?

    He couldn't do it against Brook, until the Englishman faded.

    Tonight, Peterson stood and traded.


    Porter would actually be a very interesting fight because Shawn can only fight one way.....and it'll be interesting to see how Spence reacts to the unorthodox style of aggression and head movements.

    He was complaining when being tagged on the ear against peterson.....

    Yeah so has everyone else Granados has ever faced, which is a murderer's row. Or didn't you know that casual?

    :lol: that was aimed at the Spence hater. Thurman doesn't have much in terms of high level skills. He has an okay jab, blocks punches with his face, has good legs, and a bad gas tank, along with a plastic body.

    Why you're not giving Thurman the respect he deserves is strange. Its cool to make a point for why Spence wins, but Thurman isn't a tuneup.

    What a *****. Openly hate on quality Black fighters, then claim someone else is race baiting. smh. At least we have you out in the open now. You've been a bit bitchy since that 5% conversation.

    Unless Spence is packing some glass, he will wreck Thurman.

    Pretty sure i can recall him being a Brook fan during the Brook v Spence build up.....

    So i'm not sure the guy is sitting in a full white gown whilst debating with you now.

    Granados is A grade tough and sometimes those guys can play the role of spoiler if you're not on your A game.

    You have nothing out in the open, and you really have ZERO room to talk after the series of abominably racist posts you made on the Franco thread you just mentioned, which many, like more than 10, begged me to ban you for, but I took mercy on you, cool it with calling everyone on the forum a racist because they don't like a particular fighter, you're way to sensitive, quit acting like such a persnickety SJW hall monitor, its annoying as ****, and not your job, its Kirk, IB, Rummy, The Professor and mine to make that call. This is a Boxing site, not a political/social/cultural debate site, so be quiet.

    Spence is doing what he needs to do. However, he reminds me of Mike Jones. His offense is very good, but he gets hit a little too much. Even if he believes he can take the opponent’s best shot, as the bigger man, he has to shore up his defense.

    Not sure who will do it, but I think he’s a Randall Bailey type KO waiting to happen.

    Matthysse knocked Peterson out when he was only 140lbs., Khan beat Peterson, but was cheated in Peterson's home venue.....................this fight was a disgrace, then the Easter/Fortuna robbery, but then Easter was owned by Haymon..................go figure.............
