Spence going 12 rounds with lighweight Mikey Garcia was embarassing

Yeah, I don't think we want to play this game, because then we'd have to play it on Bud and actually every great killer in boxing history and it doesn't go that well for most of them.

 

I was at that fight in Jerry Jones's Deathstar. Garcia looked fat as a burrito grande that night; no was was he a firm, hard 147 pounder. He didn't add muscle he added refried beans to make weight.

The fight was no contest. Garcia went into a shell once he realized he wasn't going to hurt Spence. It takes two to tango. Garcia was going to survive at all costs, despite being pounded for 12 rounds.

 

Anyone who can outbox Mikey Garcia is pretty good.

 

yeah mikey ate pizza and burgers to put the weight on it wasn't even muscle. He was basically a fat 130 pounder. Spence was probably 170+ fight night

 

The guys looked 2-3 divisions apart on fight night. Was embarrassing that Man Down Spence couldn't stop him, score a KD, or even wobble him. Put me in the minority that was not impressed watching Spence outbox a LW/JWW as a SWW/MW...

 

Also that Laurence Cole (ref) gave Spence a literal timeout to regain his senses. True joke

 

It really was. I got Crawford outclassing Spence and wouldn't be surprised if he stops Spence.

 

There's a racial and tribal component. A lot of the Floyd fans piggybacked off Haymon and latched onto whatever successful black boxers there were including Spence and Wilder. Contradiction be damned because those fans looked past the cherrypicking and past the windmills and stuck to their guns insisting they saw greatness.

If Bud does stop Spence thousands of fans will somehow be upset. Why? Couldn't tell you. Crawford will be a 3 weight champion and twice undisputed/lineal. A shame that so many people missed out on Bud's career instead of appreciating it theyve been actively cheerleading against him

 

good thread to separate the know nothings from boxing heads.

 

There has been a stupidity overload on this forum since the Loma defeat.

 

Disgusting performance by Spence.
He should have got knocked down like Crawford did against Mean Machine.

 

Nothing embarrassing about it. Spence told the world that he would go in and out box the boxer since they think he can't box. That fight was just to prove to the unbelievers he was more than a fighter who just comes forward.

 

Nah. Mickey shelled up for the full. Never easy to beat pro fighter who decides he just wants to survive.

 

The simpletons out in full force. This is like saying Bredis Prescot is a much more fierce puncher and straight killer than Terrence Crawford. Bredis KTFO Amir Khan in ONE round yet ELEVEN years later and several KO's later it took Crawford six whole rounds to do it. So Bredis is levels above Crawford, yeah??

I can make millions of examples like this to illustrate the stupidity being spouted here. I.e. GGG was going to MURDER Canelo... MURDER him if they ever fought. 36 rounds later and not even a near trip to the canvas.
