    In my opinion, I really do like this fight. Mikey would be in a very dangerous fight, but there are 3 benefits w/ massive upside —

    Mikey gets to chase and receive greatness by beating a guy whose best win is a badly drained and damaged Kell Broken. Star power and legacy? Check.

    Mikey gets to claim a 5th division title. Legacy? Check.

    Mikey enjoys a stylistic advantage (Spence's style is perfect and made for counterpunchers).

    Assuming that Mikey actually carries through w/ one of his call outs for once in his life.

    It would be a nice fight to watch. But I don't believe Mikey will do it. And if he does Spence will destroy him.

    On size?

    Because you've got people saying that Pacquiao, a 39 year old seasonal boxer (not even part time), is ducking Crawford and Spence. If Pacquiao were 32-35 years old, people would be demanding these fights. Mikey is bigger, denser than Pacquiao. And probably hits just as hard.

    Only thing that makes it interesting is Mikey's in and out footwork but he is too small. He'll get bullied and broken down like the rest. Wasn't that impressed with his performance over Lipinets either. Mikey is just promoting himself calling out spence imo.
    Wouldn't mind watching Mikey fight Spence since nobody wants to fight him though.

    Because that's exactly what Spence Jr. does. He just destroys his opponents. Methodically. Through hand blocks, via body punches, etc. And Mikey (a talented boxer but two weight categories below) is almost custom made for Spence.

    It’s no different to when GGG took on Kell Brook, I expect him to stop Mikey in 5 or 6 rounds.

    Hey, I really want to see both Mikey and Errol take an L, so barring a draw, either way I'll be happy.:)

    What about Errol don’t you like? He isn’t even a trash talker lol, are you sour about him beating up Brook?

    I don’t know I think a 147 fighter with Mikeys skill set would do well against Errol the only problem is he is too small and someone like Errol will steam roll him at some point.
