This content is protected How good of a defender would you say Spence is? I always felt that his defense was similar to Winky (High guard, counter with the jab, and ability to fight in range to prevent snapping shots).
hes got excellent defense for what he does. spence is going to force you to work. his method is to push you every second of every rd, because he knows you are going to fade before he does. he takes small forward steps, pokes and prods at you, forcing you to react and work. this creates tremendous mental, as well as physical pressure on you, depleting you. its no pressure on him, cause this is what he wants. once you are mentally and physically compromised, he amps up the power shots and volume to finish breaking you down. at first he applies just enough pressure to get you to explode on him, which he is ready for, and he uses his footwork and shell defense to weather you burst. as you tire and start to make mistakes, he starts to hold his ground more and punishes you for those mistakes. this causes even more mental fatigue as you start to feel the difference in where hes at, and where youre at now. your mind starts to fold. he makes you start to think that maybe you aint up to the task, and thats usually the beginning of the end. cause you either fold completely, or compound your mistakes out of desperation.
If he has such a good defence how is a video able to break it down when actual world class professional fighters are allegedly unable to do so in a boxing ring? It makes no sense whatsoever. So much stupid dumbness plaguing our sport these days. Imagine the avalanche of abuse I would be subjected to on here if I claimed I could knock someone out with a song
