    He'll be fighting Alejandro Barrera (Never heard of him) in a 12 rounder. It's on the undercard of Charlo vs Campfort.

    Hopefully 2016 is the year that Spence can really show what he's made of by someone in the top 10 stepping in the ring with him.

    Yeah, he's 25 years old and after this fight will be 19 fights deep. He's ready for a top contender. Spence is the gem talent of PBC and Haymon needs to realize this and turn him into a star. Makes me wish Spence was with GBP.

    Spence is Actually the Main Event...No Way in Hell Would He Be on an Undercard in his OWN City...

    You sure, bro? I'm pretty sure that Charlo fraud is the ME. Spence should just move up to 154 for Charlo's belt. He'd beat the fuck outta Jermall.

    According to a Letter Sent to Team Spence, from the Promoter of Record (Leija Battah Promotions), Spence is the Main Event:dunno:...

    Not that it's a BIG Deal Either Way, as they'll Both Be Televised, Obviously...

    Can't See Spence-Charlo Happening Anytime Soon, as Spence's Trainer (Derrick James) Also Trains Charlo's Twin Brother...

    That would certainly make more sense. Firstly, because it's Dallas. And secondly, because they should recognize that Spence has star potential and the Charlo's dont.

    Yay. Spence against more crappy comp. Maybe after this win he can enter the p4p list since regardless of his competition he is obviously great.

    Spence needs to face credible opposition real soon.

    Brotha REED, just checked Spence's facebook.

    He's the undercard. Said himself in his post.

    Spence's Last Opponent, Chris Van Heerden, was CREDIBLE...Name Recognition ISN'T Synonymous w/Credibility, Necessarily...

    REED Would've FAVORED Van Heerden to BEAT Andre Berto, who Fought Floyd the Very Next Night...

    Oh Well...Spence's Trainer Told REED Different and Showed him a Letter from Leija Battah...But REED'll Let it Go if EJ's POSTING That Himself...

    As Neil would Say Charlo's the "Walkout Bout"...

    You're talking out your ass. NOBODY said Spence belongs on the top 10 P4P list yet. But you'd have to be blind to not recognize that he has P4P talent and skills. But yes, it's time for him to step it up. And that's not on Spence personally, cause it's well documented that he wants Thurman and Porter. It's up to Haymon to step up his comp level, which in 2016 I think we'll finally see.

    Then it's settled. Spence is p4p and he has proven it beyond a doubt.

    Van Heerden was a helluva lot better than a shot to pieces Paulie, which is the type of guys Double's boy Cherry Garcia is currently feasting on.

    He's Mentioned Kell Brook Too...It's NOT as if Spence is GUNSHY or Anything...

    If, by this Time Next Year, Al Haymon Hasn't UNLEASHED Errol Spence on @ Least 1 of his Welterweight Beltholders, REED'll Be 1st in Line to CRITICIZE Haymon...

    I'm hoping for Williams-Charlo in 2016. J-Rock exposes Jermall brutally.

    What???:say:...

    REED Said Van Heerden was CREDIBLE, No More, No Less...You Make it Seem like REED Said Van Heerden was the Type of Opponent that DETERMINES Lb for Lb Worth, or Something...

    Hopefully Haymon unleashes him on Garcia so Doub can shut the fuck up.

    Spence gives Garcia an epic ass whuppin.

    reed how badly does spence give it to the charlos in the gym, Im sure them guys musta sparred at some point??

    I wish there was footage of Spence putting it on About Bullshit.

    Kenny Porter said that Spence beat him so bad that Broner started crying. Probably an exaggeration, but hilarious if true.

    Only time i sae van heerden, and he seemed average as hell. Would absolutely pick berto over him.

    i said it before Id definitely take Van Heerden over Berto

    To REED's Knowledge, they've YET to Spar...E.J. Spars @ Pretty Much the Same Intensity as he FIGHTS, So Unless Charlo's Facing a Guy SIMILAR to Spence, it's Probably Not in his Best Interests to Entertain the Idea for Now...

    They Keep a Respectful Distance, from what REED's Seen...E.J. Has His Session, then Charlo has His, or Vice Versa...

    If the ONLY Time You Saw Roy Jones was the 2nd Tarver Fight, It'd Be HARD to Favor Roy Over Anybody...Ditto for Roberto Duran in the Hearns Fight...


    Van Heerden's Got a Handful of Bouts on Youtube, Which REED Checked Out Leading Up to the Spence Fight...He'd have BEATEN the Version of Andre Berto that Floyd Fought the Following Night...

    Not Trying to Portray Van Heerden as a Great Fighter or Anything Remotely Close to that, but he IS Credible for a Fighter of Spence's Experience to have Faced...





    REED:hammert:

    i figured they woulda sparred at some point throughout their childhoods till now. or fought as amateurs. being from the same state and around the same age/size

    The Charlo's are Houston Based and DIDN'T Really Make a Ton of Noise as Ammys....Cat by the Name of Regis Prograis was the Dude Spence Ran Into a Time or So, @ the State Golden Gloves, On his Way to the National Gloves...

    There WASN'T a Ton of Hype Surrounding the Charlo Brothers Initially, Until Ronnie Shields Starting Training Them...

    ħe might be better than he looked agains Spence, but let's just say that if Spence didn't chosed to step up against a complete unkown, we wouldn't be having this discussion now.

    Btw, I'm a fan of Spence, and thinks he's really good. But I'd like to see him fight top opposition soon enough. He's no longer a kid.

    Edit: Just looked at the aforementioned clips of Van Heerden. I'm sticking to my gun, I don't think he's very good. Also read that he borderline robbed a journeyman in Nahr, though I wasn't able to find the fight. I'd definitively pick Berto over him. Especially after seeing how bum ass Mandawe managed to rock his world on the inside.
