    sounds to me like spence should move up to 154 from watching the podcast with jack and barnes.

    Spence would batter that Rosario cat who just upset J-Rock.

    REED was STUNNED to Hear Spence Got as Heavy as 189...For Him to ADMIT It Publicly Tells REED Spence was Probably 2Bills or More...

    REED Knew EJ Got Into the High 170's, but it's Definitely Time to Move Up if he's Exceeded That Between Bouts...

    Obviously I could be wrong, but I predict Spence will not be the killer at 154 that he's been at 147.

    I think it’s possible he could be even better, actually. The weight might just suit him more, similar to the way it did for Hearns and Trinidad.

    His biggest threat would be Jermell Charlo but they might never even fight since they’re friends.

    That's definitely possible. We'll have to wait and see.

    Bud is the only fighter between 147-154 capable of beating Spence.

    Well, Ennis has the talent to beat Spence, but we still dunno if he's the true goods.

    Spence might stay at 147 for too long just like fellow Texan Curry did.

    189 is massively heavy for a 147lb guy.

    I heard that Vince Phillips came down from 190 for his fight with Terron Millett and was absolutely dead at the weight.

    Millet beat his ass like Phillips had never boxed. 5 rounds.

    If Spence loses, he'll have a DOUBLE excuse - he can say it was the car accident AND being weight-drained.

    It certainly is a closer call than it was a year ago, I'll say that.

    Pre-car accident, Spence does a number on Danny Gift.

    Not gonna lie, I'm not sure now. I wanted him to have a tune-up.

    He’s definitely very confident to take this fight in his first outing since the accident.

    If Spence has no major issues, he shouldn’t have too many problems with Garcia. Just too good for him, overall. Garcia has a puncher’s chance due to the fact that Spence gets hit and we won’t know about his punch resistance coming back.

    I still think Errol should beat him, though. That said, he really should move up to 154. It’s time for him to do so.

    REED Won't Go Quite THAT Faaaaaaaaaaaaar, but it's a Risk REED WOULDN'T Take if it were Up to Him...

    Spence Hasn't Even Been Cleared to Spar Yet, to REED's Knowledge...Coming Off the Accident and Back to Back Fights w/Mikey and Porter, NOBODY Would Blame EJ for Taking a Tune-Up...

    But Oh Well, Looks Like it'll Be Danny...

    Garcia's only chance remains timing, and stopping Spence. He cant outbox him, and he's not a high workrate fighter.

    Danny stopping Spence seemed unlikely pre-accident, but now we dunno how Errol will react to punches.

    You could argue it's a dumb fight for Garcia to take. At least in terms of restoring his status.

    But... how??? How is it a bad fight for Danny to take?

    Outside of Pac, it's the best payday Danny can earn.

    And Danny has nothing to lose. He'll be a clear underdog. ALLLLL the pressure is on Spence.

    It's a great fight to take if you're Danny Garcia. Garcia is no spring chicken - personally, against Ivan he looked like he's slipping IMO. He's definitely on the other side of his best days.

    My point is, Danny is now at the stage when he can get upset by a fringe guy, and blow a big payday. So there's no time to lose for him at this stage.

    So why WOULDN'T he take the Spence fight?

    Triple G still looks like a God beating up bums. Is Triple G still prime? My point exactly.

    Don't know about that, seems like he operates at the same level he ever has (blasting out bums, struggling/losing against top level fighters)

    While I think it's clear now that Golov was never as good as his hype, he's pretty obviously well past prime now.
