    Tim is a clown for not putting him away. Errol is there to be knocked out.

    Tszyu is feather-fisted

    That's what you call faith in haymon. Spence figured he gets a dec in Australia enough to take the last round off in a fight he was losing

    It would be disgusting for Spence people to put him in against anyone ever again....n definitely not Ortiz...


    BUT it's boxing so if Spence can bag another 10-15 mil for a fight...then go for it. I doubt Ortiz will bring that kind of dinero...

    If tszyu were a smarter or better fighter he woulda pressed the body attack. Those were punches that had the most impact for him

    Good. Hopefully he sticks to his guns and retires. Respectable fighter and person.

    I do worry if hes offered 5+mill to fight ortiz in texas whether its tempting

    I agree that if Tszyu wasnt trash Spence would have been stopped tonight.

    Stick a fork in him ESJ is done. Needs to stay retired. I like Spence one of the good guys in boxing just glad it was Timmy and not Fundora.

    That ain't saying much. Ennis would've stopped him in 1

    Does Spence make the HOF in 5 years? Objectively, though I like him, I dont think he did enough. Wins over Brook, Mikey Garcia, Danny Garcia, Porter, and Ugas are the makings of a good career, but not a HOF career.

    But he was a star American fighter. Meaning, he'll almost certainly be inducted.

    Ennis likely beats any version of Spence, especially if we're talking 154. I dont think Spence would have ever been effective at 154.

    Yea he'll get in. Could be quickly depending on the other candidates. It aint like there's many worth guys retiring in 2026

    I agree bout ennis. Don't agree about 154. Spence stuck around 147 way too long if he were looking to maximize his physical prime rather than monetize. If he went to 154 six or seven years ago and lured crawford up there its a different fight. Way different if he didn't nearly kill himself in a car

    He looked pretty frail at this point. Couldn't even cut to 157. That's a young man's advantage, the whole scale felon shit

    I dont buy "way different." Crawford is just a much, much better fighter. Spence on the very best night of his life had to come from behind against Brook. I dont see what Spence ever offers Crawford. The talent/skill gap is too big.

    well by way different Im not necessarily saying spence would win but it wouldnt have been the ass whipping it was.

    spence was dropped 4 or 5 times, won no zero rounds and was stopped in a career ending fight as it turns out?

    154 spence vs Crawford pre accident is competitive and Id pick crawford by decision. maybe 8 to 4 type win

    We'll have to disagree. I think Crawford would always take him apart and stop him.
