The best welterweight in the world is currently fighting

Errol Spence is destroying this Van Heerdan guy.

 

Van heerden is a tough hombre. Think he woulda beat berto tonite

 

Spence's body attack is WICKED!

 

Gotta see if spence is as aggressive and relentless vs a real banger. His skill and craft are unquestionable

 

Spence is like everything I WISH Lara would have been. A skilled southpaw with power who wants to break guys down and stop then, not pot shot and run around.

Love his style.

He beats Thurman, Brook, Garcia, and Porter.

 

Totally different fighters aside from bein southpaw. Lara got the chin issue

 

I mean that I wish Lara had Spence's killer instinct and overall meanness.

Spence is kinda a throwback because far too many younger fighters nowadays are CONTENT with outboxing guys and winning decisions.

Spence coulda EASILY just pot shotted this guy and won 10-0. But at all times he kept working for a stoppage. I like his mentality.

 

He didn't even wanna touch gloves wit the guy at the start of r1

 

Vicious Vivian Harris still boxes

 

Yup. Soft spoken, shy kid outside the ring. Mean sonuvabitch when the bell rings.

I wish there was video of him KOing bitch ass Broner in sparring.

 

Seems insane now, but circa 04 there was legit debates on who would win between Harris and the likes of Floyd, Tszyu, and Cotto.

 

Didn't drop broner but the ppl there say he had him out on his feet

 

Who would you pick between Spence and Danny Gift?

 

Maybe Spence is why pbf is retiring.

 

Harris is in shape and tho he's way smaller this bartolo colons grandson, he doesn't seem completely shot

Spence all day over garcia

 

Harris has been shot for almost 8 years now.

I hope this was his last fight. He clearly has NO punch resistance left.

 

Why is he on the shitty friday canada card and not on the mayweather thing tomorrow??? Ishe Smith??? :hair:

 

Relentless from Spence.

 

There's NO Pretense w/Errol Spence; What You SEE is What You GET...Even in Sparring, he Goes about his Business the SAME Way...

Soft Spoken OUT of the Ring, Certified ALPHA Male Inside of it...He's the Type to Drive Sparring Partners to Sessions w/Him, Laugh and Joke on the Way, Beat the Shit Out of them, Then Laugh and Joke All the Way Back Home...Doesn't Matter if he's Sparring a Welter, Super Middle or Small Heavyweight...SAME Approach...

Van Heerden was Ballsy and Came to Win, but he was SEVERELY Outgunned...Spence Administers FULL BODY, Head to Toe Ass Whippings...It's Not Often a YOUNG Fighter Picks his Shots and FINDS Openings to This Degree...As REED Types, Van Heerden's Probably Sitting in his Hotel Room, Trying to Figure Out which Part of his Body Hurts WORSE...

Spence is ALWAYS in Shape Too, which Manifests Itself in his Work Rate...Even when Guys Can Handle Single Shots from Spence, his ACTIVITY & Constant Pressure Demoralizes Them...






REED:hammert:

 

The Handful of Times this Happened in Sparring, Spence Disengaged, Gathered Himself for 20-30 Seconds, then Resumed Attacking...Spence THRIVES on the Lost Art of Infighting and Won't Sacrifice it for Very Looooooooooooong...




REED:hammert:

 

Definitely a Throwback and a WELCOMED Changed to the Current State of BLECK Fighters...

Spence is QUIETLY Confident, Rocks Little to No Bling, Makes Good Money yet DOESN'T Flaunt It, Doesn't have an Entourage or Yes Men or Dudes Laughing on Cue...Motherfucker Still Lives @ Home w/his Parents & is STACKING his Paper...Respectful, Doesn't Act like he KNOWS Everything...

He's a Throwback IN the Ring Too...No Shoe Shine Flurries, No Posturing, No Poses, No Showboating...Hell, Dude doesn't Even Switch Stances...





REED:hammert:

 

If Not for the Ropes, Broner Would've Been on his Ass...




REED:hammert:

 

I'd love to watch Spence vs Broner for real. Spence would give that clown one of the worst ass whuppins ever.

 

It Would Be a Complete Mismatch...

Spence is Bigger, Stronger, Taller, Faster, More Skilled, More Dedicated, Better Trained...There's Literally Not 1 Meaningful Advantage Broner Would Have...Even in a "Cash Out" Capacity, Broner Wouldn't Go Anywhere Near Errol Spence...






REED:hammert:

 

Spence needs to headline a card against someone like Chaves or Jesse Vargas. Those guys fill the gap in class between a Van Heerden and the Thurmans and Brooks. And it's also hard to call out big name fighters when you can't headline.

I hear a lot about spence being ducked. If it's true it would have to against mid level guys like Vargas and chaves.

 

He is indeed, the best welterweight in the world. And in terms of ABILITY, not accomplishment, he already is a top 5 pound for pounder. Some fighters are just that special and you can tell how great a guy is when you watch him fight.

His management needs to start matching him up with the top 10 starting in 2016, though.

His talent level calls for it.

 

Spence can beat Thurman and Brook right now.

Neither one wants to fight him, so what can he do?

But hey, I'm all for Jesse Vargas getting KOd.

 

If Team Garcia are up for it (Doubtful), lets see Spence vs Swift.

 

Just want to remind everyone once again, whether his fault or not, Spence has yet to face even a modest threat. Given this, the praise heaped on him is nothing more than wishful thinking at this point. There's a long list of fighters, who have looked like killers against subpar competition, only to shit the bed when they finally faced someone good. Just saying.

 

Like I said, Spence needs to headline in a "step up" fight before he can realistically call out accomplished high paid belt holders.

I think haymon might be laying the groundwork for a super six style tourney for floyds vacant belt after he retires. Thurman, brook, Garcia, Spence, Khan and Porter.
