So that Errol Spence isn't too bad, huh?
Spence is the most talented fighter in the division in IMO, only guy i think may be as talented is Brook, though I'm still sticking w/ my boy Spence in that regard.
He has speed, great technique, and ridiculous power. One of (if not) the best bodypuncher in the game as well, maybe only second to GGG. Could tighten up the defense a bit, but he's young and can only improve.
Brutal KO against a durable fighter. Can't wait to see Errol in bigger fights, great showcase/KO on network TV following the Olympic coverage, so that was the best outcome possible and hopefully get people interested in Spence/the sport itself.
Thoughts on Spence and his potential?

I have to agree with you on Spence. And he keeps steadily improving too.
His outside defense could use some refinement (he remains at the same level when he finishes his combinations and doesn't move his head off center-line). He could also pivot away a bit more for defense. But all of this is nitpicking.
I think with his inside game, he beats Thurman (who avoids the inside religiously). Brook is more fundamentally sound than Spence Jr. and has better outside defense. He is also strong (the Porter fight as an example).
But I don't know what Brook is going to look like after his GGG fight. He may look like Sloth from the Goonies and his body may not want to go back down to 147Lbs - especially after packing muscles to make 160Lbs.
There's a distinct possibility that Brook may have to drain himself, be weaker than in the past (and not recovered), and be run over by Spence. Very possible.

Errol is a beast his defense is good,he hits hard and he sticks to his game plan.If Errol fight Keith Thurman he will win easy.Keith can't survive Errol's body shot.Keith can't take body shots too well.

I like how his style isn't flashy but effective and he uses it very well. Much like Golovkin. I really wanna see him vs Brook but who knows if Brook goes back down to 147 after he loses. Either way I wanna see how Spence takes a punch from a guy with power. Porter would be a good fight. Thurman doesn't seem all to eager to fight him at all.
