Bro he got beat by a better boxer. That don’t take away the fact he is an elite fighter. And saying he one dimensional is crazy. Crawford is just that much better than everybody else

Dude only fights one type of way. Couldn't even make any adjustments. Thats "elite" to you?!:what:

Spence kind of is one dimensional, just very good at that dimension so for most fighters it’s been hard to withstand that dimension.

Yeah cause a fighter that can't even move his head out the way is really an "elite" fighter :bryan:
Enough to slap Mayweather around....it's easy to claim elite in today's age because they don't fight anybody. Soon as Loma started fighting top names..loses. Same thing with Canelo.

That Spence was before the car accidents, before the retina issues and Floyd just got out of jail. There are a lot of favorable variables in Errol's direction in that circumstance.

It's sparring, just like Paul Spadafora supposedly got the best of Floyd once in sparring when Floyd was not in top shape. Someone can have your number in sparring. Can they produce when the lights are on and the women and the ballers are in the stands? That's the separation.

Absolutely not. Tyson and Douglas fought a good fight. Tyson actually knocked him out earlier but Douglas got a long count. Tyson got caught many times throughout that fight but at no time did I feel like he needed to retire or that he was in danger of losing faculties. When he was reaching for his mouthguard I was just thinking this is a guy who hasn’t been there before

Buster Douglas was going into the ring after his mom died. Tyson was missing the guidance that made him who he was

It’s not an excuse. The general public may find rejoice in a legend’s fall from grace but to me it is a tragedy. Of course Tyson fukked up that fight camp and probably truly believed he didn’t even need camp the way he was walking through people but it in no way nade me feel that someone needs to get in the ring and stop the fight

He was not getting beaten around the ring from post to post the way Errol was

Stop it.
Tyson was at the pinnacle and Buster was a journeyman.
Buster destroyed Tyson and thats all of it.
Tyson was shattered after that it was over, the baddest man in the planet on the ground trying to put his mouthpiece in and in the corner with rubber gloves being used as ice bags.
