I came here to see what you guys would be saying about Spence.
A performance like that against a quality opponent ... and nothing.
This place used to be more about the fights and relevant discussion of the fighter.
Now, it's like TMZ boxing stories are more important discussions.

Re: ERROL SPENCE LOOKS LIKE FUTURE WORLD CHAMP AGAIN (HIGHLIGHTS)
I've been impressed with Van Heerden for some time. Never figured him to be a major player on the world scene, but I did think they moved Spence in with him a little too quickly. Spence proved me completely wrong.verballistic wrote:The way he varies his combinations with head and body shots is very impressive. He looks to be only 3-4 bouts away from challenging for a major world title.
Nice highlights from PBC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VooN72RtPk8
I honestly think he's ready to challenge right now. He won't get one for 3-4 bouts, but he's ready now. That was clinic on smart, superior boxing.

Van Heerden is solid but not much more. I think Spence is the goods and had zero concerns about him being moved too quickly here.punchoutsb wrote:I've been impressed with Van Heerden for some time.

It's really only a few posters who do that, unfortunately they are some of the most active and vocal. There are certain posters who's threads I always enter though, and you're one of them, Verb.verballistic wrote:Great point amigo. I was expecting much more than a few comments in this thread by now.

You're absolutely right about the topics discussed here at Current Scene. The topics and discussions used to be a lot meatier than now, and the shallow pop culture crap now seems to dominate the forum.
If you manage him, who do you put Spence in with next?
