Spence 5’9 1/2”, 72” reach.
Charlo 5’11”, 73” reach.

Not crazy to think that Spence can fight at 154.

Both PBC guys. Easier fight to make than Crawford. Crawford fight still there when ESPN/TR are out of the negotiation.

PPV quality fight that probably sells more than any opponent for either one.

Spence would get clobbered senseless, against the much better fighter/puncher.

Unlike Danny Garcia, I'd assume Charlo would actually try to hurt Spence & win.

So far the voters disagree. (I don’t.)

In terms of skills Charlo hasn't shown anything superior yet. His size advantage, edge in strength and power sound more like keys to victory. But Spence really can outbox him.

Could he get his jab in despite the size disadvantage? I have a feeling he can because it’s pretty solid. I do think Mell will overpower him though. Danny hit Errol with some clean body shots and Errol ate them like a champ. But Danny was best at 140 and Mell is really a middleweight.

Jab should be a one of the main weapons for Spence in this matchup. Jab and move against a bigger guy with huge power.
