Errol Spence does not look himself at all ahead of his comeback fight shortly against Tim Tszyu this summer in boxing.
His shadow boxing looks slow and very dosile, rigid and stiff — with little fluidity on motion.
He is very heavy upper body wise on the added muscle for the catchweight fight with Australian Tim Tszyu on July 25th in Australia.
The fight is 4 weeks today and he has clearly been training for some strength and has this almost mini-body-builder type look to him.
This has been shown time and time again to never be advantageous or appropriate for professional boxers time and time again.
Every time they do this and try to become body builders with all the weights and accessive weight lifting it takes away from their fight game.
One of the best examples of that was Frank Bruno at heavyweight. A former world heavyweight champion but his gas tank always let him down.
When he needed it against the best fighters his cardio was not great with all the weight lifting.
Spence has gone over board for this and it shows in the above photo and in his shadow boxing.
No urgency, no excitement or now buzz about him either.
He looks to be going through the motions and does not look excited to be getting back in the boxing ring.
This is after three years out after the last time when he was TKO’d by Terence Crawford as well — think about that.
He is simply too slow now in our view.
No hand speed and his speed of foot is shockingly slow,, as in, quite bad.
This is ominous for him in training footage so far when he is stepping in there with at man who has competed at higher weights than him as well.
In the form of Tim Tszyu.
Spence does not look mobile enough and looks way too mechanical in his training as well, like he does not even want to be there almost.
His mind looks elsewhere to us.
Errol Spence does not look switched on and you can tell he looks like someone that has been in a car accident (which he was some years ago).
He looks shot at this point and stuck in the mud.
His feet are like they are trudging through quick sand.
His reaction times are down and his balance is off in his shadow boxing as well.
Errol Spence could get hurt on July 25th.
