Wow, not wearing a seatbelt? Praying for Spence, but c'mon son.

^^^ This hope he makes a full recovery and can comeback to the sport at 100 %, But , speeding in a Ferrari and not wearing a damn seatbelt is peak idiocy.

I don't understand why some people choose not to wear seatbelt. Click it and go. It saved millions of lives

This is part of the humbling process. Spence went from a humble guy to arrogance in a very short period of time. Life tends to throw a curve ball at you at that point. From what we've seen he'd been drinking, partying and obviously living recklessly outside of his home life.

I really don't understand (if his): why he has a Ferrari in the 1st place. Like dude you aren't exactly making Floyd Mayweather money.

Hopefully after he recovers he'll be able to resume his boxing career and leave the reckless BS he was doing alone for good.. He's already been given a 2nd chance at life. He's extremely lucky he wasn't killed.

1- I hope he can get well as soon as possible.
2- Always wear a seatbelt
3- Why buy a Ferrari in the USA, these Sammy Hagar's can't drive past 55, at most 70. Meh, Get a f hybrid and be done with it.

Don't Drink and Drive

What the??? Did it summersault or some sht???

[Shadoww702]

Maybe, maybe not. Fighters like Cleveland Williams, Vinny Pazienza, Bryant Brannon all overcame serious life-threatening injuries to fight again.

You would think these dudes would learn from Diego Corrales...
