    A vicious knockout always leads to hyperbole.

    Bring on Spence-Thurman!!!!!
    Yeah but it's absolutely ridiculous. As if Bundu is someone specifically good. His best win is a split decision victory over Frankie Gavin. Let that sink in. And he did not look good doing it.

    It is not bullcrap. And he did fight two mandatories.

    “We’re here for Errol Spence if he wants to play,” said Hearn to Thaboxingvoice.com. “He’s not ready yet. Whenever he wants it. Errol Spence is a fighter, but fighters don’t make the decisions. That’s exactly what I’m telling you,” said Hearn in refereeing to a remark that behind closed doors Spence’s people he’s not ready. “They’re not phoning me up, telling me, ‘Eddie, Spence isn’t ready for Brook.’ I said to them, ‘You want to do that right now?’ [Spence’s management then said] ‘Oh no, that one’s down the line.’ They’re fight Ponomarev next, and then they’re mandatory for Kell Brook, which is 75/25. We love that. But honestly, Kell Brook is ready to fight anyone…Everybody knows in boxing how good Kell Brook is,” said Hearn.

      Yeah, but Bundu had never been knocked out and Spence left him slumped like he just drunk a fifth.

      I am not one of those that base a Spence-Thurman fight on the outcome of their past experiences with the guy, but many do.

          The problem I have with Spence is he's fighting guys much smaller than him. He's a JMW now and will probably end up at MW before his career is over. Fight someone your own size!

          This seems to be the path for talented guys. Crawford and Canelo both have followed the same strategy.

              I really don't know why anyone is hating on Brook off the back of Spence...Brook isn't going to drop the Golovkin fight with the fight 20 days away...that's just moronic. And if Brook-Spence ever happens, it'll probably be at 154 cause I can't imagine Brook getting back to 47 after bulking up. His welterweight career is pretty much a wrap, i think.

                He never has been knocked out. And so what?

                Thurman dropped him in the first round and then decided to work him to develop some skills.

                Who else did he fight? Seriously, you could beat some of the guys on his resume.

                  Bundu's split decision destruction of Gavin made Brook crap himself-
