Think we can safely say that KB decapitates Spence.

If Brook decided to stick and move, staying light on his feet, I think he could be very competitive with Spence.

    Seems to be a moot point if Brook is done at Welter.
    lol Spence countering Brook? Spence got hit A LOT by feather fisted bumbs Algieri and Bundu. He would pick Brook off doe.

    If Spence did against Brook what he did against those guys, he would sleep before 5 rounds.

      I agree.
      Spence is strong and in shape, but he's naturally a wild fighter. He throws too many haymakers.

        Big Special K fan but imo Spence beats him. Spence is a much better inside fighter and body puncher than Golovkin, Kell would have the advantage on the outside, but he hasn't got good enough legs to stay on the outside for the whole fight, he's too immobile and Spence will eventually catch up to him.

        Spence can also match Kell for size, he's probably even bigger tbh

          Might happen when Spence moves to 154lbs but for now Kell is safe!
          I like Kell but he had to work hard to beat Porter and Porter is tough but very predictable and one dimensional.
          I see some easier markers coming for Kell and he needs to stick with lesser punchers. Making 154 is perfect for him and not re hydrating over 165lbs is a must. His game is fast hands & feet not power!

            Brook stood and traded shots with GGG for a little while. He can handle spence if he can make 147 again.

              I see Spence as vulnerable to left hooks. He kept his right hand low in his last fight.

                Brook, who has one good win and just got battered in under 5 full rounds...

                This fantasy match requires a lot of speculation because we need to know more about both guys. Fact is though, we've never seen Spence struggle and don't know his ceiling. We do know where Kell's limits are they are a bit lower than many expected.

                  The delusion is strong. Who says Kell Brook comes back the same fighter?.

                  He took severe punishment from GGG. He's been softened up.

                    if spence doesn't KO him, brook outboxes him, but that power is the real deal. its not set in stone, but brook is going to 154 so we will have to wait until he moves up

                      I don't even know where to start...

                      He faced GGG ffs. People picked him to get killed let alone last and be competitive for 5 rounds without even going down.

                      Brook doesn't take shots from Bundu level opponents, Spence has taken shots from him and many more than he should have. That should tell you something.
