Spence may be good, but it's a big jump from his resume up to Brook. And Brook obviously has no fear. Fans going bonkers for Spence like he's some kind of God. IMO he'd be very fortunate to overcome Brook. It will be a bit of a back-and-forth fight, but I just don't see a healthy Brook allowing this Spence kid to show him up.

Yeah we'll see.
If he is the same as the others he'll fight a window cleaner for half the money and 0% of the risk.
Americans simply don't travel. Lacy and Bradley is that it in the last 10 years in terms of top fighters in Bradley's case or hype in Lacy's.
I do sort of think boxing needs an American superstar though. It should probably be Crawford but even he wants to add to his pension pot before he fights anyone good.
Recent history says Americans don't travel. Spence would be an anomaly. The fight will probably inexplicably happen in a high school gym.Comment

Any fighter can have a bad night. I really don't see many flaws with Brook. IMO, if there's any hype it's Spence. Spence has just overwhelmed his B and C level competition up til now. Brook won't be overwhelmed. He isn't scared. Spence has fast hands and some pop, but Brook has that too. This won't be an easy fight for either guy, but IMO it's just a little bit easier for Brook with his experience.Comment

... This can't work like that... It's Spence who would lose more than Brook -- anyway, Brook needs more time to properly heal his orbital bone... So...Comment

"This is the boxing game. And if we win the bid, which I'm pretty sure we will, he has to come over here. He has to come to England and he has to go [back home] with his tail between his legs without that belt."Comment
