brook v spence - history repeating itself...

[Rip Chudd]

Nobody accused him of ducking Porter. If anything they criticized him for not taking on Alexander when he was champ as he had the opportunity but the fight kept having to get postponed on several occasions

Spence is much better than Porter. If Brook beats Spence that is really saying something

Technically yes he is. But you can't dismiss the experience department. Porter is a much more seasoned fighter. He knows how to deal with things and make his tools work although he 'isn't as good'.

I'm getting that vibe as well.porter was this unstoppable monster who many picked to destroy brook and we all know how that went.for me spence is nothing but hype until he beats someone decent lets see him destroy somebody who will actually fight back.he gets hit easily someone had a video up showing him getting tagged repeatedly by a bum.brook has size and strength he wont allow himself to get bullied.

you talking about shawn porter? umm no.

Lil latina always pulling against the Americans.

Go back to messico THEN hate.

Umm, nope, Im rooting for the better fighter, race has nothing to do with it. You probably experienced a lot of racism in your life cause all you do is talk about race.

you talking about shawn porter? umm no.

do you not remember people hyping him up like he was unbeatable? because they were on other forums and I'm sure they did it here on nsb especially after he destroyed paulie and sent him to the hospital.

I don't think Spence is anything special

If he beats Brook, then he's proven me wrong.

But if Brook wins, my opinion will remain the same

yeah, they were....

I don't think Spence is better than Porter, but I think he'll beat Brook. Not because he's better, but because I think coming back down to 147 is a very, very ****** decision by Brook. He looked solid at 160, and literally everyone from doctors to Hearn told Brook to go up to 154, but he's too stubborn for that.

He's gonna fight Spence, lose, then talk about how the weight messed him up, which will make him some like a whiny girl.

[W1LL]

If brook beats spence, are people going to change there tune and start downplaying it? Will spence get thrown on the dungheap like other fighters do when they lose there 0 and people pretend like they were never hyped in the first place?

You and I both know this will be the case. One hundred percent this is what will happen. Going off people's logic here and in the US media, a win over Errol Spence, Jr. should put Kell Brook into the top five pound for pound. It won't though, they'll just drop Spence.

A good point you made, comparing Spence, Jr. to Shawn Porter before he fought Kell. I'd go as far as saying Porter had a better resume than Spence, Jr. at that point.
