and fair play to spence. Could have stayed fighting bums and protecting his 0 like many fighters do, but hes gone into the lions den to take the challenge. If he wins then full credit to him. Even if he loses, full credit to him for trying to prove himself.

Brook would sell his grandmother to Oxfam for that fight..he may get his wish he he gets past Spence...
3rd PPV fight in 2 years for Brook whilst Khambi is left for cannon fodder for up and comers.
Sad.

Originally posted by FrankieBruno View PostLike i said weeks ago, there is nothing out there for Brook, this is the only fight that made sense....i am glad he came to his senses..
There were too many killers at 154, and very little money, he stood no chance up there...
If he beats Spence, he retains his IBF title and can line up a fight with Khan at the end of the year, or face the winner of Garcia/Thurman..
All the people who were saying Spence is a nobody..etc...Spence holds the key to all of Brooks fortunes, this could be a respectable Jeff Lacey like win for Brook or a embarrassing Aurdery Harrison like loss...he has to take the gamble, if he wants that next multi-million £ fight...

I have a feeling whoever wins won't get credit by a lot of people lol. If spence wins people can point to the weight, eye injury and if Brook wins people will say he was just another Lacy.
Honestly I think people are too caught up in making comparisons with past matchups/fighters, just judge the fight based on the styles rather than assuming one guy will be like Lacy, I don't know about this forum because I weren't here but elsewhere I remember some suggestions that Burns-Crawford could end up like Calzaghe-Lacy.

Originally posted by LacedUp View PostHis injury really wasn't that bad. it was a slight tear, not a face smashed in like Margarito.
People on here are talking about the GGG fight as if Brook got battered for 5 rounds which is just not true. It was a good competitive fight and he was fine after the bell and even said he'd fight GGG again.
Idk man. I'll wait for camps and weight ins and decide for sure.

Fuk yea. Love this fight. I just hope Brook still has it in him after getting beat down by GGG. I believe he's going to do it.
