    I'm certain Brook can hurt Spence. He's a better puncher than the Golovkin fight showed, and Spence isnt concrete, he did a little jiggle against Larte and it came at the end of a round.

          I'm sick and tired of hearing that Mayweather waited Pacquiao out.

          It's simply not true. Floyd's team made every effort to get the fight done back in 2009. They sent over a contract proposing a 50/50 purse split and it was the Pacquiao side who walked away because of drug testing.

          That's a fact.

          Plus what sense does it make to wait for a fighter to get old when you are 2 years older than him? That just means you are getting even older yourself while you're waiting.

            I've seen posters say Spence is flat footed with little head movement and can get rocked, but watching brook senchenko I saw the same thing. He had little head movement, he didn't dance and he was hit and hurt. If he shows up like he did in that fight it may spell trouble for him.

              And waiting Mosley out? Floyd begged to fight Shane for the better part of a decade. Margarito was always easy work for Floyd, he would have been made to look like Baldomir.

              To think Floyd waited out Manny is a joke. They both wanted to fight but couldn't make a deal. When they did fight it was the biggest fight in history and Floyd is older.

              Williams would have been a tough matchup, but then he lost and he wasn't on the radar at all anymore.

              Listen, people are always going to hate, but people are totally delusional about Floyd. He found everyone he needed to and almost always he fought fighters coming off win streaks or career best performances. You can nit pick every resume because guys are only in their prime for a few years and you simply can't fight that many at their absolute peak. Floyd's resume stands up against anyone's, period.

                Other styles age better than others, thats unanimously accepted. Defensive styles extend a fighter's career and prime whilst offensive ones shorten them.

                  I won't surprised at all if Brook wins Spence Jr. It's really 50/50 fight for me.
