    is this what spence v brook might look like...



    unbeaten southpaw comes to the UK, heavily hyped after demolishing some fringe level fighters, to fight a more proven world level operator in his home town in his first big step up? Sound familiar?

    Spence would be wise to have a look at this fight. Its all well and good saying the crowd wont be a factor but once hes in the snakepit it takes an exceptionally strong mind not to crumble.

    This could be a step too soon for this kid, hes not had anything to prepare him for this. Fighting some kickboxer who pacquiao knocked down 6 times, and an old 40 year old washed up euro level guy does NOT prepare you for kell brook.

    It could look like man vs boy. Hes been fed fighters who cant punch, so he can walk straight through them, theres so much to this kids game that hasnt been proven yet.

    And brook LOVES fighting southpaws, they are bread and butter for him.

    Just warning people cause everyones expecting this to be a close nip and tuck fight, but if one of the chocolate brownies lands on spences chin early on and the crowd starts roaring, this fight could end up being a demolition job. And there are question marks against his chin, lets not forget....

    "More proven" Brook has fought one good fighter. Froch had multiple good wins when this fight happened. Don't wanna hear any "his eye doe" excuses after the fight

    Bragging how Brook loves southpaws is like bragging about spence loving orthodox fighters cause he's ran through all them too Jesus

      Why do you brits keep comparing Spence to other fighters that have no resemblance to his style or him at all?? Spence is Spence not lacy not porter not bute he's much more highly skilled, brook will be getting lit up all fight.

        they all said bute was highly skilled until he got cobra'd, remember when he was built up to be the super fight partner with ward? if i remember i think bute was more of a fave with the bookies to beat froch than spence is for brook.

          I think spence will lose and brook will show why hes underrated. That doesnt mean spence is bad hes good but i dont think hes ready. Brook is as big as him and hes the first actual skilled fighter that will hit him back instead of just being a featherfisted heavybag.

            yeah, maybe spence will come again and prove himself but theyve built him up the wrong way. they should have matched him up with fighters who have a bit of pop in there punches. hes used to just walking through featherfisted guys and it could be a real shock to the system when brooks shots dont bounce off him like algieris and bundus.

              Two different fights and fighters it's like saying they all said Manchester was tough and better but Chelsea still beat them when this is a whole different league Barca vs Madrid and the other teams don't have any view or say on this game.

                Brook has been hurt by fighters that meet that very description.

                Schenchenko had him Hula dancing LOL...the same guy that couldn't hit or hurt Malinaggi.

                The very average Carson Jones busted him up badly and had him on Elvis legs a few times.

                It'll take a lot more to stop this kid than something like Kell Brook.

                  I'm not on the Spence hype but Froch's old nose has more KO power than Brook's entire body. People think that because Brook is big, that he's strong. He's not and comparing him to Froch is an insult to the Cobra.

                    Man, that was one of my favorite nights ever as a boxing fan. Well, evening here in America. Froch whooped Bute's ass. I predicted him to win by stoppage, but not that dominantly.
