Comments Thread For: Errol Spence: Jermell Charlo Provided Perfect Sparring for Brook

[Sledgeweather17]

He took alot of shots against GGG. Nobody chinny could've took them or lasted so long. Porter is also a solid puncher, as he proved against normally durable fighters. But we don't know that about Errol yet.

Isn't Porter's KO percentage just about the same as Floyd Mayweather's?

He had a wobble against Shevchenko, but Golovkin hit him plenty and he stood up well. Course, a keyboard warriors who refers to tough guys like Carson Jones as "nothing ass" and thinks a chin that handles five rounds against Golovkin is "trash" has higher standards hey? If Spence can't dent him will you accept he's is a "nothing ass?"

He had several wobbles against the dreaded Carson Jones.

Can't wait to take my ringside seats ! I think a real 50/50 fight

[Sledgeweather17]

Interesting leaps in logic there. Brook easily beat a guy that destroyed Paulie, who destroyed the guy who wobbled Brook. Meaningless really. You could tell anyone what you like about Larte. Most people never heard of him. But the fact is it was the end of the round, and Spences wobble was obvious. Like the fact that you don't know if he's about to show a Khan like chin in with the first guy who's really gonna hit him.

Are you gonna pretend that Spence wasn't gassed from having attacked Larte relentlessly for 5 minutes because the ****** timer forgot to ring the bell? Or did you just ommit that part about the timer intentionally?

I think it's a support of their countrymen in the sport.. The US has too many boxers to just go for our countrymen.. The US produces so many boxers and the level competition is great even at the amateur level.. I could care less what country a boxer is from.. I just support who I like.. They will learn about Spence sooner than later tho #ManDown #StrapSeason #AndTheNEW

In other words....they ain't used to ****

Are you basing your analysis on a 4 & 1/2 round fight in which Brook was stopped via fight injury? You're placing too much emphasis on a fight that he lost in horrible fashion.. I understand that Kell wasn't KO'd in those 4 & 1/2 rounds but that in no way means that he can take hard punches and shake them off.. I've got nothing against Brook, he's a decent all-around boxer.. I just don't see him stopping or winning against Spence.. The pressure that Porter brought gave him issues in the fight and the pressure that Spence uses is more calculated and precise than Porter..

if easter gets a ko of shafikov, then i say "it's a go!" if easter barely wins, then it's not worth it for mikey. Loma and linares will put azzes in seats! Easter is not there yet! Easter has to be spectacular, and hopefully in front of many, many, eyes! I'm very worried for easter jr. Because i don't know if broner knows what he's doing!

actually robert easter sells more tickets than loma and linares combined... Easter sold 14 thousand tickets for his last fight.... He is the biggest boxing star in ohio now... Broner is number 2 now...

KO percentage isn't the be all and end all. Porter is a solid puncher. Not many wrecked Paulie like that. Everyone he fights gives him respect. Spence hasn't fought anyone even that dangerous. Let alone a puncher like Golovkin. Like i say, he might have a great chin. But you ain't gonna know until the night.

I think it's safe to say that he never had anything like the level of wobble Spence did. Looked more like fatigue to me. Mock Jones all you like but he's tough, keeps coming and puts pressure on. He'd have been a good test for Spence at a similar stage. But whatever you think, Spence is untested as far as durability is concerned. Simple.

Yes, but Spence has been able to put pressure on foes that haven't been able to get he's respect. We havent seen him in a real fight yet where we have seen Brook handle himself against a nightmare of a fighter in Porter in a foreign land. And then a very hard puncher, two weights up with a serious injury. But Spence is already being coronated without knowing how he takes it. Some people on here even fought Brook would surrender his belt out of fear of Spence.Errol is good but it's all abit premature.
