    Another thread to bookmark and come back to when the fight is over to dish that crow out. Spence hasn't even been tested, look what happened the one time he was hit on the chin, he ran like a b*tch for a round and half. Yeah, he's getting stopped just watch.

        Am definitely expecting him to use the same mauling tactics against spence, but i also do think spence would definitely be trained for that tactics. Spence need space to do his work and damage to the box, and if Brook allows him that space then i really do think he would get stop with body shots.

          ... Right: Spence is most effective at the mid range... Brook would try to stay either too far or too close of him...

            Intriguing fight to be honest, i would not be surprise if it goes either way. Saw tickets for £50 but getting to sheffield from london after work on a saturday would be a pay.

              ... Yes, it should be a great fight -- but only if Brook fully recovered (mentally also)...

              (so: you'll watch it at home...)

                  Brook absolutely destroyed him in the rematch.

                  First one granted. He broke his nose and had him gassed that was a horror show from Brook. But then he showed the resilience and toughness to get over the line.

                  Maybe Spence is that good that he never has to answer questions like that in his career? Common sense says most likely not. Common sense also says that at the very least Brook will likely Carson Jones I Spence himself at a minimum.

                    Brook beat Porter. You don't really beat Porter unless you're very good. Brook would have been exposed that night if he was to be "exposed".

                      Two of the times Algieri got KD was when he was tryna get close to Spence. Spence just took a single step back and nailed him hard.

                      The other time Chris tried to use his legs and Spence chased him down in lightning speed and cut off all escape routes.

                      Brook is fighting a guy with exceptional inside knowledge and ring generalship. The guy is also a good jabber when he needs to be and has a height and reach advantage on Brook.

                      This, to me, is a much harder fight for Brook than it is for Spence. Years down the line ignorant fans will criticize this victory (if Brook wins) because of Spence's resume and prospect status but the people who are in the know will understand what a great victory it was.

                      Having said that, I do believe Spence wins this fight, the only possible reason he could lose is if it turns out that he aint got no chin and/or heart. Otherwise he has the physical and technical abilities to destroy Brook.
