    I think it's gonna come down to mental fortitude. I'm no expert on Brook but from what I've seen he's nothing special.

      I'm watching some of his old fights - Barrera, Bundu - and he was getting touched up a surprising amount. But then he is a very aggressive fighter, and when you fight like that, you sacrifice defence. There are very few fighters like Duran who don't their compromise defence.

      Spence fights at a very fast speed too but I really feel Brook will have him over-thinking and slowed down after a few chocolate brownie counters. Brook has GREAT timing and ring instincts and if he isn't killed by the weight, I expect him to win this fight. I can actually see Errol hitting the canvas at some points because he puts everything into his shots and is open for counters.

      I think Kell's skills are just as good as Errol's (in fact, maybe better) and he has better experience and is a smarter fighter (right now). Spence is going to have to put him away to get the win, I think.
      Fair assessment

          Looking forward to seeing who wins. What I've seen from Spence and Brook are both quality. But I'm not very educated on Spence and he might not be either in terms of quality.

            You got two weeks. In the words of Errol Spence "DON'T RUN" after he takes Brook's belt

              Hard to predict the outcome of this fight. It got complicated by Brook's weight issues, not to mention the eye injury he suffered from the Golovkin fight, see if it would have an effect or something. Had the GGG/Brook fight not happened, I would probably give Kell a slight advantage.

                He's a mini GGG, not sure he doesn't get more love. Doesn't have to be hype if you're getting excited about seeing him fight.

                Brook vs Spence is one of the better Welter matchups of late.
