50/50 fight no one can say for certain who they think will win I still think Brook has another gear in him and yet to show it also Spence could turn out to be something special

I want Brook to win he has some small advantages like home crowd, experience but if Spence wins it will a great win and I will give him props

Spence's Coach: We Have To Beat Brook Up, Round After Round

Derrick James, trainer of undefeated Olympian Errol Spence (21-0, 18 KOs), says his boxer must dominate the rounds in order unseat IBF world champion Kell Brook (36-1, 25 KOs) in his backyard. ...

... Derrick James is a genious... I would have never figured it out...

I doubt he's stronger than Kell Brook , especially just after we just saw him doing like 40kg squats with a sissy pad
Id like to see Spence display his full talent but Brook is a very tough guy and beastly strong at the weight, I'd expect him to win this but hoping Spence shows a champions desire and beats him

can't wait.

It will be a great fight.

I think kell showed heart in the ggg fight and was able to get off punches on a slow footed slow handed middleweight that doesn't work much of a jab. Spence prides himself on his basics. He's very technically sound everything he does he works off his jab and he's got great speed and power and fights at a high pace! I'm picking spence but it's a close fight for me I just feel he breaks down kell late from the body attack

Kell has a punchers chance, but his will is too weak in my opinion. He gives up real estate too easily, let's fighters work their way into his chest and is satisfied to clinch his way to victories. Every close fight kell has had has been a clinch fest, am I the only one to see this? He depends on fighting at a certain distance but he doesn't enforce that distance or a given tempo.

Spence. Easier than most would think.

Unless you're reaching back many years the only opponents he's really struggled with are Porter and Golovkin. Porter causes those problems for everyone and Golovkin was a middleweight. I think his handling of Porter pretty impressive given that he hadn't fought a guy of that standard before. Definitely didn't look weak willed to me.

What happens when Spence takes a big right hand on the chin? Then everything you THINK is going to happen goes out of the window. We know Brook can take a shot, he took Golovkins best shots on the chin. But I have a feeling Spence has chin issues.

Funny stuff.

Gee ya think?!?!?
I couldn't stop laughing after reading your post.

Spence looks like bambi he will be a deer in headlights against brook.
But Srl looked bambiish as well and he weren't too bad.
So spence may be tougher than he looks
