Comments Thread For: Errol Spence: After I Beat Brook, I'll Demand Thurman Fight Me!

[Butch.McRae]

All I have to do is watch a few of his fights, no names whatsoever on his resume..brook at least had the balls to fight golovkin where he stood no chance because golovkin is a true middleweight fighter..the only thing spence can do is run around the ring and try to outbox brook but once he gets pressured that will also be out of the window..brook will expose him mark my words.

Brook will be out of the picture and fighting Khan shortly...don't worry

Kell Brook is a your typical UK hype-job. Grabbed a belt then fought no-name club fighters for years. He went 7-5 with Porter. Just think about that for a second...He's getting stopped by the sharper, stronger, and more complete fighter in two weeks.

It's time to put an end to all these bum ass champions pretending to be elite.

This guy was trying to make a fight w/ Brandon Rios. There's a reason you pick a bum like that for a defense when there's options everywhere.

We're giving Brook credit for fighting GGG, but not to Khan for fighting Canelo? Both took money for a guaranteed L. Nothing commendable about what either of them did.

You guys are silly.

... Spence needs to "self mobilize"... what's wrong with that?

Spence isn't hyped up at all outside of Teddy Atlas and a couple of posters here. Bigdramshow is lying about and over-exaggerating the hype Spence is getting because he is a big GGG fan that is very insecure about criticism of GGG for taking a fight with Brook who is a WW. he deals with it by going at Spence since GGG has already defeated Brook.

This fight will determine if Spence is ready to handle a huge step up in competition. He's had his development now its time to see where he is in the division. beating Brook would be a huge statement at this point in his career. It is by no means a guaranteed win.

I disagree mate. Near enough everyone is picking Spence, especially most pundits and youtubers. Bigdramashow is a Brit so if you're a Brit and not facing GGG he'll ride with you.

This fight is really a step up for Spence who has never been battle tested and unluckily for him he gets battle tested against a beast like Brook. I really feel when he gets caught with a big shot it's going to be panic mode for Spence. Brooks been caught plenty of times with big shots and he just keeps his cool and doesn't panic.

We can agree to disagree on that. IMO its his insecurity driving this garbage.

if pundits are picking Brook that isn't the same IMO as hyping him up. They are just picking him to win a fight.

You very well may be correct about how he deals with the pressure. I have no idea how he will deal with it either. All I do know is he enters the ring with a good degree of skill (not Floyd, Loma, Crawford level) and power to support it.

All Spence can do is prove himself.

I agree it's time for Spence to back up everything he and his trainer have been saying, because they have said some pretty crazy ****. Saying he's better than Hagler and so on.

Either way this fight was always going to divide BS. But I just feel Brook has been written off here and over the past few months he's not said a word or been at any fights doing interviews. Just been locked away training like an animal. And on the other hand you've got Spence doing interviews near enough everyday, going to fights talking **** and his trainer hyping him through the roof and setting up for a big fall.

Spence is the one "selling" the fight to the American audience so that makes sense that he is out there more. Remember most people have seen him look gdominant (of course comp was weak to medicore) while the last they saw of Brook he took a real battering.

I don't think they are writing Brook off. I think they realize exactly what this fight means for Spence's future if he wins, especially if he wins in dominant fashion in front of a hostile crowd in England.

No it wont. I do think he is better than every Brook opponent except for GGG.

I've been waiting for this more than any other fight this year.

This fight will demonstrate whether Spence is the real deal or hype. If he wins impressively he will be a new star in boxing. Kell Brook can fight so this is a true test.
