Big deal, he always looks like that. I look like that and I am almost 50. Here is another news flash muscle is heavier than fat. He still is to make 147. Spence wins by late stoppage. He has the skill.

Since when?

I was a strength and conditioning coach for years and this was, and clearly is, one of the biggest misconceptions in the industry. Muscle DOES NOT weigh more than fat, anymore than gold weighs more than feathers.

A pound is a pound. The actual difference is in the volume associated with those 2 types of tissues.

Muscle has a much greater density than fat and therefore takes up less volume than equal mass of fat.

We all understand what the guy meant, no need to be pedantic.

The boxing haters will be out soon! How can you hate on Brook when he has Porter, GGG, & soon to be Spence Jr on his resume? Guys who haven't done **** gets more credit than the fighters who has! Most people didn't believe Brook would stick around at 147 to defend against Spence. GTFOH

But someone should tell him there's a weigh class between 147 & 160, too big for the welterweight division than too small for the middleweights, so?

Spence fans sounding a little nervous. I don't care what Brook looks like. It ain't a body sculpture competition. What matters is how Spence reacts to being hit by a guy who hits like himself AND has a better boxing IQ.

Brook is fighting two monsters back to back. He gets nothing but credit from me for that. Next Saturday can't come soon enough

We don't need fights just put up gym pics and this forum will tell you all there is know about anything lol.

Top class black fighters are always chiseled its genetic and I bet Spence looks magnificent also, you guys read way too much into a millisecond snapshot in time.

Brook by KO

Spence has no head movement, nor can he cut off the ring. He gets outboxed, outclassed.

Don't think that my comment qualifies as pedantic. Just trying to be accurate. Perhaps I should have replied "Fake News" in response to the news flash comment?

Admittedly, there are a few statements that irk me when someone speaks loosely and authoritative about things tied to a career that I was so heavily involved in. There are a number of phrases or terms that lead to gross inaccuracy. My biggest pet peeve is when someone says that they are going to do Front Laterals in their shoulder workout.

Not trying to be a jerk or anything.

Such a great fight and such a great year for boxing!! Props to Special K for taking such a difficult fight after getting his face broken by GGG. The man's got a sack. Props to Spence for doing what so many of his PBC brethren will not do which is go overseas for a big title fight and fight in someone else's backyard. This is an old school matchup and it will deliver action. The comparisons of Spence to Lacy just don't add up cuz he's clearly a more well rounded package than Lacy was. As much as I respect Brook I have a feeling that Spence will show why everyone is so hyped about him and why he's the betting favorite, tho not by much. If he does beat Brook I would absolutely love to see Crawford move up and face him but in due time.
