    The wonderful thing my good man, we will see next Saturday. We can and have gone back and forth. For over a month, all in good fun of course, and the time of reckoning is nigh. I for one can't wait to be proven right.

        We may have been watching a lie for a long time now. Like I've said in another thread, Spence is not ready for these types of fights. But it could be a learning experience to hone his skills. Only thing regrettable is this fight should have happened right after the Algieri and Bizier fights. Spence was calling out Brook before and after the Algieri fight, and Brook/Hearn called his bluff. And all of a sudden Errol camp was saying no, they have to take their mandatory fight with no questions asked.

          Damn mfers going off on LacedUp for bringing up some legit issues with Spence. This ain't fake news you silly mfers. Spence could very well win despite these issues, but lets not act like Spence is the most perfect fighter ever or anything. Spence has flaws & LacedUp brought them up. Whats the f#cking problem lol.

          I'm personally looking forward to this fight like no other fight right now. I think Spence could be "special" like others think, but Brook has experience & other things on his side too while seemingly not very tested in his own right outside of being thrown to the wolves & f#cking up his face to GGG + Porter. And honestly I can't really answer if Spence is the truth or not & hell we still might not be able to answer it in a week cuz Brook is a forgivable L for Spence if he does lose & as mentioned its not like Brook doesn't have some issues that will get him dismissed as "shot" by May 28 by many fans & perhaps myself included if his weigh loss didn't go well or if his bionic eye doesn't perform well on fight night. Lotsa questions with this one & some may still be unanswered after the fight.

                im hoping brook wins and i feel his experience will be just enough to get the nod on the cards Spence has had some top sparring work over the years tho and the stories always say he looked world class

                  No he didn't. Brook was tagged much more against Carson Jones.

                    Brook could win but I don't see the need in pretending that Spence struggled in his last two fights. That's a blatant lie.

                      Did you read the same thing by LacedUp I read????

                      I didn't see him say Spence "struggled". He said if Spence does x or y vs C & D level fighters its cool, but if he does x or y vs a A level fighter, like Brook, it might not be so cool. That was the legit thing he brought up when I read his post anyway

                      Personally I got a pet peeve at calling top 10 & top 20ish boxers like Aligeri & Bundu C & D level, but I understand the overall point he's trying to make & I'd agree with him. If Spence makes the same mistakes he's made vs lesser fighters vs Brook he's likely to be put into much harsher spots then Aligeri or Bundu could put him in.
