Comments Thread For: Brook: This Will Be a Prince Naseem vs. Kevin Kelley Type of Fight

[steeve steel]

Though I like both, flash in the pan Chapelle couldn't carry Dangerfield's microphone. Rodney had a decades-long career and several major films. Dave imploded in less than 3 years on TV. He's the Tyson Fury of comedy.



Kell's interviews make me think he's prepared to lose. He went through it last year and I think his confidence, his feeling of invincibility is broken. That matters in fight like this when you've got a young lion ready to take your head off.

I dare you to watch a caddyshackesque Dangerfield movie from start to finish.

For the rest, i think you're right. Spence is not only hungry but HUGE! Kell is used to have a size advantage. not this time. Still think it will be good though.

KB is going to destroy Spence

Your boy wishing he was going against lacey & Kelley....Errol "The Truth" Spence Jr. wins late T.K.O.

When I read the headline I laughed hard.

I just don't see Brook having much of a chance against Spence. Errol is bigger, taller, longer reach, and is better with the jab and the inside game.

Brook's best chance is to move laterally and not get caught on the ropes...or else he's toast.

Brook has quote possibly the best jab in boxing.

He's also more skilled with better footwork and punch delivery. It's going to be a good one.

I just think Spence is not ready for a fast moving opponent like Brook. This is a schooling type of fight for Errol.

What's funny is that your "fast moving" brook couldn't even be "fast moving" against a slow flat-footed easy to hit lil g. Errol "The Truth" Spence Jr. wins late T.K.O.

I was thinking it will be more like prince vs Barrera. Really Brook should compare himself to prince . The prince was really a has been who never was. You brits talk about Spence being a hype job, prince was a real hype job.

Come on Patsfan your not being fair. Hamed beat the European champion over 12 as a novice. He stopped good durable and experienced guys like Robinson and Medina, decent champions like Johnson, Bungu, Soto,Mccullough, Vazquez and Kelley, better guys than Spence has faced as yet. When he fought up and comers like Sanchez and Alicea he smashed them in style. Losing to Barrera doesn't make him a bum or a hype job. He was a good fighter, who had dominant entertaining wins against men who were always taller and with longer reaches. How quickly we forget.

pete , he was a descent fighter and fun to watch . He did beat a few descent guys and everyone thought he was going to blow through Barrera but we all know what happened in that fight . Now if prince would have continued his career after that defeat who knows how good he could have been. But he didn't he went away in shame and that was the end of him . Why , cause he probably wasn't going to be the fighter he thought he could be and what everyone wanted from him.

Dangerfield is similar to Kell Brook.. They both get no respect..

[petegrif]

Prince didn't go away in shame. His hands were broken. He couldn't fight.

Prince Naseem was on a different level than anybody I've seen in quite sometime he had the charisma, the skill, the entertainment value. Brook is not on Prince level nor is anybody in the welterweight division as far as entertainment value goes. But I'm just glad he didn't use the cliche Jeff Lacey reference. Lol
