Comments Thread For: Hearn Recalls How He Failed to Convince Brook to Skip Spence

[ruedboy]

Spence's resume is thin and this is his first time in a big fight, happening in the other guy's hometown.
Brook"s big win was a squeaker vs Porter, he's coming off his first defeat, a serious injury and a TKO. Also Brook is not a young guy and he's dropping an additional 13 pounds from his last fight.
Still Brook's fighting at home, he's the champ and he's used to the big stage, so he looks like a good bet at 2 to 1 odds but I don't want to root for him, so I'll hold my cash and root for Spence.lol

Brook's pride & greed could cost him his career. (He needed a real promoter to save him from himself). Should have vacated bcuz he didn't exactly go out on his shield. Another bad move of drawing bad card.
