    In my 15 years watching this sport...

    I have genuinely never been so happy. This tops Foyd-Pac, Floyd-Hatton, Dre-Kovalev and everything in between. I believed in Spence, I spoke up for Spence, I advocated for Spence and though I got **** for it I never waivered in my belief in him. Congratulations Errol Spence....you are the TRUTH!!!

    I'm really happy for you man. I know you've been believing in him since early on and you were right. He's got that hunger. First thing I noticed about him is that he's got the look of a man who will not be denied.

    I predicted Brook would out-box him and trouble him at first, but that Spence's mental strength would not let him lose this.

        It is weird for me. Yes he looked good, but not as good as I thought he would look? I predicted a KO within 4 rounds so I guess my expectations were too high. hehe

            brook was badly weight drained. i knew it would affect his performance coming down from middleweight and it did. he looked very sluggish. not really impressive.

              He was great.

              It seemed at one point that Kell was sharper but Errol put it on him and from the 7th after Brook got the injury Spence absolutely broke his heart and Brook with his eyes needs to think about retiring unless he is in there with Khan who himself doesn't sound right. Both these lads seem like battle-worn veterans now even if they are only early 30's.

              Him and Thurman will be interesting.

              Spence is world class and cong**** to all the Americans who have been high on him for ages - he's not let you down because if there was a weakness there he would have folded tonight.

                I didn't see two elite fighters in the ring tonight though

                I think Welterweight is disgustingly overrated. Its as if people haven't realised that Mayweather has gone, and Pacquiao is cashing out.

                Thurman and Spence are good, but I think we need to re-evaluate the division

                    It's that hunger man. I know it because I've got it, just in a different facet(school). He is on some "I want to take over the world!!" type **** you know what I mean? Plus the fact that this fight was 50/50 with people (with good reasoning) genuinely thinking he would get beat. It makes it that much more satisfying.
