    well done to spence... a great fight

    seeing some of my old threads getting bumped now lol and some posts so cba to reply to all individually.

    but well done to spence, mainly for showing the balls to come over to the UK in hte first place, could have hid and cherry picked.

    It was his adaptability that impressed me the most, fight was looking how i imagined it at the midway point, thought kells boxing skills were geting seriously underrated in the build up. But spence showed he could switch it up, some fighters might have frozen in that environment and stuck to the same routine but it was the change of pace that did it.

    People can say about brooks injury, but at the end of the day it was spence who cracked him in the face to cause it.

    Also makes me laugh the keyboard warriors on here 'he quit doe', as if you tough guys would have just plodded on face first. obviously we dont know how serious the injury was but brooks had his eye socket fractured, he can probably recognise when hes done something serious.

    You never know how a fighters gonna manage with the step up and thats what annoys me with the hype, cause i bet a lot of people were sweating around the midway point. But we saw the adaptability and resilience of spence, as ive said, you see attributes youve never seen from a fighter once they fight someone who can crack back.

    Thurman v spence will be a hell of a fight. Two PROVEN world class fighters.

        Brook was boxing well but Spence eventually just powered through him. Tough loss but good on you for taking it on the chin. Cheers mate

              agreed with what you said.....but honestly. brook was feeling it to the body. he quit because spence was coming on way too strong. people just don't focus on the body like that anymore. kell litrrally from round 1 to round 11 to a all out beating to his body. thats why he went on one knee. if u look closely u will see in many of the rounds kell completly abandons protecting his face and put his hands down to his body........

                  ALOT if not ALL fighters are the TRUTH,if fans actually stopped being fanboys.....If you go through my post history you would see MANY HW's who are top guys now who werent THEN when i was told i didnt know boxing...the biggest one ( JOSHUA)..


                  In short If ppl actually studied boxing ( not clips) and stopped being fanboys and dissected fighters skills and attributes they would actually know ALOT more about boxing,as well as sound like they know what they are talking about more than not!
