      Yeah as usual we have people already trying to twist things here. That eye was not close, it was puffy at the bottom but the top was fine, he could see clearly... Berto had both eyes shut and he was still fighting.

      Brook just couldn't take anymore pressure from the body work, am not going to take that eye as a reason or excuse. He got dismantled to the body period.

        He quit, because he didnt want to get knocked out in front of his hometown

        He tried to play the eye crap again for a bit of sympathy, but it's backfired

        He was beaten into submission, this is what happens when you fight 30 plus bums for most of the career

        Brook was never a hardened war tested warrior

          Brook has said on more than one occasion he ruined GGG? I think we understand its GGG who ruined Brook but has not boasted about ruining Brooks career.

          Spence wouild have lost to brook if Brook didnt jump up 2 divisions and got a busted eye and came back down. Spence is good but it was a cherry pick for Spence.

            ... and that's also what I said before this fight: it all depends on how Brook manages to recover mentally and physically from that ****** fight he took vs GGG... no brainer, though...

              A lot of excuses being made, Spence showed he was a level above Brook last night, also Brook couldn't hurt him

              Brook was never going to beat Spence....

                This was all being said before the fight. Brook may have felt confident but theres no evidence of people stepping up 2 divisions from a weight they were drained and come back down to be succesful it dont happen.
                But Spence knows he got brook at right time.

                  ... In fact Spence called him out even before fighting GGG:

                  ... "Spence (21-0, 18 KOs) is Brook’s mandatory after he dismantled and stopped Leonard Bundu in six rounds on Aug. 21, nearly knocking him through the ropes in Coney Island. Spence called out Brook afterward, asking him to drop out of his scheduled match with Golovkin and fight him instead."

Spence was relentless and broke Brook, doesn't matter if he had a hurt eye or not, he was beaten into submission.
                    Are you a doctor? He has had orbital bone problems in the past!

                    He said he could not see out of the eye! What more do you want? Do you want him to lose his sight like countless other fighters?

                      ... The fact is that Brook doesn't mention his eye injury this morning anymore...
