      Canelo easily UD's GGG. Brook and Jacobs exposed him, Jacobs actually won. What im saying is that Spence isn't that invincible force people were talking about. He was losing the first 7 rounds of this fight until the weight and the eye turned it.

      How people think Thurman is gonna get exposed by Spence makes no sense. Spence gave everything he had to beat Brook and had a huge advantage going into that fight by being completely healthy while Brook was weight drained/eye socket issues. Spence is a good welterweight but isn't some heir to Floyd.

          no, he didnt have to quit.
          its part of the package of being a boxer. no one forced him to step in the ring, he went in there knowing he could get injured. he was gassed and gave up, simple as

            Looking at the post fight interview his titanium eye looks perfectly fine. He should be better than ever after surgery.

              Nobody easily UD GGG. Not Canella not Floyd. Key word "easily". With his power he is always in the fight. Like all power punchers Foreman, Frazier Dempsey etc. They struggle with lateral movement and fast of foot fighters

                Brook could have fought to 12 th round if not for eye. Who would have won on points is anyones guess.
                Lol.

                Brook was down on all 3 cards, and well down on 2 of those 3. So he would've needed at least a KD just to get a draw, so no it wasn't "anyone's guess."

                  And Canella is slow of foot. Canella has fast hands and very good combos. Will use movement as best he can stay in the pocket also has much improved D but still their to get hit khan hit him plenty

                    So while Floyd slapped him silly he now will have to take power punches multiple times will be interesting. And GGG will be hit but if cotto took it he can. Real MW cotto welter

                      And he fights different for each threat against Lemieux you saw him power jab and power box he didn't go in reckless not fearing power and looking sloppy like he did against brook. Jacobs used fast lateral movement Canella not half as fast of foot of Jacobs
