    Dont kid yourself. Brook's bone didnt just go out on him, Spence broke it with power shots and Spence was coming on. And your little fantasy about if Brook had not been injured and would have won is pure speculation and isnt worth a plugged nickle in the real world. Spence has had a ton less fights than Brook and has a higher ceiling for improvement and Brook has already reached his ceiling. A rematch is not needed, Spence proved his superiority emphatically and isnt anywhere near his peak, Brook already reached his.

    You can fantasize and speculate all you want about Spence's "celing" bla bla bla. The fact still remains Brook was outboxing Spence and winning the fight prior to the orbital bone injury. His surgically repaired right eye held up just fine.

    With two good eyes Brook beats Spence. All he needs is the same doctor to fix up his left eye and let's get a rematch.

    Look at Alfredo Angulo who got his orbital bone broken by Lara then was TEED OFF ON BY CANELO, and his orbital bone held up just fine.

      And I am NOT sold on Spence like most of the clowns on this thread. The kid is tough as nails, hits hard, and seems to have a granite chin. But where's his defense? Brook was landing power shots all night on Spence. Imagine Spence vs Danny Garcia. Let Spence try that "come forward face first style" against Garcia and see what happens.

      After seeing this fight I'm not convinced Spence beats Thurman, Garcia, or Porter.

        Dude, you are living on denial and wishful thinking. There is no fantasy.....anyone with the sense that God gave a Frog knows that Spence has not reached his prime and with a ton less fights, stopped a guy in his prime. Tell yourself all the lies you want if it makes you fell better. Get over it and move along little dogie. The better man won and will win the rematch.

            With all the metal plates he's getting, why not just add in a pair of claws and call him wolverine.

              Just because you can make a ******ed argument doesn't mean that you should, just saying.

                How is over compensating for a previous injury ******ed? Personally I believe it was Spence's stiff jab that did the trick.

                  27 years of age he is pretty much near the prime of his career as a welterweight....although he won he was behind going in to the 9th round and was hardly looking like the future bright star of the division.....my opinion is he's good but he ain't no future sugar ray, fmj or pacquaio ....will never have the skillset of those fighters i just mentioned

                      But the keyboard boxers say he's weak because he quit.
