Comments Thread For: Spence Broke Brook's Left Orbital Bone, Surgery a Possibility

[richardt]

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

Since this is Spence's first top welterweight, I'd say he is a year to two from his prime and Brook just past his prime as the result of damages from two broken orbital bones. But no one is the next SRL, Floyd, Pac, etc.

Biggest thing I noticed was Brooks' doctors name is Mohamed Ali! Kinda ironic. Brook is either gonna retire or come back being 25% robot, from all the metal. Anyhow it was a good showing for both men, but most especially our Errol Spence #bringingstrapback2USA, unscathed

His surgeon was Mohamed Ali and his main sparring partner for the Spence camp was Amer Khan.

True story bro, lmao!

His right orbital bone is already stronger due to surgery and his left is soon to follow. Take the brittle orbital out of the equation and Spence loses to Brook.

Spence isn't a slick boxer. He just comes forward and hits hard, which is great, but that might not be enough to beat a Garcia, Porter, Thurman, guys who can **** pretty hard and don't have brittle bones.

Thurman wouldn't last 10 rds vs spence,hes the hypejob who straight up ran like Usain Bolt vs Garcia. Spence is going to clean up ww,many were saying the same things as you,as reasons hed supposedly would be beaten by brook,yet like in many of his fights there will always be could've,would've,shouldve but didnt. Boxing is not fought on paper,each fight is completely unique,every fighter who loses couldve, would've shoulda,but didn't.

You cant claim that if brooks didnt bltch out due to punch accumulation that he wouldve won, that's ludicrous its like claiming that if he was bigger hed have beaten ggg, we dont live in the what if,the reason he couldn't win vs both was because those fighters were stronger better fighters.

The fact that Spence made him quit shows how much power spence has, he would always be too powerful for him hes a power puncher, brook can have a whole face made of Titanium Spence will always be too strong, thats the point here being a better boxer than spence means nothing if fighters cant handle his power & cant hurt him. Thurman would be destroyed worse than brook.

Also brook was losing on all 3 cards in his own hometown with eddie hearn judges,so surely he was rightfully getting beaten if even judges partial to uk fighters agree, just as I predicted the 1 uk judge had spence by only 1 rd & the others rightfully had him down by 3rds & 5 rds. I even said before the fight that 1 judge would already have his card filled out beforehand favoring brook.

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

Because the large majority of Spence's punches landed to Brook's body. If I'm to believe that Brook spent the entire night getting hit in the guts, and wouldn't protect his body due to concern for an inured eye that didn't get hit very much (due to Spence trying to break the healthy one, in addition to the constant body attack), then I would have to conclude that Brook is an awful tactician and not world class. This obviously isn't the case. If you seriously believe that Brook left the majority of his body unprotected to protect his eye, you're simply not a fan of boxing. Not even a casual.
