Comments Thread For: Brook Quit Vs. Spence Because He Was Worried He'd Go Blind

[Sir_Didymus]

first off, i was actually rooting for Spence to win so I'm not actually a Kell brook fan. Your assumption is off. I was just making a point to the person who posted that you can't ever quit and still be considered a warrior. Brook fought valiantly vs Spence and gave him his toughest fight to date. Brook hasn't had the best opposition career wise but within the last 3 yrs he's faced porter, ggg and Spence. Find 3 fighters currently in boxing who have faced 3 better opponents over that same time. I'll wait.

Clever. Pretending you're not a Kell Brook fan then justifying a quitter by randomly asking for 3 fighters who have faced similar competition. How emotional.

What competition exactly? Porter, a fringe level contender with no notable wins at welterweight, took him to a close debatable decision that deserved a rematch. GGG was a complete cash grab that everyone knew he would get destroyed in. Spence just another mandatory like Jo Jo Dan, Bizier that had to be ORDERED by the IBF because of Kell Brook doing everything he can to avoid the fight until he had no other choice.

Please tell us all, as the 147lb IBF champion, what great voluntary defence of his title did he make? Frankie Gavin? LMFAO!!

Please tell us all why he QUIT in his first ever true test, first REAL defense at his natural weight when he faced Spence.

Okay I'll make it easier for you. You find me just ONE fighter in the top ten of every organisation at welterweight in the last 50 years whose opponents rack up a combined total of 940 losses. I'll wait. Thanks.

you said a wholeot but never answered my question so I won't bother to entertain you. I don't care enough about brook to do research on finding a welterweight who's had that kind of competition but stepping in the ring with porter, ggg and Spence and giving them all a good fight isn't something to dismiss as if it's nothing. Honestly, you must be an amir khan fan. That's the only reason why you have such disdain for Brook. Khan and his fans somehow feel that brook losing to Spence was a win for them and somehow nullifies khan being a comedy highlight reel of kos.

Let me get this straight. You replied to my original post which had nothing but facts and in return responded with an extremely reaching and irrelevant question to find 3 fighters randomly who have faced similar competition. To which I answered that you're incorrect about Brooks level of competition, with facts, then I posed you a much easier question to which you have no answer.

Brook fan exposed. Looks like you QUIT too. Figures. Stay on your knees, kid. Me and you really don't see eye to eye. LOL @ eye.

I was writing a live commentary for a guy who didn't have access to the fight. Here was what I wrote at the time by round (missed the first round). When I said 'first clean round to Spence' in the 8th I meant the first round where noone could question who won the round, NOT first round to Spence. I wasn't scoring at the time, but probably had it 3-3 after 6, then giving Spence the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th, so aligned with the boxingscene live scorecard except boxingscene gave the 7th to Brook, but I felt Spence landed the cleaner shots in that round. But main point being the 10th where I felt Brook was being a true warrior. Feeling still stands.

round 2) spence hasn't got his distance yet and doesn't seem sure what approach to use. Brook seems to be keeping it simpler and having better control.

round 3) spence came out more aggressive and landed some nice shots, but then backed off a bit and brook came back well - a bit scrappy though, no clear advanatage either way at the mo

4) scrappy as hell, brook leading and falling in and tying up, both throwing and missing with few clean connects. still no advantage either way

5) spence doesn't seem to know what to do, still scrappy as hell, close rounds, andeasy to score for either, but spence won't get a decision if it carries on like this - justafiably so that is

6) fight broke out, still sloppy, brook just looks to be getting the edge

7) brook seems to slowing and looking more ponderous...needs a second wind, spence got some clean shots in that roundand looks on the up...

8) brook looking horrible now, first clean round to spence, brook defence gone, still throwing but open to clean shots if spence can land them...

9) massive round for spence, brook is a dead man walking, just heart and instinct left - if spence can't put him down now, wouldn't be surprised

10) another MASSIVE round for spence, puts brook down, brook fights back like a true warrior, jeez props to brook, but he's done

Great analysis

Great fight, Brook went out when he felt he couldn't take anymore. I never question a mans motives in the ring because he signed the contract to win. He's been fighting most of his life and has fought top flight competition of late to prove he wants to be the best. Knowing his eye was ****ed in the tenth he still came back like gangbusters to go for the win. Valiant effort but still a loss. I don't drop him to gate keeper status or anything he's still a very skilled boxer, but he simply came up the lesser man in this contest.

I never justified his previous level of opposition, I mentioned porter, ggg and Spence as better competition than what most have faced over the past 2-3 yrs. You never answered that question to prove me wrong. All you did is go on some long winded rant about nothing and tried to discredit porter as opponent despite the fact that he was an undefeated champion when brook fought him. He's also given the top guy (Thurman) his closest most controversial win to date. Typical of a khan fan, which I don't think is too much of a stretch for you. I don't care about brook losing but it's typical of loser fans such as yourself who probably have never thrown a jab in their lives to try and criticize a pro fighter who just took part in one of the better welterweight weight fights in recent memory. If it makes you feel tough to do so from your mother's basement while eating cheese doodles, knock yourself out.

Triggered.

Once again, son, you fail to impress. YOU replied to MY comment full of nothing but FACTS with an IRRELEVANT question of naming 3 fighters who have faced similar level of competition in a 3 year span. I humoured you and gave you a perfect answer which is beyond the reasoning of a salty and bitter fanboy such as yourself.

Yet you are still FAILING to answer my simple questions to which you replied you can't be "bothered". Just like Kell Brook couldn't be bothered to fight on PMSL!!

Once again with this Porter nonsense. Undefeated champion? Against what notable name? I'll wait for it.

Kell Brook, also an undefeated champion at welterweight before taking the knee against what notable name? Bizier? Jo Jo Dan? LOL!!

Paper champions kiddo.

Why exactly are you applying triangle theories to boxing when they don't apply? To justify your quitting, knee taking, bum beating hero? LOL!!

This guy is reaching so hard he's actually resorted to calling me a Khan fan when I've been saying for the longest time he needs to retire. In fact I just did that today on this very forum LMFAO!!

This guy is the special kid at school who will sit down to a 36 question exam at school, leave 33 of those questions unanswered, answer 1, attempt to answer the last 2 questions and quit half way. He'll come away from that thinking he's passed with flying colours LOLOL!!

What a dumbass.

Thanks for amusing me.

didn't read your comment. You're not intelligent enough nor amusing enough to keep my attention and your knowledge of boxing is clearly below that of a casual. I refuse to waste any more of my time dealing with a ****** who wouldn't last 1 round in a boxing ring.

Yet here you are responding because you're red-faced, feeling embarrassed, humiliated and insulted because you thought you were clever till you realised how much of a dumbass you are.

Now out of nowhere, randomly (again), claiming I wouldn't last one round in boxing. That's relevant to you making a fool of yourself how exactly? LMFAO!!

fine, I'll entertain the ****** that nobody wants to play with 1 more time. The fact that you believe you're embarrassing someone shows just how simple you are. Let's put this in perspective, you are on a boxing website, with a troll account that you created strictly to talk **** and refer to pro boxers who have been world champions as quitters and bums. So what exactly does that make you? It pretty much makes you a pathetic loser who's probably the type of person who won't say anything tough to a person's face for fear of getting beat down, so instead you choose to talk down on a message board about people who would literally flatten you with 1 punch. You're only embarrassing yourself with your ridiculous posts and lame teenage girl jokes.
