    If he thought he could go blind then I have no problem with him taking a knee and calling it quits.
    But he's no quitter. He's a warrior and **** all you lames who wanna talk bad about him. You cowards always run when it's time to fight so how the **** would you know what it's like to get socked in the face repeatedly?? Think about that before you call another man a quitter you ****ing lames!
    First most of us are not professional prize fighters on this board , second Brook was talking **** saying spence was going to have to take it from him , I`m fighting in my hometown, blah blah. Now I am not saying the guy doesn`t have some balls cause he does but when I think of warriors in the boxing ring and guys who never quit, I think of

    Evander Holyfield
    Mickey Ward,
    Arturo Gatti
    Tommy Hearns
    Diego Corrales

    This is just to name a few.

      Warriors go out on their shield, not their knees. Taking a knee while your conscious equates a quit. Brook is no warrior, save that epithet for those who fight through injury.

        Any mother ****er who says carry on fighting and risk blindness hasn't got a clue. Nobodies in boxing to get that badly injured. Life after career. Anybody saying different I doubt has ever got in a ring nevermind fighting in one

          He was done! To much time in the 11th and he was hurt not just the eye but to the Body as well. Spence Jr was too quick for him to run away from to get it to the Cards and when he tried to Clinch and slow Spence down he got punished to the body

          It was a CLINIC on how you deal with guys who love to Clinch! Don't Cry about it, come prepared for it and Spence Jr came ready for it and made him PAY for all of them! I'm top of a messed up eye I'm sure it is some Blood in his Urine as well.

            1. BROOK needs time off to heal his eyes as well as his mental pic.

            2. BROOK should not be rushed back into ring!

            3. BROOK should stay at 147 if he continues. He doesn't have the 154 power to defeat some of the others in that div.

            4. BROOK might be better off shutting it down for good. He made enough$$.

                The left-handed thudding shots to the body made all the difference in the world. Early in the fight Kell was absorbing them well and had his guard up protecting his face. He was countering very well.

                But by the 6 or 7th round, you could see him leaning on those shots trying to take some of the sting off. While doing so his hands started to drop and that right jab was still coming with the same velocity from Spence. The counters became less frequent. It was inevitable at that point that he'd be stopped.

                It was amazing that Spence didn't stop throwing to the body with the left hand. He could've easily panicked or gotten frustrated and started head hunting when Kell was countering the jab. But he stayed disciplined and got exactly what he planned for. I don't think Spence threw 10 straight left hands the entire fight. It was impressive stuff.

The UK is all fake news BS - usually they only do it when they try to cover up Islamic terrorism and crimes, but I wouldn't be shocked if they now extend it to sports, including boxing.
                  Huh? Fuckin oddball.

                    All Brook had to do was go down with the next combination Spence threw , stayed down and this whole Brook being a quitter wouldn't even be a topic .

                      I'm willing to bet money you've never been socked in the mouth before cause you always run from a real fight!
