    Can't blame Spence for not wanting a rematch, Brook gave him all he could handle and more in those first 6 rounds. He can't guarantee Brook will fade in the rematch at the higher weight or will get injured again.

    But Brook is probably Spence's biggest realistic payday. He could make $3-4 mill for the rematch which is 2 or 3 times what he was paid for his last fight.

    Kudos for Brook, he isn't scared of a challenge.Agreeing Golovkin was nuts, agreeing to Spence when Spence was seen as the next big thing and now wanting the rematch to prove himself again is again commendable. But Khan is probably the direction he's headed if they can both keep winning.

      Agree with all of that, but I feel the Khan fight is dependant on how Khan performs in his next fight, he's been out a long time and will probably want 2 or 3 fights before Brook.

      Brook will want to avenge that defeat more than the Khan fight IMO, especially short term. Khan will always be there, hopefully next year in a big Summer stadium fight.

        I wonder how Spence vs Brook would have went down if Brook hadn't fought GGG.

        Thoughts anybody?

            Who says Spence doesn't want a rematch? He's told him he'd fight him again once he wins a title. He's not going to move up in weight for a payday only.

                Rather see Brook fight Charlo or even Hurd. He wants to test himself, take on a world title holder.

                Spence beats him again at any weight.

                  I found it embarrassing to be honest.

                  Acting like Spence is ducking him when he made him quit.

                  Even tried to say come back to Sheffield. If anything it would be Brook going to America if he wants a rematch.

                    you gotta love brooks gladiator mentality...when everyone else is running scared of spence, brook actually gets in spence face asking him to fight. not like these other clowns just name dropping in every interview they do ala mikey garcia.. spence is right here though, what does brook have to offer spence? and brook wants to do it in sheffield? sayyy whatt!?!? if they are to fight again unless brook has a 154 lb title, spence is the a side and brook would have to come here to usa for the rematch! id gladly like to see that rematch! spence would get it done much quicker this time id say around rnd 8.

                      All he could handle? That fight was competitive all the way through the first 6 or 7 rounds.
