Comments Thread For: Brook: I Was Beating Spence, But My Eye Went - At 100% I'd Win!

[alexjust]

Brook seems to be the only one who saw him winning against Spence. Judges didn't. Commentators didn't. Unbiased fans didn't. Pretty sure even Eddie didn't. Not that he'd admit it

I still had Spence up basically the whole way but if he wants to go again at 154 with Spence I would watch that. That was definitely Spence's toughest fight up until now and maybe Kell with a good 2 eyes and at the higher weight could really make it a 50/50 fight instead of 60/40 like it was

Not fair comparison.


Once an eye has been beaten to a pulp, it'll only take a few punches for it to go out again.

Just like how Pac took Margarito's eye. And then Cotto exploited that eye injury in the rematch.

Tripple G already took Brook's eye. Spence didn't need to do any hard work really for Brook's eye to go out again.

Spence broke the opposite eye that GGG damaged.

Kell brook.. you did everything in your power to not fight Spence.. u even tried to make believe u wanted to fight GGG.. knowing damn well u stole Eubanks pay.. knowing it would look better to lose to GGG before Spence.. u was almost Koed in the 1st round.. luckily G felt sorry for u and let off the gas.. so u can survive 5 rds.

Glad someone on here keeps it real...that's exactly how I saw it too. Brook had some good moments once GGG put it in neutral but that ended up being bad for Brook because then GGG just put some serious damage on him

Was a clear headbutt that broke Brooks eye. Brook was winning until that happened.

Except the eye that was head butted was not the one that went, idiot!

I think it's most likely that GGG busted that whole area up and then Spence just finished the job. Either that or Brook has very weak orbital bones or is just an incredibly unlucky guy

I think you'll find it was. The headbutt broke his left eye, his right eye was broken in the Golovkin fight.

OR Spence is good and broke his face.

Doctors cleared him and he agreed to the fight. If he wasn't ready then don't take the fight. Keith Thurman has been doing it for 3 years now.

This is a very good comment. The most likely scenario is that the eye that was broken in the Spence fight was significantly weekend by the GGG fight. On another topic, have you guys seen how old these emojis are?

Spence is great, I always rated him high. Probably higher than most people. Not real impressed that he couldn't stop Mikey though.

But again that's not the point - the point is that Brook either 1) has weak orbital bones 2) GGG broke that whole area and Spence finished it off or 3) Brook got really unlucky and a big puncher broke one eye then a big puncher broke the other one, when no one had ever done that to him before, and neither guy has really wrecked someone to that extent before either.

I like Spence but more likely than not that GGG did most of that damage and Spence finished off that eye that wasn't surgically repaired
