What if Spence fought the Brook that Porter fought?

    Get over it.
    Because he had a broken eye caused by an illegal headbutt. Wasn't a legit shot that caused the damage which stopped him, so can't be a legit win imo.

    No different than a fighter getting stopped because of a cut caused by an headbutt which the ref missed. Might be a win on the record, but those who know, know it's not legit.

      Brook was the same guy. Never truly added much to his style. His constant holding only worked for a little while against Spence. He never really wants/wanted to truly work inside like Porter does. Spence beats him at any point.

        It’s a tough fight to call. Yes, Brook was doing really well early on but he appeared to have dropped the 6th and 7th rounds before getting damaged in the eighth, be it by punch or by head clash. Spence like him or hate him has pretty terrific stamina. He took the championship rounds decisively last night from a fighter known for his fitness.

          He literally took a knee and quit...

          Spence beat him into submission, you’re delusional if you can’t see that.

            He quit because of damage caused by an headbutt. An headbutt is not a scoring shot.

              He quit cause he was being convincingly beat and lacks heart.

              As I said delusional...

              Blinded by chauvinism.

                If that headbutt caused a massive cut instead of breaking his eye socket (which is worse than a cut) the fight would have been stopped and gone to the cards. As you can see Brook was leading on the cards. Brook would/should have won. You know it.

                  I'd favour Brook.

                    “If”...

                    It didn’t...

                    He lost.
                    He quit.

                    Get over it...

                      A W doesn't tell the whole story though. We both know it's not a legit win and he should get no credit.
