Please, at what point did Brook say "I'm done," or "stop the fight."
It's just the same if the ref, or doctor stopped it. His trainer stopped the fight.
I imagine his trainer let it go for a few rounds because of the moments of strength Brook displayed - he showed he could stun GGG, and he was very much in the fight. But after most of the round where he was retreating with his high-guard up, not fighting back, while eating monstrous shots, his trainer decided it simply wasn't worth the risk to his fighter to continue and stopped the fight.
Again, BROOK DID NOT QUIT - HIS TRAINER STOPPED THE FIGHT (and NOT on Brook's word to do so)!
Porter is a welterweight, and hasn't been at 154 in quite some time, like half a decade or more... and while he doesn't have anybody overly impressive, his wins over Malignaggi (equal to Algieri), and Broner and Alexander (better than Algieri win) proved he is a top-10 contender.
Spence beat a fringe top-10 guy in Algieri, but after that, it's all C level and below fighters.
Lol yet Spence is hailed as great. We'll see after the fight is over.
