    Could you, as a very intelligent person, imagine big money as a deciding factor ?

    I am sure he was afraid of Spence so he decided to take someone easy like GGG. Something about this does not sound right.

    Forgetting matchroom offered spence the fight next his team said no he isn't ready. Says it all. Brook has proved he will fight anybody, so won't be scared of Jeff Lacey mark 2 coming to the uk.

    Spence is overrated and Brook will still be champion at ww unless he wins and keeps the MW trinket.

    I'm a Spence fan... but let's be real here.
    Nobody is ducking this guy, He needs some wins in order to even be in the mix.
    (Rankings don't mean sh*t anymore)

    Keep winning against good opp's then the casuals will catch up. Until then dude will remain a secret.

    Honestly, Spence beats the **** out of both Brook and Thurman the same night. I'm supremely confident in Spence beating everyone at 147, the kid is clearly the truth.

    Line them up and they get knocked out, easy work, easy money.

    I hope so (I also belive in his talent)... But the kid needs to continue to fight but step up the level of opponents in order to be in the mix.

    yeah he's avoided Spence by getting in with golovkin!!!give your head a shake.brook is unbeaten and avoided at his own weight.he needs a big fight and unlike khan who was already damaged goods before he fought canelo,brook actually believes he can win and has shown tremendous ***** Imo.that said I dont see him winning but I don't think he will embarass himself and a good performance will unlock all the big fights down in weight that aren't happening now.

    He already passed his first test with flying colors by stopping Algeri when nobody else could. If he beats Porter then he already has a better resume than Brook.

    Honestly I don't see ANYONE at 147 ****ing with him. Only one who has a chance is Terrence Crawford. That would be the fight to watch 2 years from now.

    So where Alexander and Broner. Spence looks great, but he's pretty unproven.

    Brook looks equally as good.

    of course, clear as day. as soon as spence was in the headlines i called it and said brook will avoid him. this was before he fought algeiri. brook's next move is to move to 154 and add more bums to his resume aftr he gets ktfo by ggg (if that even happens)

    As I have said before, this idea is something that was dreamt up in the imaginations of some Spence fans/Brook haters and they're hoping that if they repeat it enough, people might start to believe it.

    There's no reason to believe Brook feels at all threatened or intimidated by Spence. There is no reason to believe Brook is not 100 percent confident he would beat Spence. Spence has done nothing to make Brook worried. Brook probably believes he would beat all of Spence's opponents even worse than Spence did.

    Well,Dominic Wade got a shot at Golovkin(amazes me why) who was natural 160 lb and he lasted just 2 rds.Stop whinging about Brook getting a shot at the middleweight title,he would not have got it if Eunuch,i mean Eubank didn't bottle it and faced Golovkin.
