I'd be very surprised if Brook fought Spence. I'm happy that Spence is the mandatory, Eddie is literally hiding scared under his bed. If it happens, I'm officially a Brook fan.
Exactly spence,Garcia,Thurman,porter all said brook was crazy for fighting ggg in other words they would never dream of doing that let alone do it!
According to Hearns twitter both sides have asked the purse bid date to be pushed back while they close a deal
It amazes me how many supposedly knowledgeable boxing fans get taken in by punchers. Spence has neither fought nor beat anybody of note. If the Brook fight gets made Spence will get taken apart, and suddenly become a hypejob.
The hype Spence is carrying is overboard, but he does look a very good fighter. Not yet. That week could be so Brook could get enough time to arrange going to 154 to fight Cotto.
As a Brook fan I'd be VERY happy if the Cotto fight got booked, I think it's a great fight. The Spence fight will always be there but this is pretty much the only opportunity he will ever have to face the legend Cotto.
