    Kell doesn't have a heart of champion. He quit. I don't blame him. But he is no champion. Spence came back stronger.

    It was the other eye I believe.

    Brook is an elite fighter, he just ran into a another top fighter who was younger and faster and more energetic.

    Spence Vs Porter would be a great fight.

    I think Brook looked better for the first half tonight but his conditioning and eye let him down.

    Let's see how he does up at 154.

    Wow Spence looked fantastic in the second half. Big respect for this win, he looked great! Not sure how badly beaten Brook is mentally from this, I'm curious if he can bounce back in the next 2-3 fights.

    Good fight, wasn't fully impressed with Spence though, as in, he did good, but I don't think he's a once in a generation like people are professing. His stamina mainly got him through this, not his skills.

    Spence's defense is pretty damn good too, had round 1 even, round 2 to Brook, rest to Spence.

    Spence was perfect to stay with Brook early and save enough to be able to pounce late when he could. But I really think that swollen eye affected Brook badly. As soon as it happened Spence found Brook with shots he couldn't find him with earlier, and he stopped punching and backed up, allowing Spence to take over. I also think Spence as he's saying wasn't as sharp as he could've been early, so he could well have won anyway, and in a rematch Brook wouldn't have a chance.

    Great shame Brook got that injury but it`s better he quit than lose his damn sight.
    As for Spence good win but he isn`t as great as they all say to be honest. Hell of a shame the eye injury affected Brook in those late rounds. Good fight though
