    Mine was 5-1 to Brook.

    Would Brook have won if he didn't have Glass Eye Sockets?

    My theory is yes.

    Thoughts?

    I had it 4-2 Brook through 6 but they were all close rounds, then gave Spence the remaining rounds. Just because two quality guys damaged his eyes doesn't mean he has fragile sockets, it has more to do with the guys who are landing the punches. Spence was giving pretty much as good as he was getting throughout the fight, and later giving better than he was getting. Spence won because he fought a great fight, battered Brook to the body, and wore him down.

    I had the match 95-94 for Spence going into the 11th I believe, so in all likelihood I'd have scored it for Spence had it gone the distance.

    I had it level after 6.

    Idk maybe, Spence's bodypunching and inside work was wearing on Brook and his activity started going into the dumps after about 8 rounds.

    4-2 Spence, he did a good job moving and blocking most of Brooks shots.
    When Spence landed the stadium was quiet but when Brook did the fans erupted even when it was on the gloves.

    That's like saying Khan would be undefeated if he didn't have a glass jaw. Or you'd be faster if you weren't slow. Ultimately it doesn't mean ****. The better man won.

    I thought the first half was hard to score. I gave Spence one clear round in the first half. I think I gave Brook like two, with like three either way. Spence would do well in the first half of the round, and then stop punching, and Brook would take over the second half.

    True.

    No excuses. I gave Brook that excuse when he lost to GGG, you can't have it twice in a row.
