    That eye is ****ed. He must have some weak orbital bones.

    It was understandable that he quit. I don't think anyone would like to see him getting seriously damaged which is what would have happened if he continued to fight Spence in this condition. Brook showed heart a round before that but he was never going to win in the 11th and he knew it.

    I think Brook got scared. He thought about his ****ed up eye and didn't want another one.

    Yeah. That post fight interview confirms it. The GGG injury scared him. Might need to retire unfortunately.

    He said he couldn't see. Not scarred.

    Excuses are for cowards

    Not scarred, but scared. Yeah, I'm not sure I believe he couldn't see. Eye doesn't look too bad imo. He lost fair and square but that seemed like a quit job compared to the GGG fight where he actually had an orbital injury.

    Brook quit there is no dressing it up.

    He took a knee and quit. Like Bellew said, even if your vision is effected as a fighter, the warriors code is to keep going.

    I think he was scared and rightfully so. The eye was bad, not that bad but after all, eye is just the tool - you actually "see" with your brain, if you're scared shitless, you could start seeing dragons and stuff too.

    Just shows you how brave undersized HWs are who have these sort of fights all the time against absolute monsters.

    It's a stupid code then. Brook lost the fight, why should he have taken extra damage and risk life changing injuries? To please some boxing fans? Those boxing fans won't give a **** about him after he retires, even the hardcores will hardly remember him 30 years from now.
