    Cmon mate

    Spence put a hurting on Kell

    It was competitive, but Spence really put it on him late & would do so in rematch

    Even at 154

    Responding to a challenge and wanting to avenge a loss. To be expected really.

    Spence will rearrange the molecules in the OTHER eye if they ever fight again. The eye that GGG turned to jelly.
    Harry Greb fought with one eye for years....but Brooks ain't no Greb.

    Last time I checked quitting because of an eye injury isn't being brutally stopped. Bundu was brutally stopped by Spence, if you're looking for a proper example.

    Sans an eye injury, Brookzzzzzzzzzz, finishes what he started.

    He needs to shut up because Spence would have no problem going to the UK for another big payday to make brook quit again lol someone should tell him he beat rabchenko not lomachenko lol

    Rule of thumb... "I'm ____ ______. BUT........" Chances are if you preface a statement like that the opposite of what you're saying is true. In short you're no Brook fan.

    Oh god....I'm tired of defending Kell.

    He outboxed spence up until the eye injury. He was drained, it takes one hell of a fighter to outbox someone while drained and therefore weakened, especially against a vicious fighter in spence. The eye injury isn't down to spence, that is down to Kell's eyes. If you can't see in one eye in a fight, there's only one winner. Once the eye injury happened, forget body punches this and body punches that. You can't defend with one eye...you just can't at the top level, not in modern times.

    He was up after 7 rounds. There is no denying that, and everyone knows, whether you think spence is better or not, Kell Brook was ahead after 7 rounds, 4-3, 5-2, 6-1 even...whatever, he was ahead. In the 7th, the eye went. After that it was all spence. You can't fight with one eye.

    Would Spence had beaten Rabchenko in 2 rounds and in that style? No. It would have lasted 5 or 6 rounds, something like that. Kell Brook at 154 is a totally different kettle of fish. Non-drained, titanium-eyed 154 Brook beats Spence on points, like he should have done at 147 had it not been for the eye. Kell is a warrior, his chin is underrated. He'd have gone 12 rounds with Spence, no doubt. But as I said, you can't defend with one eye. You can attack with one eye, but you can't defend.

    Anyone questioning his heart, chin, toughness and skill needs to take a look at themselves. He is better than Errol.

    Brook is a good fighter but it's a matter of levels like Parker-Joshua. Spence is a BETTER fighter. Doesn't mean Brook can't fight, but Spence is much younger, and he probably has as much of a problem making weight as Brook does.

    Brook's not calling GGG out for a rematch and that's because he knows he was at full strength for that fight and he wasn't coming off a loss and eye surgery after nearly losing his sight in it due to his orbital bone having been shattered into dozens of pieces. That was the fittest, healthiest, strongest Brook that has ever stepped foot in a ring and he knows he lost to the better man and if he couldn't beat him then he never could. That's not the case with the fight against Spence, though. Brook knows he was dead at the weight for that one and that his head was in a bad place after the loss, the eye surgery, the long sleepless nights due to the depression that ate away at him after thinking his career might be over and having to confront the possibility that he might lose sight in the eye. It's not exactly the best kept secret that he turned to the bottle for solace during those dark times either.

    Brook knows he wasn't in any fit state, either physically or mentally, for the Spence fight and he wants a chance to prove it. Spence was close to 100% when he fought him, whereas Brook was nowhere near that and loathed as many of you are to admit it deep down even you know that's true.

    He was whooping Spence, he was badly weight drained and his eye socket broke, even with those 2 things he put in a hell of a performance, at 154 he beats Spence

    brook was beaten up, and he will get beaten up again if they rematch. he looked good for a few rds vs spence and ggg, but that was not a true reflection of what was actually happening.
    watch brooks fights and notice what he does when fighters apply pressure on him. his first instinct is to tie up, and he is usually successful, unless the guy is stronger, in which case he starts to try and get off first before his opponent gets in range to punch. this alternate way of dealing with an aggressive puncher looks good and builds points, but both ggg and spence knew that he couldnt keep that pace up, and since they knew they were already catching him with hard shots, it was only a matter of time.
    brook is not a cardio guy, like pac, margarito, etc... he has to manage his gas tank better, in order to beat guys like spence who keep you moving 3 minutes straight per rd. he used to just wrap himself around those guys, back when he could manhandle them... he wont be doing that anymore at 154.

    Sorry to say but Errol caused that eye injury it didn't magically happen out of no where. Spence beat Brook in Brook's back yard. If Brook's eyes are susceptible to damage then that's part of who he is as a fighter same as the next guy with a bad chin. Spence is better than Brook end of story. It's great that Kell was ahead on the cards after 7 (6-1 are you ****ing nuts) but if he wants to he can go back to fighting 8 round fights cause championship fights are 12 rounds.

    I agree with this, and I'm very partial to Kell Brook.

    I would like to see a 154lb rematch, though, when the time is right. After putting himself through excessive cuts for so long (his fault), Kell may actually not be so prone to busting up at the new weight. (Granted, he first showed damage at 160, but GGG is naturally bigger and a very heavy jolter at that weight.)
