    Couldn't said it any better, although the money was good the worst thing Brook did was take that GGG fight. He should have taken that Jessie Vargas fight and unified then he could of fought Spence without the flip flopping weight groups, eye socket issues and confidence loss of being beaten up.

    You can tell those who still have never watched Brook fight before.

    Brook was not 'fast' compared to pre-GGG.

    He was slower, weaker and just generally worse in every aspect that i've seen him before.

    It isn't a negative on Spence to say that I was very disappointed with Brook tonight.

    Maybe Spence should move up and try his luck with GGG like Brook did don't you agree?

    I had Spence ahead.

    I had it 95 -94 for Spence (we had the KD)

    Also, what's confusing you is that Spence won his rounds more decisively than Brook, and, going into 11, Spence was on a roll, having won three in a row.

    If Brook had not quit, I expect Spence would have won the eleventh and twelfth, for a final score of 115 - 112.

    He looked good. Just faded late.

    Kell Brook has actually been managed quite well financially to be honest, just not for legacy. The aim of the game is make money and whilst he could have made more up to now, he has certainly made more money than he would have had he stayed with Frank Warren.

    I have been disappointed with his overhyped by Sky competition since joining Matchroom but he's been on and headlined PPV and is/was Matchroom's face fighter after Froch retired.

    Eddie Hearn did not want to spend money and get Thurman, Vargas, Pac over to the UK to fight Kell but got him good paydays taking on low quality mandatories and a voluntary with Frankie Gavin. He headlines a British Welterweight domestic fight with Matthew Hatton. A couple of good B level 'Eddie's final eliminator' scraps with Carson Jones and Senchenko. They didn't want to take he Bradley fight offered to him and pursued the IBF belt when Devon Alexander had it. Timing and options haven't favored his career.
