    Brook just didn't have to cut as much so he made 160lbs very easily. Remember he wasn't 176lbs at the 30 day weigh in while Golovkin was 165lbs?

    Khan had to eat UP and even then he was out weighed by Canelo by 20lbs on the night.

    There isn't a fighter who hasn't struggled with Porter. Porter, Brook and Spence are very similar level.

    Khan tried to eat his way into the weight and looked soft. Was a stupid plan.

    Well he had more success than Brook did against Golovkin. People tend to forget that.

    I know Lacy was a champ but he got his belt fighting a bum, and who exactly did he beat that was any better than a Algieri? A guy that gave Khan work and boxed the ears off Provodinkov?

    Robin Reid was past his prime so that don't really count

    khan did not have to eat up, he walks around at 160ish. He had to lose weight, very little but he did not eat his way up.

    But it went exactly how everyone expected..khan starts quick takes the first few rounds..canelo stops him mid-late rounds... amirs excuse is always ' i was doing well i was winning' for all of losses. Nobody expected brook to be able to stand and trade with golovkin, thats why he got more credit, it didnt go the way people thought it would

    It is a myth algieri boxed provodnikov ears off, it was close. Nobody would of complained at provodnikov winning that fight. Algieri is a poor fighter. The one test errol has not faced is somebody who gives it back, bundu and algieri are light punchers and arent great boxers. Algieris footwork is terrible

    It's interesting. I remember hearn speaking about purse bids and how when you have the fighter with the greater split (brooks 75%) you can manipulate it in a way so that you can bid crazy money but have already agreed a purse with your fighter behind the scenes so you dont have to pay him 75% of the crazy bid or something. I wonder what he'l bid, it wont do great on uk PPV, nobody knows spence. If it does come i'm sure sky will hype it as much as possible but I can't see it doing very well. It will need a strong undercard which will cost more money

    It will do awful numbers the smart thing for Brook to do I try to get Cotto or Cinnamon at 154. Unless he can get Khan job to stop pricing himself out. Otherwise ditch that 147 trinket

    Haha agreed 100%. I said months ago it was Spence who was ducking. They've played chicken hoping Brook would vacate but now the chickens have come home to roost!

    Team spence is terrified.

    It'll do well enough. Serious boxing fans (the kind who buy PPV) know how good he is and it's always satisfying to see a Yank getting spanked.

    I disagree. Powder puff punches then got knocked out cold.

    The fight went exactly how anyone with sense thought it would. Whenever Khan faces a puncher th same would happen.
    If he grew a pair and fought brook he would win the early rounds.

    Liam Smith lasted longer than Khan did lol

    Be honest, you didnt even watch the Porter fight did you? Struggled lmao!

    Algieri couldnt beat amir khan. That tells how bad he is and Bundu was 48 or something. Spence will get embarrassed if actually has the balls to fight Kell.
