    Spence has a habit of leaving his right low. Someone with a good left hook could stop him.

    Brook struggled with Carson Jones, he won't be able to deal with Spence.:deal: Do you see how stupid that sounds? Spence is much better than when he fought Lartey that was 3 + years ago troll.

    Ah I remember the Lartey fight actually, I wasn't too impressed but he was still adjusting to the professionals.

    Spence vs Brook would be such a great fight .
    The sport of Boxing could really use that fight now .
    Unfortunately I just don't see Special K getting his hand raised in this one.

    Is Spence considered to be better than Porter?

    I think where Brook causes issues for Spence is angles and footwork. There were things he did in that GGG fight which was very impressive. Little movements and making GGG miss ever so slightly.

    If Spence doesn't move his head his going to eat shots. GGG doesn't move his head and brook managed to land power shots on him.

    That uppercut brook hit ggg with would send spence back where he came from, no plane needed.

    If ever a catchweight was needed for a fight this would be it

    But its one for the purists. No one has any clue who Spence is, and i doubt anyone outside the UK has much of a clue as to who Kell Brook is

    If Khan doesnt happen, Kell's moving up

    You don't go from fighting boxing's biggest star to fighting a complete unknown. It's almost as ridiculous as the people clamouring for GGG Lara

    Spence don't want the fight either. He;s waiting for Brook to vacate. If he doesn't Spence isn't taking the fight. He will suddenly have a "bigger fight" against a PBC bum like Berto or Broner "with the promise of the Thurman-Garica winner next"

    This.

    I'm not saying Spence doesn't want it but I don't think Al Haymon wants to put Spence in the fight.

    Agreed. Brook would be an idiot to pass up a lucrative Khan clash. That being said, Brook is the one holding up this fight.
