    I've seen five fights of Errol.
    One at Olympics, one when he lost to some Kazakh, Lartey and Algieri.

    I didn't know he had as many variations to his offence and defence as he displayed tonight.

    He takes the standard, flawed American style and he adopts some decent quirks.

    Crawford would be in for a tough one with a guy who's game enough to FIGHT him if that's what Crawford wanted to do. Crawford is a beast though.

    Both guys should be applauded. I hope nobody tries to rewrite this as a one sided fight because it was a good competitive fight. Reports are that Brooks eye socket is busted up so you can't blame him for taking the L. He doesn't have anything to prove to anyone.

    " he was outboxing him till he got phuked up" seems to be the new british anthem. the land of the front runners.

    i said brook would not be able to tie up spence on the inside like he did porter, i said spence would scramble brooks giblets, i said spence would ko him in the 9th rd (slight miscalculation, although he almost did), and now im saying he will have a much easier time with thurman.

    You should feel proud as a Texan, Spence and the Charlo twins are going to wreak havoc on 147 - 168 over the next few years. All that sparring with Jermell was probably more of a factor in preparing Errol for Brook than any of his opponents from his actual fights. Seem like cool people too. (well, Errol and Jermell at least, Jermall seems more badass!)

    I predicted wrong. I thought Brook would win a decision. The first 6 rounds went how I predicted the whole fight would; Brook's clever punching and experience would give him the edge. What I didn't predict was Spence's body punching wearing Brook down so much. Glad Spence won though.

    Yeah for me it's hard to pick against a guy with a devastating body attack like spence. I knew it would start to pay off by the mid to late rounds. He's going to give anyone hell because of it.

    Texas News is a joke though, I searched it even yesterday, no news of Spence fighting. Now that he's won, there are 3 articles on it. LOL
