If Brook didn't get a freakish injury what round would he have won?

    Lol a two eye man is going to land more punches than a one yd man lmao.

    If spencer had one eye he wouldn't have lasted 15 minutes, he'd still be sleeping.

    Saturday was the night the spencer hype train was derailed.

    Losing (easily) when all things were equal and the struggled to dispose of a man with one eye.

    A little bit embarrassing when you think about it!

    Well, by the 5th I had scored more rounds for Brook against Spence than I did against Golovkin so I guess Spence Jr has also been EXPOSED!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!

    If Golovkin hadn't popped Brook's face into shattered eggshell he may have pulled it off. Brook needs to take a six month break and just heal properly.

    Brook wasn't the only one with a sore eye. Both of your eyes must have been playing up for you to see what you have written here. Brook was all done after 6rds of being in there with that beast. The eye damage was caused by the southpaw jab which regularly snapped Brooks head back. Incidentally Spence was not even at top form in this fight. On his best night he is a 25% better fighter.

    Brook couldn't continue because Spence literally beat the fight out of him, I know Spence is on another level than brook. And I really rate brook but Spence will prove to be a generational talent and he'd break brooks body 100% of the time.

    Stop the excuses that the eye caused anything, the damage was already done. That eye only have brook the excuse he needed. He took a hellish beating even fighting competitively through 6 was great ad it made the fight.

    What alt are you coward? Brook was not the superior boxer he was getting out worked and beat to the body. After 6 rounds the fight was even or spence up 4-2. Instead of excuse making and looking like a fool why don't you give credit where it's due and move on.

    And I consider all of those to be on the mark. But, the key thing is that over the course of those 6 rounds, Spence was in the process of systematically breaking Brook down for the second-half "kill". As a Brook fan at the end of the 6th, I felt that Brook was up 4-2, but it was evident to me that things were conclusively moving in Spence's direction and that it was not going to end well.

    Brook was never going to win under any circumstances.

    Sure Spence's punches may have caused some eye damage. But yea having a 160 pound monster pound on a smaller man is probably a very bad thing for a Welterweight.

    Yes. Once both of Brook' s eyes are bionic cyborg; he will have no weaknesses.

    If I'm not mistaken, Brook was behind on all the judges score cards. Your statement about a freak injury by a lucky windmill punch from Spence is trollingly delicious! Keep up the good work! I am taking you post as a joke, because if you are the least bit serious, then you are the dumbest boxing fan around!

    I had the fight 5-5 after 10 with Spence up by 1pt due to the knockdown. That said in boxing you get punched in the face so an eye injury is nothing freakish. I think Brook could have lasted the distance normally but I think Spence would win on pts. He was not slowing down and Brooks power was not phasing him, even early on. The guy is relentless. They are close to evenly matched but don't forget Spence is still green and Brook is in his prime. His stock went UP after his GGG performance, not down.

    Brook lost the fight on the scales. I'm surprised that Zombie Brook did as much as he did until what stamina he had disappeared.
