    If Brook had focused more on controlling the distance than looking for that counter to Spence's jab, it would have been a different fight.
    Brook has shown that he can control and occupy the space between him and his opponent, but he did very little of that vs Spence.
    But Brook kept trying to counter that one dimensional jab of Spence.

    And no, i dont think his eye was the reason Brook lost.

    I want to see what he will be like in his next fight before matching him tough again. He seemed depressed last interview, head down like I've never seen with him. Would'nt be surprised if he comes back a shadow of what he was !

    Khan lost to Peterson
    It does not work like that mate you know that
    You're a good poster we just seem to disagree on a few things

    I agree would love to see a rematch at 154! Spence has talked about moving through the divisions maybe he will while brook is still active

    That would mean Brook would have to boil back down to 147, which I highly doubt hed be willing to do. 154 will be where he campaigns going foward, so for now it won't happen.

    Spence will beat him worse in the rematch. Brook started to fold mentally, which was disappointing, as he was having some success against Spence early on, and keeping him honest. Once you start folding like that mentally, you will start doing it all the time. Charlo is going to seriously hurt Brook at 154

    Brook has to just stay at 154lbs....and stay far away from Errol Spence.

    Focus on a money fight with Khan. If he can pull that win off....i think he stands a very good shot at getting Canelo for the MW title (if Canelo can edge GGG of course, which i think he cannot)

    Brook may mint some real coin in 2018. All starts with getting Khan in the ring though.

    Brook would get beaten down even worse than he did at 147.

    Spence will move up to 154 in 2019 but I doubt the result will be different.
    Brook needs to pursue fights with Sadam Ali, Liam Smith and Khan.

    Brook will be on that strict Euro level diet at 154. I seriously doubt Hearn will let him fight anybody tough.

    Khan got robbed against Peterson. Judges, ref and PEDS. Most had Khan ahead on scorecards.

    Spence didn't beat Brook, Golovkin beat Brook

    Hearn would probably suggest softer touches. Get some wins as it’ll make him more marketable.

    But ultimately, Brook decides. He did opt to fight GGG and Spence after all.
