Hes an excellent fighter, very good speed, power, chin, combination punching, good stamina. At his best id pick him over spence as i think he has the stylistic edge.
But other than his excellent win over shawn porter, he hasnt done much apart from call out Amir Khan for like 5 years.
The fight with golovkin was absurd, and the broken orbital bone plus the fact he now walks around in the 180's means i think hes finished as a 147 fighter and spence will beat a pretty bad version of brook quite easily.
All very true. I'm clinging onto the hope that the occasion will get to Spence. He has been matched fairly comfortably up until now. Brook has the experience. And something which I noticed about Spence that Pauline malinaggi mentioned in a interview was that Spence doesn't react as well as you would like to see when being hit. At least not for someone who wants to be the best at 147. And Kell can bang when he wants to.
Should be a great fight whatever happens.
I could see a situation where Sprnce does what andre dirrell did when he went to the uk and loses it.
Psychologically ive already seen spence start straying into the "big mouthed american" role, which he neve usually does and is a sure sign he feels at least somewhat threatened.
I don't think that is a sign he's threatened at all, he's just confident and Brook has been hiding trying to sign all the other fights under the sun and making all the excuses already imaginable.
Spence is cutting just as much if not more than Brook so weight loss isn't an excuse
Spence is going to prove he's the truth in this one
