Anyone starting to lean towards Brook?

[Stuarty]

Is anyone starting to fancy Brook for this fight? I'm still undecided but even as a Brook fan I said that I gave Spence the edge from the off. I'm starting to like the look of Brook here but I'm still more or less split. I might change my mind again after the weigh in! I usually do this every fight tbh. Change my mind constantly but I have liked the look of Brook the last couple of weeks. I thought Spence looked a bit nervy yesterday.

yeah, did from the start

ive gone for brook to be dropped twice & get up & win 66/1

(as well as my random, both dropped any winner on points 50/1)

I'm kind of hoping it's one of they kind of fights but ideally I'd love Brook just to dominate him and take him out. Nervous for this one!

[sweetscience]

yeah ive got a feeling this will be a proper fight after the first 3 rounds of working each other out

[danconnollyeire]

Dangerous. He stopped Algeri (Pacman/Khan couldn't)
Stopped Bundu (Thurman couldn't)

[Tarkus]

Contrary, my suspicion is getting stronger. This is the end of the line for Brook. He will unravel at the seams.

Funny, I've got a feeling it could be a short violent war and all over by the 3rd round

[big lennox]

I think Brook will be too good for him.

[handsofstone]

Ive edged slightly towards Spence but seeing them together yesterday I just had a slight inkling that Brook might prove too strong

[Boxerbeetle]

I'm leaning further towards Spence every day tbh. Think he'll be too quick & accurate.

[Stuffs]

I am and said as much in another thread. Fancy Kell for a late stoppage.

[youngrell]

Backing Brook to come through some tough spots late on for a points win.

[Noxy]

I'm backing Brook for this one. He's more experienced and is at home.

[sammy95]

I have backed Brook from the start, his accuracy will win him the fight in my opinion.

Brook looked seriously confident during the post weigh in stare down, Spence was bouncing around and couldn't maintain eye contact. I know a stare down means the square root of eff all, but it's a good marker this close to the fight.

I also think Spence's record has been given too much hype, and the comparisons of those 'name' wins are also over exaggerated. Yes, he stopped Bundu and Algieri, but Bundu was two years after the Thurman fight and was also a non title fight. The Algieri fight was a 10 rounder, non title fight, and Algieri is known to carry little power. I'm not saying these stoppages weren't impressive, but to say he has a better record than Brook is a touch unfounded for me. This is Spence's third scheduled 12 rounder, he is a long way from home, and is in against a notoriously accurate fighter in Brook. 50/50 fight, but I think the bookies have got this one wrong.

I've bet brook as his chances are better than the odds suggest so he's the value bet. I think he's an excellent boxer, has to potential to keep it at a distance for 12 rounds and take it on the card. Boy at the weight. Depends on how hungry he is though. His standard of opposition (porter aside) has been poor- the GGG fight was a cash out which suggests he's in it for money. If he's motivated to prove he's the man then I fancy him to win.

[coneye]

i honestly can't make my mind up , Brook has not fought enough quality fighters to be considered great ,, Spence has fought even less and we know the yanks are not scared of promoting there own , ala Lacy ect ... Just a great 50-50 figfht at the moment

[Andrew]

I think he has to end it early myself.

He hasn't been down the stretch since the porter fight and the weight making wouldn't help late on.

Very interesting I think it will be clear in a couple of rounds.

[Cyclops]

I'm going with Brook. Sorry wasn't Sean Porter KOing previously good chinned but faded opponents (I seem to recall his frightening demolition of Paulie M) before his Brook fight?

Also, I know the Jeff Lacy comparisons are a little stale, but that stare down after the weigh in did remind me of the Calzaghe Lacy face off where Lacy looked nervous and looked away first, kind of like for the first time he realised he was going to be in with somebody who could actually fight. I thought Brook looked very confident in that face off, and very up for it.

I think Spence is getting chinned. Come on, Kell!

[lefthook82]

I don't like Brook and would love him to lose but I think he does Spence easy. Watched all his biggest fights and he did nothing impressive in any of them.

[lefty]

They both looked tremendous at the scales. Very juicy.

[KiwiRider]

I'm leaning towards Brook, especially after the weigh in. Making weight and being drained was the swing towards Spence prior to that. Not an issue now as far as I can see, so Brook to come strong mid way and take it with experience and footwork on his side- allong with home crowd advantage

Like to fukk me, you say?

[forcefraser]

Think Brook may take a hiding in this fight and get smashed up. Errol looks great and in my opinion has two wins better than Brook's second best win.
