For someone so hyped, he doesn't set up his shots particularly well. Just kinda gets low and starts winging a bit wide while coming inside. Whatever works.

At the time of the stoppage, Spence Jr. was leading on the judges scorecards by margins of 5 points, 3 points and a single point.

At least one of the judges agreed with my scoring.

Spence stepped up.
Wish Ingle hadn't told Brook to slow down. Fight seemed to change after that.

He's not even the best in his division.

Don't matter what he said, or didn't say.

Tremendous fights. Had it all on display, guts, skill, heart, power from both.

Thought brook looked good early. Brook dropped work and sharpness, maybe cos of the relentless body work. Spence got stronger from about 6/7 imo

Well done spence though. Definitely justified the hype. He's got a big future in this game

Goof fight, gutted Brook couldn't see it to the end, even though Spence was breaking him down Brook was still live.... Thought Brook was in control and winning the fight, but Spence adjusted nicely and took over in 2nd half.... Hope we see Brook move up to 154 now, no point keep killing himself to make 147. Would enjoy seeing a rematch at 154 too!

*EDIT: When I said "thought Brook was in control and winning the fight" i meant to add in the first half of the fight. Spence was def up at time of stoppage!

It's a true pick em fight. Spence can only get better after this fight. That's whats scary.

Tony Bellew, Amir Khan and Johnny Nelson all criticised Kell Brook for not fighting on and for failing to go out on his shield.

Every single one of them believes that Brook will regret his actions.

Other way around, there'd me more joy
and criticism of Errol as a coward or something.

But Khan shouldn't be talking because he's running from Brook.

Just watched a few rounds. Hardly up for these rinse n repeat type affairs. I thought Sturm retired?

I don't think it would be as good as this one, Thurman will be on his bike all night.

It might be as good as this one, but I'd favor Spence to win pretty comfortably in that one as well. It'll probably have to wait a while though as I'm sure Thurman will be trying hard to get Pacquiao or somebody like that first if he can.
