in the end.,..this just needs to be a good fight...147 has been lackluster on the fight end..especially for a "marquee" division...they need this fight to be a shot in the arm

Exactly. I just want a memorable scrap at 147 this year. Doesn't have to be a classic but the man upstairs can let us know now if it's gonna be another Thurman vs Garcia so we can all prepared to be letdown :scust:

I was on the fence... but now I'm heavily leaning towards Spence Jr.

Just too many factors against Brook IMO...

The eye, the weight, the pressure of fighting a guy he really wanted no parts of (I can understand him wanting a bigger fight, but Spence Jr. deserves the shot so...), the lack of physical advantages he usually holds over other welterweights... he's fighting at home, yet still feels like an underdog, the incoherent banter from his trainer...

Nothing is making me think he wins this except he's more experienced on the professional level and has gone 12 rounds.

You ain't lying breh.

Thurman vs Garcia started out good as hell, but during the 2nd half nikkas ain't take enough chances to make a decent fight turn into a real good one.

Spence doesn't have a style that leads to stinkers and Brook will go down swinging.

I got a feeling that this might turn into a Gonzalez/Cuadras type of fight, where one guy is constantly bringing it while the other guy is forced to fight him off instead of boxing comfortably. If Spence vs Brook is even half as good as that bout, we won.
