Comments Thread For: Brook: In 2-3 Weeks I'll Decide on Facing Spence or Going To 154

[thack]

Really with Brook facingGgg he had really nothing to lose and everything to gain(even if he didn't win) but a loss to prospect Spence he's back at the drawing board with no title or heroic fame (that he loses with the title)

The titles are only ever on loan and if so then it's back to the drawing board.Kell has been granted time and rightfully so with injuries and all but now is the time to make good.Spence or up and that's where it's at.

Why hasn't Brook and Khan fought yet??Just terrible..

[MC Hammer]

Brook is not ducking Spence you dont move up 2 weights to fight the most feared pound for pound fighter in the sport to avoid a prospect. Brook has fought his share of mandatory's its part of what has held his career up in the fact that he only has 2 big fights on his record. He has openly said for over a year he wants big PPV fights i.e. Khan or Pac if he could get either of them fights they would be his next fight. If he can get either signed to be his next fight after the Spence fight then its reasonable to expect him to stay at 147 but if its just fight Spence then move up then whats the point the moment he wins Spence gets labelled a hype job and Brooks wasted another fight.

There is a difference between shooting from the half-court line and missing and taking a mid-range jumper and missing. One is an expected miss which you can shrug off; the other is a miss that makes people question your skill. Brook isn't at the point where the bold statement even applies to him. No one has discounted any of his opposition after the fact that they didn't discount before the fact. He's not Floyd; he's a fighter that really still has to prove his mettle.

He fought GGG for the money that's why he wants Khan. I do believe he is ducking Spence . He has a lot lose if he loses to Spence.

Let the belt go. Outside of trolls and haters, I'm sure plenty of fans would understand the decision. Just move up, fight for a belt there and go on w/ your career. Let Spence fight it out w/ whichever fighter might be lined up for the title and that'd be the end of it.

I'm almost certain Spence would move up to 154 in the future and we might still get this fight

[StefanYHU]

Can't see him physically making 147 again. He's a massive welterweight!

[Patsfan bri]

If Brook can't make the weight that's one thing but he was sure willing to make the weight to fight Khan.

"Spence? hell no, we don't want those problems" is allegedly what Brook's body has been whispering to him.

this guy is more of a delusional clown than Khan gets accused of.

he thinks getting his face Hulk smashed by GGG entitles him to "big money fights". in that case Dominic Wade should be in line to fight the GGG/Jacobs winner.

what has he done at 147 that makes him think he can call Spence a nobody?

at 154 he'll use the same excuse to not fight Andrade, Lara and Jermall.

Khan is in a position of power to demand 70-30 because Brook is the one obsessing and stalking for a payday.

the IBF needs to strip this duck so Spence can move on.

go listen to your body Kell. .

[sicko]

As if you hasn't had enough time already to make a ***ing Decision on what you want to do Kell

He not fighting Spence Jr it is kinda obvious at this point! 154 is loaded with up and coming talent so 154 won't be easier. If he is moving up to 154 at least fight Austin Trout or Vanes Martaroysian or Michel Soro for his first fight at 154. With him being the IBF Champion at 147 why not go straight for Jermall Charlo IBF Strap at 154 that would be a excellent fight!

Blah blah blah.

He needs to fight Spence or else GTFO and drop the belt.
