Surprised to see so many Brook.

The best value bet on this fight is Spence UD or stoppage @ +102.

After watching some more fight tape on Spence, I'm more certain of my bet.

Brook had some early success against GGG, but once GGG closed the distance, the fight was all over.

Now, I"m not comparing Spence to GGG, but...Spence, with his inside game, and his excellent usage of body shots to complement his head hunting game will break down Brook and most likely force a stoppage in 8 or 9.

Brook is a sharp fighter but far too stationary and will be a easy target for Spence.

I was 2 rounds off....but pretty much dead accurate.

Good work man, I barely broke even in the end due to the loss on the Groves double and Kell losing, ah well UFC tomorrow.

Jesus. I would have unloaded!

Could u guys not see the damage was adding up on Brook as early as the 3rd and 4th

I did pretty good, but in hindsight yeah I should have probably added a bit more

I also hit on Spence 10-12 at +925.

Brook was getting hit clean.

Smart coaching from Spence's corner. Started headhunting later on giving Kell a punchers chance but I assume his corner corrected him as he went back to methodically destroying his body.
 
I dont like to say this often but that under should've hit. So fucking gotten to right now. Glad Spence won though, proved he's the real deal like a lot of us knew already and for those who didn't know, now they know.... n words. team Spence all day. great fight. Should've won my fucking bet though!

Congrats to winners.

Yeah, that under 10½ was my big hedge on a Spence stoppage against my many Brook bets. Sucks that it just missed.
 
Wish the Groves fight had gone the distance, would have been a much better night for me but glad he got a world title finally.

Gutted for Kell, good guy.

Managed to get on the TKO when Kell's eye first started swelling and ended up still, just.

That was a great bet.

Cap doffed to you!
 
Khan hates or did hate it for so long because he can't stand it if he loses to another British boxer. Looks like he's taking the perfect time if ever to want the fight, you have to wonder about the longevity of Brook's career with both eyes taking significant damage.
 
Brook should definitely at least consider retiring. Not only are eye injuries some of the most dangerous to fighters careers and physical health but they can also cause people to become gunshy and fuck with them mentally in the ring. Any punch can blind you forever, fuck that noise. I'd stop fighting if I was in that position but maybe that's why I'm not a fighter, idk.

Obviously depends on Kell's financial standing and how bad his eye is but if that one's broken too, then he should tread carefully, eyesight is precious. Money comes and goes, only got two eyes. Take care of those fuckers.

Agreed there, maybe Khan then retire as as a last hoorah. He can't handle facing another hitter otherwise it could be life impacting.

i dont think that the fight went past 1:30 of the 11th. the under should cash
 
Yeah I missed it by 17 secs. Felt like less though. Brook was pretty much done but made that valiant comeback in the 10th to keep them from stopping it, I would assume that's what Brook's corner would've done IF Brook didn't comeback, but he did. Tough bastard.

I hit big on Spence to with my UD or stoppage and Spence to win within distance...

It was a good idea
