Kell Brook vs. Ionut Dan Ion

yep, and he is coming back from a stabbing, did people him expect him in with Mayweather first fight back

 

still a disappointing miss match, why the **** is that bum a mandatory with all the talent at 147.

 

poor fight

 

shame

 

agree.....it's a complete joke.... the guy has fought pretty much all tomato cans all his career.....steps up once and fights a so called killer who walks in straight lines and eats jab now he's back to fighting nobodies..... if brook is so, so special like hearn says why doesn't he beat a thruman? marquez? berto? guerrerro? so many options. atsch

 

God knows. His record suggests he should be around #15.

 

BECAUSE HE HAS TO FIGHT HES MANDOTORY.
Na ****ing hell how can someone so clueless about boxing have the confidence to write a paragraph like that.

Ydksab seriously.

 

I'm not criticising Brook for having a somewhat easy fight following his injuries and lay off.

However you might like to wonder how and why certain fighters become mandatory challengers and manage to leapfrog other, more established fighters in the same division.

Jo Jo Dan's most notable recent wins were two close decisions over Kevin Bizier, which netted him the IBF intercontinental belt and no doubt propelled him into the number one spot.

Kevin Bizier, meanwhile, came from nowhere to win the vacant IBF intercontinental belt against a badly faded Nate Cambell last year.

Personally I wouldn't deny the likes of Dan or Bizier their chance to fight for belts or get world title shots; after all, new blood has to come from somewhere. However, should they really be in a position to take the mandatory spot when the most notable win between them is an ancient Nate Cambell?

Welterweight is a pretty stacked division; the IBF top ten is full of established, proven fighters and yet the likes of Dan and Brazier can get to the top without fighting any of them?

Anyway, like I say, I wouldn't deny anyone their chance, good luck to Dan, but just because he's a mandatory it doesn't make him any more worthy an opponent and particularly not at welter where there is a credible match up at every turn.

 

What did Danny Garcia do with his mandatory?

you are so far up kell brook's ass that you don't even know what you are talking about it if you approve of this fight. You looking forward to Brook vs. Jones 3?

 

exacly i dont get how these mandatories work how can this man be a mandatory for brooks belt its madness really considering all the fighters out there, they shoudl be entitled to a top 10 fighter of something not straight to the champion without any good wins

 

Yep, that's always baffled me. The rankings seem to just be a frivolous toy for the leading bodies.

 

yeah its not like theres no way around them , i wouldnt even mind seeing brook against any a them fighters who have been on world level just to compare his performance to other,i hate this because its like hes going back to square one

 

After suffering a major leg injury like that you would be crazy to go in for a very hard fight.

The bloke who did it used a machete.. pic in link

Boxing, behind the scenes, is unbelievably corrupt, always has been.
