    Saw it on Philboxing website. Can't have a link posted yet.

    That shuts the door for a Mayweather fight...

    :lol::lol: Mayweather was never going to face a prime ATG like Brook anyway.

    I was hoping he would just to become undisputed welter champion and to **** off Amir a bit. Anyway good fight for Brook also when did Rios become a top welter?:huh

    How long before Khan says he will fight Brook if he beats Rios. Happened with Hatton and Porter.

    I'm also hearing Rios has an offer to fight in Mexico in September. I'm thinking Marquez is coming out of retirement and looking at Rios as a possible opponent. Seckbach just finished interviewing Arum on this.

    He also pretend he didn't know who Senchenko was after Brook beat him, then was shown an interview of himself calling out Senchenko before Brook destroyed him.

    Good fight, I'm definitely looking forward to this. A fight with Mayweather didn't make sense anyway. Brook has one significant victory and that's about it. At this stage in Mayweather's career, it's all about recognizable names or nothing.

    Like Karim Mayfield and Andre Berto :lol::lol:

    And how many significant wins did Maidana have before he faced Mayweather twice. He faced 3 decent fighters and lost to all of them.

    :nono

    Maidana beat ring rated P4P #5 in Adrien Broner who had only been beaten by DPDL and Quintero to that point. An elite win :nod

    ....and Malignaggi, if you add in the points deductions he should've had (i.e if Paulie was to kick him in the nads, hit him after the bell, low blow, forearm all night and punch in the back of the head then he'd get at least 5 points taken if not DQ'd)

    Your mental illness is far too strong for me to tolerate. Brook beats Porter in a close tough fight and he's already an ATG to you. Making actual sense goes a long way with internet forum comedians like you. Kindly f*ck right off, drunkard.

    Close fight :lol::lol::lol:

    Brook won 9 or 10 rounds on any fair scorecard.

    But I forgot your a Broner fanboy aren't you so you are making this nonsense up to suit your hero because Kell's son Shawn schooled him while drained, dehydrated and his soul in Kell's trophy cabinet. :lol:
