    Just saw it confirmed on Sky Sports.

    Very, very disappointed in Eubank.

    Also disappointed in GGG's team that they could not find an actual MW to fight. Surely there's SOMEbody willing to step up?

    Brook is gonna get massacred.

    Two guys that couldn't get a fight due to people ducking decided to just go all in. Fair play.

    Let's just enjoy seeing GGG in Britain,this is no mandatory,seems like Kell Brook got more nerve than all those other four middleweights put together.

    So move to 154.. not jump 2 divisions and face the king middleweight who is showing a level of crippling power and dominance we have not seen in a very long time

    Wow, this came out of left field ala canelo khan. But you know what? I don't hate it. Brook will be a far more durable and better MW than the khan that showed up.

    Poor Gennady....nobody to fight!

    Nope, this blindsided everyone! Including Brook I figure :lol:

    Are there any odds on this one yet? Maybe 60 to 1... 70 to 1 for Brook to make it past 6 rounds :think

    Little G fans have nothing to hide behind now. They critcized THE GOAT Canelo for the same thing. Now they must face the music

    Surely not at 160 lbs.

    I remember months ago Hearn saying Brook told him to get him GGG and people laughed. Brook was deadly serious.

    Is it April 1st? This is a joke right? Incredibly disappointed in CEJ and GGG. I'm a huge Golovkin fan, but I can't possibly support this decision.
