    Looking at GGG seems he hits the ring at about 170lbs on fight night, can't seem to find any info on Brook. Anyone have any genuine sources on his fight night weights ?

    Brook is the same size as canelo

    He just drains himself to fight at 147 he is massive porter and thurman are thought to be big welters but when brook fought porter the size difference was crazy

    Brook holds the ibf belt, so he can't be more than 10 pounds from his fight weight. So probably 156.

    I speculated about 155 to 157 seems a reasonable amount to rehydrate just wondered if there were any official records or reports on his fight night weights.
    It's reported in less in the UK than the US so never easy to find

    People need to stop trying to make Brook out to be bigger than he his. He's not the same size as Canelo because Brook can make 147, Canelo can't. They're different sizes.

    This is wrong. the weigh in is only in the morning, after that you can continue to put weight on. His fight night weightis defo in the 160's

    Maybe. Really no one knows, we'll have to see what he weighs when he and Golovkin fight.

    168/169 I can't see that your talking 12/14 lbs more than his speculated fight night weights from his last 3 bouts

    'speculated' and not my words... hearn said that will be what brook comes in at. He also said brook is heavier than golovkin right now and won't be pounding the weights to add weight before the fight.

    GGG will have at least a weight division on him IMO

    I wouldn't take Eddies word on anything but Brook does walk around heavy that's easy for everyone to see always has those chubby hamster cheeks going on

    This. Despite their fight night weights (which is mostly water) Golovkin will still be the bigger man. Brook is talented, I just hope the size disparity isn't too much, I'd like a competitive fight.
