eddie hearn "Brook is really a natural light middleweight not a welterweight"

Hearn is gonna get Brook naturally KTFO in the process of naturally lining some pockets.

 

Has Brook ever fought below welter?

 

I think his first ever fight was below and thats it i think

 

The only JMW I've seen him in is Jones 1 and 2. And he looked awful in the 1st fight.

 

Jones 1 was at welterweight jones 2 was at 150 i think? He also fought robles at 150 but was a nothing fight. A classic hearn 'keep busy' fight

 

He only looked awful when he'd gassed. He looked good the first 5 rounds. People always bring this fight up but at the time Kell wasn't looking after himself properly and didn't even have a nutritionist.

 

Brook is big at welter and was always going to move up but not all the way to 160, too small.

 

why is anyone paying attention to shytalker hearn.

 

Not our fault if you don't follow boxing and still want to commentate on it :conf

Beside you just confirmed yourself Rubio was bigger, sooo...

 

yup. most boxers are cutting below their weight to gain advantage because it's what the system allows. i admire confident fighters bloating at their next higher weight class due to better competition and or to challenge themselves like pac. this is when weight jumping is better for the sport.

 

Eddie Hearn is thus trying to say that Kell Brook is an UNNATURAL Welterweight. This raises suspicion.

 

Brook may be able to carry the weight well at 160 lbs, but it still doesn't take from the fact he hasn't faced real middleweights in competition.

The best of the best have their problems overcoming weight disadvantages, to think Brook can overcome such an advantage against a fighter like Golovkin is really asking a lot.
