    Good god you must have a negative IQ if you really believe that. Does your mum have to remove all the sharp edges in your house in case you cut your mouth gnawing on stuff?

    All the publicity is aimed at people thinking it's a total mismatch because of size alone. They don't want people thinking it's a farce of Canelo / Khan standards.

    Just shows how massive of a welter Brook really is/was.

    Doubt he'll go back there after this, and not being able to land big fights.

    Who knows? If he actually drops GGG or shows a good account of himself, he might make big money at 154/160. Could fight Canelo or BJS afterwards.

    Brook deffo too big for 147 and is really a 154 fighter..

    Brook's lacks handspeed at 147 anyway, how fast will he be at 160?? with the extra weight he will have average handspeed at that weight in my view.

    Brook is pictured at - or close to - his fighting weight. Still makes sense to come down to 160 for the weigh-in and enter the ring a big middleweight. He'll be 168/170 at the time of the first bell.

    The mistake would be to think 'ok, I'm moving up two divisions I'll get to 160 and stick there'. He's basically following a similar weight-making process to the one he normally does but for a bigger weight division.

    with water weight he could actually b around 166/7lbs

    he would have been silly to have to cut that much fat in a situation were he doesnt need to

    Ingle to exp. for that

    He's 176 right now, he'll lose around another 6lbs in 4 weeks and will be in the late 160's come fight week. He'll just cut water to make 160. Then will enter the ring around 165.

    Lets not forget though, he could of just ate before the weigh in, weight can fluctuate a few lbs up or down depending on what you'v eaten within the last few hours, salty meals etc...
