    No way he should go back down to 147. 154 is his weight for sure.

    Kell says his eye socket is broken/fractured.

    Says he was seeing 3 or 4 Golovkins.

    You don't understand basic boxing body language, Kell was not throwing. He was surviving, hurt and uncomfortable. The punches he took from a bigger man caught up with him.

    It could have gone further, the result would have been the same.

    Brook says he has quad vision during the fight, so he was gonna die soon either way. Ref did him a huge favor.

    This is why he ducked Ward. GGG is garbage man. He sucks.

    Hopkins going in on ggg, says he looked vulnerable. I don't buy that he was sick though. I already knew ggg was vulnerable to speed. Quick stoppage is why this fight was a farce overall, they sold their 0. Many fighters in the past have survived bad rounds and come back to win, that's what champions do. So they folded, whatever.

    Golovkin did look exposed.

    But I don't know whether it was intentional, because he was sick, or because he was truly getting beaten.

    I can see it being intentional. His career is clearly suffering because no one wants to fight him, so maybe he did need to hold back. Illness also really does happen. I don't know.

    As for the stoppage, it did feel early, and I was surprised. But Brook really was starting to get hit a lot. A lot. And it didn't seem like he was able to do anything about it. It was like 30 seconds of Brook just getting pounded continuously.

    Brook did well but his size didn't hold up, as expected. Someone tried to tell me on here that Brook is leagues below Golovkin and I think he proved that wrong. Golovkin looked slow, flat footed, and stiff.

    And people think he can beat Ward? Lol

    It was a good stoppage, Brook looked like he was running out of gas rapidly.

    Like Golovkin said "Brook isn't a middleweight" and I think the weight started told.

    GGG says he didn't feel Brook's power; completely dismissing it.

    Brook will thank his corner when can still form coherent sentences 20 years from now.

    Is that a big deal though ? A top level boxer ( which brook is ) should be able to make a tip level aggressive style fighter miss

    U dont think suddenly makes GGG **** or exposed do u?

    Golovkin probably could have ate those shots all night. Golovkin's next opponent would be wise to work Golovkin's body.

    Golovkin seems to hit harder to the body, than he does to the head.
