I understand your point your looking at this rationally but should our interests in fans not be on seeing the best fights. I'll love to see a brook vs Canelo fight or even Brook vs Cotto fight and if those fights can be made I'm all for it. My point was Brook was happy to fight every mandatory until Spence came along, isn't that weird to you the moment Spence was high in the ranking they started speaking about moving to 154??
Canelo would fight him at 155/156 so that means he wont be as drained and second of all I think people are downplaying his skills coz of the GGG duck, although Canelo in my opinion lost to Lara, it was very close and after Rigo and maybe ward Lara is the best defensive fighter on the planet.
no because like i said in my previous post, there has been talk of brook moving up for years long before spence came along. He's been struggling to make welter for years, even before he won the title
He's been in there with Mayweather, Lara, Trout and cotto that prepares him for anything brook has trust me.
Yeah I have thought though for a long time wayyy before brook fought golovkin that i'd fancy brook to beat canelo. I just dont rate his offensive skills at all, it would turn into a boxing match with brook and i'd fancy brook to be better. Canelo is a good fighter though i'm just saying I think we all know what style troubles him and what style he likes... brook would be my pick in that fight. It' be very tough to get the decision over canelo in america though lol
yeah they mention it after every fight, i mean i'd have to look back but im sure after the frankie gavin fight his trainer and brook say he thinks he may only have 2/3 more fights at welter before having to move up because making weight is becoming too difficult. This wasn't out of the blue jumping up to face golovkin, him and his team have been considering going to 154 for a long time. For him to make welter dom ingle said he was having to do 15+ week camps just to make weight
Doesn't matter. I don't see him beating any of the top fighters at 154. His confidence on being an undefeated is gone, so is his height and reach at 147.
he lost to floyd, possibly lost to lara trout was very very close i remember thinking canelos one knockdown just nicked the fight for him &cotto is done and has been for a while. He's also too small for solid 154lbers. But that sums up my point doesn't it, all that you listed he either lost or were close decisions... he looks fantastic against offensive fighters, when he has a fighter in front of him that doesn't press him, he struggles.
You guys are too much. I swear the word duck is almost unknown to many here. If you are taking a top fight, then it's not a duck. Good grief some of you....
I am aware Brook's pre-3G is worse then Khans. Did I say anything to suggest it was better? No, I didn't. Great reading comprehension. You'll fit right in here. I'm a fan of a lot of boxers child. Are you only fans of one or two?
Your spot on and not only that Brook strength is the reason he looks so great at 147. Does 154 guys are very strong and fast he loses or he's physical advantages I'm not sure why people think he goes into that division and bullies those guys
Even your boys from the UK, know this too be true. What do you call it, when Khan says" get a world title than I'll fight you" Kell does it, now its" kell doesn't bring much money "! Lol its a duck... you know like how you claim Canelo did with GGG... don't be a hypocrite now. Be a man.
I agree with you that he lost the mayweather one bad, Lara one was a close loss in my book and trout one was a draw or Canelo close win. Has Brook fought and beat anyone you think would beat those guys you just mentioned?? Other than GGG.
