    I believe brook QUIT from a whole combination of things, the eye being 2, being hurt way too many separate times, having nothing left to give and ggg was haunting him.

    not just the eye, like vs ggg he gave up from beimg abused and knowing his corner was just looking for the reason to toss the towel.

    he literally begged Ingle to stop this fight, Igble REFUSE. I hated how Uncle made Kell QUIT himself, that was a breakage in teams type moment

    Brook is a warrior. Just watch the GGG fight and see for yourself.

    he is right. as a champion you want the belt taken away from you

    brook has quit/towel thrown in in 2 of his real fights (total 3 real fights)

    Better to quit than suffer serious long term damage. Khan, Bellew and others are just stupid.

    Khan's career > Brook's career

    Beating Shawn the current WW gatekeeper Porter is his best win.

    Khan peaked aged 25

    Brook peaked aged 29

    Both reached a similiar level of skill

    Difference is Khan fought so many more better opponents throughout his career.

    Brook wasn't managed well enough. Shouldn't have been messing around with No No Dan and Kevin Bizier OR GGG after he beat Porter...and he shouldn't have fought that Robles dude either.

    Welterweight was a HOT division a couple of years back but Brook missed it and now just got smashed by the new young dominator of that division.

    Sucks for Brook he knows he could have done so much more...That tough fight with Jones in 2013 probably set him back confidence wise. That's when he should have been making waves.

    Not everyone has the "luxury" of being KTFO so easily, Khan.
