Whats your opinion on this fight? Rabchenko lost his last fight against against Tony Harrison. Rabchenko didn't look great in that fight..had good moments but just didn't follow them through... Can't help but think of the Ricky Hatton situation when i think of this fight, its quite similar..could Rabchenko cause the upset?? Or has Brook still got enough to handle him and set up a fight with Khan?
I think Brook will win in style if he's mentally together. Or it could be like this. This content is protected
Brook should win and win well, this isn't a contest in terms of skill, in my opinion it is just to see if Brook has any demons.
I always liked Brook but part of me wants him to lose so we dont get an excise to put on the Khan fight
Yeah, I'm way past caring about Brook Vs Khan, both are past their bests and I believe it's just a blatant money grab.
Brook is a good fighter, very skilled and he is also a true warrior, never feard of anyone, took the Golovkin fight and got hammered there while other did not fought GGG till today. But i think the last two losses destroyed something, not only his eye socket, also something in his mind. If Rabchanka is moving well and can land some rights i can see him winning this. This is prob the fight of his life, the chance of his life. He is good, no question, he has the power and if he has the heart and the right game plan this can be real.
Wouldn’t surprise me at all if Brook lost. Skill wise he should win easy but I don’t think his heart is in it anymore.
I think Brook wins I’m just not so sure about what he’s got left in the tank though regardless if he wins or loses.
Brook is just under elite level IMO. He has just lost to probably the best middleweight on the planet and probably the best welterweight out there at this current time. This is a mismatch guys make no mistake about it...
Just heard this will be for the WBC Silver belt where Rabchenko is ranked at 5. Thought they were going to push Kell down the WBO route but fair play, Brook vs Charlo would be amayonaising.
Think Brook will stop him mid-late rounds barring any psychological damage from his recent fights. Not sure how well he does vs current title holders though
Not on the official Scorecards: 92-97 (Byrd) 94-95 (Parris) 93-96 (Lopez) Brook v GGG: 39-37 (Rousell) 38-38 (Metcalf) 38-38 (Cavalieri)
What Matt means by is quite literally before his eye socket went. After that he was quite clearly losing the round/s combined with the knockdown. Before his eye socket went he was the favourite and his odds were dropping and imo he was winning the fight also.
