    The size of Brook is one of the problems, he hasn't fought at 147 in years.

    This has Bob protecting his star written all over it. He can try and make a fight with Thurman, Mikey Garcia, Ugas, Ortiz, just to name a few. Instead we have them dragging Brooks down in weight.

    Crawford has superb balance, great footwork and good punch placement, but I really think that he is packing glass.

    What the hell do Brook learn from those loosing experience`s? He hasn`t improved from those losses at all.

    Bud`s switch hitting will be too much for the limited Brook who is a sucker for the jab, Bud`s reach is not smaller than Brook`s.

    Bud goes looking for opponents though instead of waiting to counter he also trows more counter hooks, Brook will not have faced that many counter hooks before, Bud is the best counter puncher that Brook will have faced.

    So you think Brook will do better than Khan did v Bud then.

    Maybe Brook is finished. And yes he shouldn't be at 147. But if Brook still has it, Crawford is getting KO'd. Spence had the size to take a few chocolate brownies and at moments in that fight, even he was feeling those punches. Spence looked shaky against Brook at times, and he was getting outboxed prior to the eye injury. Look at the first 7 rounds. Brook was winning fair and square.

    If weight drained Kell can outdo a big strong Spence and even push GGG onto the back foot, he can bully Crawford physically and even outbox him.

    I worry for Crawford, I really really do. If he beats Brook, he beats the 147 division. If he loses though, his reputation is in tatters.

    Brook by brutal KO.

    No... He's been at deaths door trying to make welter for years.... If he somehow does for this.. I doubt he will have power or sweet f a for Crawford... N I don't even rate Crawford all that much

    A prime Brook would have been a very tough fight for Bud. Now, we just have to see what Brook has got left. He hasn't fought at 147 since losing to Spence and has fought lower level opposition since. He might get stopped quickly or he might roll back the years and win. It's impossible to judge until they get in the ring. The most likely scenario is Brook getting beat up but this is not a certainty.

    Useless fight... Freakin TC and the PBC WW's really know how to screw up a highly talented division.

    Kell's cashing out sadly.

    I wouldn't say Brook has the edge in experience at all. He has far less fights at the championship level than Crawford.
