Mosley would land a right hand at some stage, and only then will we see where Brook is at. Brook can be walked down, he backs up in straight lines and his defence is crap. Alright, Shane has lost a few lately, but Floyd, Manny and Canelo are all strong units, who were close to their prime and could exploit his decline more than Kell could. The only way Kell wins this is by boxing off the back foot for 12 rounds, there's nothing in his record that can prove that he can out-box someone like Mosley and not get caught. If he starts going into Shane he'll get eaten, Mosley could take his shots all night like they're **** all.
How about Paulie? He just lost his title in a close, split decision against budding superstar Broner. If Brook could do a number on Paulie and stop him, it would - at least comparatively - be very impressive, and would re-instate his position among the welterweight contenders.
I'm with you, if he could put on a performance and stop Paulie then it would give him a higher profile over in America.
This version of Mosley? Big test? In a way yes and no, but Mosley is way past finished. But at the same time, he is been with some great names so if Kell wins a shout out or a stoppage, then it will send a very strong message
I would also call it a test, yes he's past it at top level (although welter top level is a pretty high bar currently, at least in respect to other divisions). Mosley's still better than anyone Brook's fought so far. He's slipped, yes but he's not shot imo. Still, I'd rather someone fresher myself.
You can't keep using that blooy theory? Its like saying JMM ko'd PAC man so PAC man couldn't hurt mayweather cause mayweather gave JMM a clinic. I hate all those theories in boxing. Anything can literally happen. But you just usually have a favourite to win thats all. If brook faces Mosley, Mosley could win but all because sugar Shane took canelos shots doesnt mean brook cant KO mosely.
