When i hear ''I am the weferee'' i know we will get a great fight with not too many ref interuptions, it will be a free flowing fight.
Brook is at the high end of the welter weight spectrum but he is not massive. He is 5'9" with a reach of 69", GGG is 5'10" with a 70" reach. SSL was 5'10" with a 74"reach, Mayweather 5'8" with a 72" reach, Thurman 5'7.5" with a 69" reach. Now, I have read where he had said himself that he was a large welter but he will understand that he is not once he is in there with GGG.
:deal although i do think reach is overstated. id say brook is bigger than mayweather despite having shorter arms. all in the bone structure, and brook is already heavily muscled, its his frame that isnt a middleweights. waterweight or muscled up is no good.
Yeah, he's bigger than Mayweather but my point is that he is not a massive welter weight. Take the current crop of welters and average them out, reach, height, body structure etc. He is not the biggest nor the smallest, He falls on the high end but he is not the high end. He has no issues with making weight. If he was massive, he wouldn't be able to consistently make 147. Ask Canelo.
Brexit showed how ignorant most Brits are. Down in London it might be different but up North they are usually much rowdier and prone to violence.
I got caught up in addressing the massiveness of Brook and didn't respond to the thread which was my intentions. I don't think that the UK is gonna phase GGG at all. He will be his destructive self as usual.
No, there wll be no violence. GGG will destroy Brook in the steel city and the crowd will just have to deal with it.
If its in brooks back yard and he gets knocked out the crowd may well Throw blackpuddings at him and set the whippits on GGG as he goes back to his dressing room.
