    Everybody is using last night as a reason fighter x would destroy GGG.

    So disrespectful to Brook. He is genuinely a class act just a poor resume. I thought Brook was excellent and showed more chin and heart than I thought he had too.

    No hate in here please let's just show respect to a fighter who took a risk and came out looking good.

    Nothing but respect to Brook, he's a very good fighter as well. I've no doubts he'll bounce back and do well.

    Nobody hates on GG because he's white cry baby. He fought a WW, and his comp could be better. That's why they hate on him. ****en cry babies. You hate on GG because he's white. YOU hate on black fighters ALT because they are black.

    brook has given the blueprint to beating gstring and was on his way to doing that but took too much punishment. stay off them damn ropes with this guy and stop going left. the robot will have no clue what to do if a guy circles right and stays off the ropes.

    Brook deserves respect for fighting a MW, and GG gets more credit from me for the way he disposed of Brook. GG had everything against him by taking this fight. GG and Canelo did what they had to do against smaller guys. If you take a fight with a bigger man you better be ready for the incoming. Sugar Leonard was, Sugar Robinson was, Basilio was...

    Agree with everyone in here bar the usual demo trolls

    Brook's earned everyone's respect with that awesome performance against arguably the most devastating fighter in modern boxing

    He cleans house at 154 and beats most at 160

    His stock skyrocketed after last night

    Well then stop crying about a few posters that you think might be black who throw shade at GG. GG is NOT liked by everyone so get used to it. It isn't illogical to hate on GG.

    Brook has been getting praised by everyone everywhere.

    Am i missing something?

    Hes been shown love and respect from boxing legends , americans and his fellow countrymen.

    Rightfully so. He deserves it.

    He won me over as a fan.

    If anything its Golovkin whos getting tored open and apart.

    God forbid he gets outboxed for 2 rnds and automatically he is the biggest fraud known to man.

    The man who came up short is recieving more respect than the man who was victorious.

    I sort of figured that would be the response if Brook put in a respectable showing - rather than give him credit people were always going to use it to denigrate Golovkin. Just how boxing "fans" operate, unfortunately.

    Nothing has changed. All you have to do is hit the champ and he lost in some people's eyes. They said Maidana beat Floyd, Cotto beat Floyd...it happens. This is today's boxing fan. Khan was beating GG. Look at the replay and you see ?Canelo out boxing Khan.
