Brook is just a better managed Clottey nothing more nothing less.

    Very big , strong welter , ok jab , but beyond that not really that good in any department , speed is ok , punch out put not bad.

    I think these two fighters have a lot of similarities , but one is managed better

    thoughts?

    I think this thread is terrible.

    Brook's jab is just "OK"? It's one of the best in the division.

    it can only be compared to the best in the division if its put up against the best in the division.

    He was out jabbed by Jones in the first fight.

    lets see that jab against someone with a bit of head movement then you can judge.

    its no better than Clotteys.

    Considering that I think Clottey was a better fighter than most WW today, thats a compliment actually. Personally the Clottey that gave Cotto and Judah fits would probably beat almost every welterweight today not named Floyd or Manny.

    Clottey was underrated but I think Brook is better.

    In fact WTH are you talkin about? They're nothing alike. Brook uses head movement, Clottey turned into a turtle when under fire.

    Their offense isn't the same either.
