Brook was not GGG's most competitive fight, not even close newbies!!!

    Ouma nearly beat GGG and he is smaller than Brook. Even Willie Monroe looked better than Brook against GGG, obviously Martin Murray did as well.

    Adama, Stevens and Rosado could claim to have put up more resistance as well.

    Brook is a very good Fighter but he has a very limited game plan and no plan B. He needed to utilise his hand and foot speed better but he decided to trade with GGG and that game plan was always doomed.

    Canelo would beat that Brook with ease, so would Cotto tbh. Cotto vs Brook would be a good fight next actually.

    Khan would obviously box Brook ears off but Brook could get the win if he stayed patient and lands something big late.

    Willie Monroe went down multiple times didnt he? lol

    Brook had more success than all the one's you've mentioned.

    Which isn't saying much because they had little to no success.

    No way Khan beats Brook.

    Brook vs Canelo would be competitive and a great fight.

    Khan wouldn't box Brooks ears off, Khan gets timed, hurt, dropped and knocked out.

    Brooks timing and accuracy would be a nightmare for Khan and Khan knows it or he would have taken the fight, shut Brook up once and for all and earned a lorry load of money.

    As for Canelo, Brook has a fantastic chance of beating him, also Cotto is not the fighter he once was.

    Andrade, Lara and Charlo would be very tough fights for Brook, I believe tougher than Canelo and Cotto.

    Brook had more success than Ouma?
    You obviously didn't watch that fight

    Monroe Jr actually had multiple good rounds not just 1 decent round.

    If the knock-down in round 2 was scored Brook wouldn't have won any rounds.

    Ouma didn't have any real success he just survived longer against an ill Golovkin.

    None of the guys you mentioned had any success. Monroe especially not because he couldn't hurt Golovkin and he's a lesser boxer than Kell Brook.

    And Canelo is an average plodder who is just ''durable''. He can take a shot well at 154lbs. A boxer puncher like Golovkin would stop him just the same as he stopped Brook.

    Bs he was giving him all he could handle, no Fighter ever enters the ring 100% so his excuse for that performance is weak as f

    Brook was competative, but at the same time, Kell didn't really seem to have any real gameplan. He fought gallantly but not smartly. He should have had a more intelligent gameplan. He seemed to just get caught up in the moment and got tagged early.

    Many things about this fight were extremely frustrating from a boxing perspective. For one, there was like a built in excuse that "he was a welterweight" which was why he lost. But yet, clearly size wise he matched up quite well to Golovkin, and his punches definetly had an impact on Golovkin.

    I mean Brook landed harder punches on Golovkin than David Lemiuex was able to land on Golovkin. Golovkin was marked up much worse in this fight than he was vs Lemiuex or Wade. So it seemed that Brook truly had the tools to beat Golovkin, but yet he stood and got into a slugfest, literally a street fight with Golovkin instead of using his boxing skill more.

    Khan has blinding speed and great footwork. He will be all over a plodder like Brook. Brook would have to accept he will be behind on the scorecards and be patient to as you say time him. However if he chases Khan his fitness may not hold up and he might start getting beaten up. Khan will look good until he wins or gets ktfo

    What? Martin Murray got beat up for 11 rounds!

    Brook has skills and would knock khan the **** out. Why do you think Khan won't fight him?

    Yeah and Brook got beat up for 4 and a bit rounds. Murray won a couple rounds on my card and he was competitive in quite a few as well. It wasn't the most one sided fight I have seen.

    Khan is much better than most casual fans think he is. I don't care why he hasn't fought Brook I know that fight isn't one sided

    First time I have heard Kell Brook being described as a "plodder". What an absolutely laughable thing to say, you are clearly a complete buffoon..

    Compared to Khan he is very much a plodder. He could not escape GGG that is for sure. He might have good foot speed but he doesn't utilise it, he likes to move his body instead thats why GGG kept banging it.

    I would favor Khan at this point, especially now that we know that Brook has a chink in his armor. If he really has as bad of an eye injury to argue that it was a good stoppage for the towel to be thrown in like that, then I would say that Khan has a good chance of stopping Kell Brook.

    Brook would have trouble winning rounds on Khan, and I'm not convinced he'd be able to knock Khan out. Maybe before fighting Golovkin, before suffering this injury of the eye socket, but now that he's been cracked he wont have he same confidence he had before.
