Even if Brook gets knocked out by Golovkin i would strongly favor him over Canelo

    The future is bright for Brook he might get destroyed by GGG but he has good fights khan,spence, canelo all winnable fights

    I just hope he does not get a sustained beating its a shame the canelo and cotto fights never came of and know he is fighting the 160 monster

    Me too. Especially if it took place at 155/154.

    That is probably the optimum weight for Brook, while Canelo is draining himself to pretend he's too small for GGG.

    Eddie said he tried so hard to get cotto and canelo but he could not get them.


    cotto is a easy win for brook but the canelo fight is 60-40 for brook for me

    I'd of said 60/40 for Canelo as Brook would need a knock out to win

    It is 50-50, for me.

    Canelo gets a lot of hate for the Golovkin debacle, and quite rightly, too. However, people shouldn't let this obscure their opinion of his talent.

    Brook, too, seems to be getting a tad overrated since he has stepped up and accepted the Golovkin fight. Before this fight was signed most people on here saw Brook as a coward and an overly protected fighter and because of this they criminally underrated his talent.

    I am not accusing anyone who has posted on this thread, but just in general, there are a lot of people on this site who have real difficulty objectively ****yzing fighters.

    Yeah you're spot on,no matter how much Canelos and probably more to the point Oscars antics bug me,as a fighter he's box office and has the tolls to take it to Golovkin as nobody has done before.
