    The more you look at them both, the more it seems like a total mismatch,
    anyone see the difference in triple G padwork vs Brook? the difference in power and technique is too much for brook, it's just another khan canelo type fight hyped up by sky sports over there in the uk

    is anyone really interested in the fight?? seriously

    Intested for as long as GGG carries him

    Just like Canelo moped around for the first few rounds against Khan...then after 3-4 bodyshots? Khan wilted and was stopped. Same for Brook...Even if Brook makes it past 6 rounds he will gas after....almost unwinnable.

    Casuals are going to make the odds even more ridiculous come fight night. I reckon you might even be able to get 1/2 on GGG by stoppage by the time they get in the ring, so I'm waiting to place my bet till a few hours before.

    im interested... actually excited for it. yes, its a mismatch, but you know neither of these guys are gonna play tag with each other. brook would definitely be top 10 at jmw, so depending how the fight goes, it should give us an idea of how the players at jww would do against ggg.

    I was interested in Canelo Khan to see how Khan would fare in the challenge, same with this fight.

    I will watch definitely.

    If Brook can get to round 6 GGG might get a bit nervous in front of a hostile British crowd who knows?

    Nothing is a formality but I expect GGG to finish this early

    I'm very interested. I expect the predictable outcome, but anything is possible - it is VERY clear that Brook is not going into the fight to lose and he has had a LOT of fights without losing, this is one of those fights which have the potential to go down in history... funnily enough the notable fights are when you watch the fight not knowing how it's going to end.

    They are both VERY good fighters, here's hoping they both make a good account of themselves.

    Most of Golovkin's fights are mismatches so this isn't really any different.

    I'm probably not gonna watch it live tbh because the fight is likely to be uncompetitive and the outcome predictable.
