Floyd, Khan, Brook, Bradley wtf is this? Glad I never jumped on his bandwagon like many others. GGG fans should be feeling empty after he brutalizes Brook.
According to Sun Tzu, the ultimate art of war is achieving victory without fighting. In other words, your opponents just yields. GGG is the best boxing example. They duck him, give up belts, etc...
Boxing isn't war it's a competative sport which GGG has competed in his whole life. How he can even justify in his own mind fighting Welters is amazing.
So far it's just Brook, let's not jump the gun. Tom mouthing off and GGG fighting aren't the same thing
Did he go out of his way to really pursue those fights? Brook is a late replacement for Eubank. Tell me what you think he should have done instead on Friday afternoon?
Monzon also fought welterweight Napoles, and Hagler fought Duran, Hearns and Leonard, all coming from welter. Hopkins fought Trinidad and De la Hoya. It isn't that unusual.
I'll tell you what they think, the same people who said Canelo made a smart business move by not fighting Golovkin in a monster PPV fight that was anticipated the world around and fighting Liam Smith on Boxnation will tell you this.... Golovkin should have knocked back a huge payday on a huge PPV event in the UK that will give him a lot of exposure and have fought Lara for far less money, and I mean far less money, on some free to air channel.... They can't say Saunders or Jacobs because they have made it clear they won't fight Golovkin. But you have to remember Canelo made a very smart business move because fighting on Boxnation in the UK because it will boost his profile :yep Now back to reality, Brook is not a good fight, far from it but it's a money fight, a very big money fight and that's all it is.
I don't buy that. This link shows that Lolfler was in talks with Hearn back in April http://behindthegloves.com/tom-loeffler-says-gennady-golovkin-vs-kell-brook-bout-is-unrealistic/ I believe Hearn was stringing the Eubanks along while secretly making Brook vs GGG. GGG could have refused Brook and demanded Eubank or they walk. Hearn would have had to comply. And i seriously doubt that K2 had no option A , B or C. Hyliend and Johnson are mandatory's . There is no reason to believe they would turn down an undisputed MW fight.
*Golovkin turns down Brook fight* "He's too small" Haters "OOOH, AAAH, Golovkin is a-scared of some little guy ha ha ha what a fraud! :nut " Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Make no mistake I'd rather he faced Eubank, but Brook is better than no fight at all after Eubank ducked. :nono
He makes the money and at his age with all ducking going on - I'm disappointed with the choice of opponent but I don't blame a man for making money for his future and for his family its not like ppl on fkrum gonna be feeding his family
The GGG vs Brook fight compares worse than Canelo fighting welters. At least Canelo will lose some weight. GGG will fight Brook at 160. Props to Brook. Shame on GGG for not giving Brook a chance by fighting at a catchweight.
