HBO is Interested in Canelo-Brook for May 2017 (!)

Brook would school Canelo, in my opinion and I don't see any circumstance under which Golden Boy take this fight. They'll duck him. Brook hits harder than most of Canelo's back catalogue.

Would wager that Brook, on the scorecards, won more rounds against GGG than Canelo would manage.

 

Of course Canelo isn't a natural pressure fighter. He's an EXCELLENT counter puncher. Unless he's fighting a slick boring fighter like Lara who is exclusively on the back foot Canelo won't be chasing anyone around the ring. He will do his thing and create openings with his feints and draw his opponent in like he usually does and counter.

I hope you don't think that you can use the GGG-Brook fight to gauge how Canelo-Brook would be. They fight NOTHING alike.

Trout, Lara, and Cotto all fought uncharacteristically... Why? Becauase it was too dangerous to sit on their punches. We have neve seen Lara run as much as he did with Canelo, not before, not after. Same thing with Cotto, and Trout didn't even try to hurt Canelo like he succesfully did against Cotto because he seemed weary of Canelo's counters.

I can't see what Brook brings to the table that Canelo hasn't already seen.

 

FFS...This is just more BS from GoldenToy

 

He doesn't bring anything Canelo hasn't seen, but he has the tools to benefit from his weaknesses which was shown in the fights that you mentioned. Those fights are exactly the reason why Canelo/Brook would be an interesting fight.

 

Opinons are like assholes, we all got one.

 

I respect your opinion, but I cannot agree with it since I've never seen Brook take the role of slick defensive fighter, and I also do not agree he is a better nor a smarter fighter than a fighter of Cotto with all his accolades.

 

Please do tell us what Brook will do to beat Canelo

 

Lol.. Canelo is the superior counter puncher.

 

We all may have one but you are one!

 

Brook was moving nicely against GGG, who was super aggressive.
Cement feet Canelo is perfect for him.
