    Meh. Not thrilled it came to this, but I get it. I wish Eubank or Saunders fancied the job as much as Brook does.

    It's a decent plan B after Eubank pussied out, am I thrilled with it, no, but it does get him a name doesn't it?

    I don't think it's a good fight. This isn't the 80's or 90's when the #1 Welter vs the #1 MW was a big event.
    Brook has no chance at all and the ones that came up with the first odds insane.

    Brook is better as Khan and has a much better chin, but I can't see this one go past 6

    And for the voting options, none of the above.

    This win against brook means less than Crawford's win against Gamboa. At least Gamboa had a fight there before, and was campaigning at 135. It's a shame that the first time little g fights someone with a pulse aka above c level, he's pulling that opponent 2 weight classes up without even a tune up.

    Well since most people on here DO give Crawford full credit for the win, they consider it his best, GGG deserves full credit or at least close to it as well.

    It is a big chance to get a bigger name on his resume even if it's a welterweight.
    If Golovkin can KO Brook he is a big name in the UK. Maybe a Saunders unification or even a Froch fight might be possible then.

    Only people giving GGG any credit are Golovstans.

    The only people who use the phrase Golovstans are the severely mentally handicapped. Grow up jerk off.
