I have a sneaky feeling that Brook may be the better boxer and outbox GGG

    I like Brook but come on.....GGG is the better boxer here. In just interested to see who is the bigger guy in the ring.

    If Brook is bigger on the night we might see a different style from him I would expect him to try and stay close, fight on the inside, and try to bully GGG. It's his best shot.

    That being said I'll still take GGG by KO in this one because I suspect Brook will try to stick and move and he will get tagged eventually.

    If Brook can carry his power to 160 this will be a great fight. Brook is very skilled and has a solid chin. If he can keep GGG from walking him down with a good jab and solid counters, we're going to see GGGs plan B for the first time.

    Brook might win a round or two, but GGG will win by stoppage - he's the naturally bigger man. Forcing yourself to put on muscle to get to that weight is not natural and it will tell. Natural size and weight always makes the difference.

    GGG hits too hard for Brook to win. He is slick, but he's not got the movement to win.

    I've been a fan of Brook for a long time, and believe me he's seriously skilled. He's got the IQ, the reflexes, the speed and the strenght to cause GGG a lot of problems. Unfortunately, size counts for a lot. I can see him doing very well for 6-8 rounds and the size and power of GGG taking it's toll after that. I hope I'm wrong though!
