Is Brook just unaware of how vicious a legit power punching MW is?

    Yep. I still think Golovkin carries him a bit then finishes him in the mid rounds.

    Do you think Canelo carried Khan too, or did Khan box well up until KO.?

    Khan boxed well. Canelo struggles against quick boxers.

    Disagree that Golovkin will 'carry' Brook. I think he'll win but Brook is too good to be carried. He can dig a bit and has good skills. That makes him dangerous. Having said that, I think body shots will break him down and the fight will be called off somewhere between rounds 6-8.

    You do know Brook will be the same weight? He's not staying at 147!

    Brook has huge power at Welter Weight, at 160 the guy will be like a juggernaut.

    I don't think so. He has sparred with middleweights, he knows what's up

    its comfortably the biggest check of brook's career, i think he was just so desperate for the big payday that he decided to sell his 0 and take the money.

    On a particular round, yes. Otherwise what kind of bookie gives 2-1 odds on any knockout?

    It's life changing money man. He'll get about £4,000,000.

    When all taxes and expenses are taken out he'll walk away with 20-30% of that. If he is smart, he'll bank that money, probably move down to LMW, fight Canelo, make some more cheese, get knocked out and then set up a fight with Khan for big money again.

    I truly believe Canelo carried him.
