    Brook gets stopped, he wants only cash out fights from now on. That is evident and clear, kell knows who he can beat and who he will lose to.

    He took a suicide mission against GGG because it was lots of money and it would raise his profile, win or lose. It has worked, now everyone believes he can take on the 154 division, which is stronger then the welter weight division. Can Brook beat the best Middles let alone the top light middles. NOOOOO, Brooke is on a cash out tour

    I think that now we are all back down to earth after the GGG fight and the whole 'Brook is a huge WW' we can finally see things for what they are; the 154lb division may be naturally suited to Kell but the division has fighters who could give Kell big problems and in reality beat him. Canelo would over power him. Austin and Lara out work him. Beyond that who really cares?

    6-0 and KTFO and Brook was stopped from getting a Khan like KO..


    It's box barx..


    But still people won't give in..


    Khan likely crushes all at 147.. he'll definitely get the victory after many fights at 155.. kinda like Floyd succeeding at heavyweight or something..

    By your logic then Eubank has a 0-1 career

    Agreed, I think Kell is an excellent fighter but these guys give him hell. I'd imagine Andrade would be his biggest disparity, while the others just have too much size, power and speed. The GGG fight should not come in to play...sure he landed even buzzed GGG at times because of his accuracy but GGG is a lot easier to touch compared to the guys mentioned above even Canelo throws in some head movement at times.

    I'm not a Brook fan really, but give the guy a break. He has one loss against a super puncher 2 divisions above his previous division. He has shown some decent skills in all his fights, including that one, and I think once acclimated he will be just as big as any top 154 pounder out there. Aside from maybe the dehydration king himself Canelo. His resume isn't great, but all that means is that he is still somewhat of an unknown still. We won't know how he will do at 154 until we see some fights there. The rest is pure speculation.

    Canelo isn't even near the biggest at 154.

    Andrade, Charlos, JRock and Lubin are bigger than almost all of the 160 division.
    They would only be outsized by huge middleweights like CEJ and GGG.

    I imagine they will get even bigger when there bodies develop as they are all very young.

    Kell Brook is 30yo, I some how can't see him catching up to them. I remember seeing an interview and Lubin pretty much laughed at Kell Brook being a big welterweight, Lubin said he wasn't nearly as big as him and Lubin moved up from 147 too!

    Brook is comfortably better than any of the guys at 154. He'd have beaten triple G but for outrageous misfortune.

    Not only does he beat all the guys at 154 he does it easily. Nobody would even trouble him.

    Wait, I didn't say he wasn't going to fight Spence, I said that doesn't want to fight Spence. Spence is his moment of truth and the gateway to big money fights in the welter weight division. I don't think his handlers want that fight because the possibility of him losing badly is very real. His alternative is to move to 154 and we all know what's waiting for him there. His team is trying to get a Pac fight but that won't happen because Pac's people are not stupid. Pac is old and closing out his career and he wants to do that at 140. He is tired of the heavy lifting. Brook has to take his shot and go at Spence come hell or high water. He might not lose and if he does lose and not badly then he is still marketable. If he loses badly ( Which is his and his teams fear ) then that would have a very negative effect on his career. The GGG fight was a sideshow and a win win situation for Brook. He gambled and he lost so now he is back at gate one. Errol Spence. Let's get it on.
