Agreed. If I was a Kell brook fan I would be worried right now, especially after a performance like this. Still here's hoping he can redeem himself, I don't like seeing (fairly young) prospects shot down at this point in their careers.
Jones took a lot of shots flush on the chin, you should give him credit for that and for his terminator like tenacity. Kell Brook fought most of the fight with a serious cut, and in spite of all this still won. I still think Khan is a class above Brook but it seems Jones' gutsy effort is being overlooked in search of Brooks' failings. When the dust settles Brook has another W and a step closer to a world title fight but Khan and Brook are on different trajectories ATM.
I don't think it has nothing to do. We have to go according to scheduled fights and put on perspective as things develop and not start losing it and suggesting this one against that one - Khan has to beat Garcia if he wants to move up and that is not clear at all cause the WBO titlist will remain JMM and the IBF has to solve their case at 140 with Peterson. Then, Bradley is not gonna go back to 140 so he has to take on Manny again or someone of that level. Alexander will challenge Bailey and most possibly win a portion of the IBF title and we have to see what happens to the WBC title if Money remains too much time at 154 fighting Cotto again or Canelo... Then you move Brook in but smoothly.
Khan will ALWAYS be to fast for Kell, these Brendan fighters are flawed, one paced fighter's just like Nassem, they don't like to be rushed and love admiring their work, Khan don't give you time for that.
He didn't even use no height and reach against Dani. Killed at mid-range. Says the fan of the fighter that got stopped in 4 rounds. what we can all learn from these posters above. having fast hands does not mean you have superior "boxing" ability. using a **** ton of movement doesn't mean you have good footwork and "boxing" ability. mother****er
Glass vs Steel? Serious note, Khan will be kept away from any one with a punch. Brook would knock Khan out. Mid rounds.
brook doesn't have much of a punch (not that one is needed to ko amir) I'd be rooting for brook but i really don't see anything that indicates he could hang with Khan, he's got a minimal punchers chance though of course when you're dealing with that glass chin. i don't think brook will do much on the world level, Amir has already accomplished more than Brook ever will imo.
