    Wrong. He is

    Pretty sure he's got this equation wrong though

    Brook seems to have just skipped a lot of fundamentals, at least Cleverly seems to have them there to improve on.

    fighting some1 like Clinton Woods wouldnt hurt him even if he loses, cleverly looks to have decent power hes above domestic level, its harsh to rule him out this early in his career let him have a few more fights against some solid level operators then we may get a fair idea about how far he'll progress

    The top one is a quadratic equation and if he's still doing them in his last year of a degree then its a **** poor Uni....(and yes, its gibberish as it stands).

    I did Quadratic Equations at high school.

    Looks like he's learning to count too...1,2,3,4

    Thing is, its blatantly staged. They did that to tie it in to Ian Darke's quote...'I bet he's the only boxer that can do quadratic equations'

    :rofl I must have missed the whole thing about him being smart. Pitty they never talk to piper about it seeing as he is slightly smarter than me.

    Prior to the "= KO" bit whats on the board shows the form the equation can take, its not an equation in itself.

    you hit the nail on the head and drove through the 2x4 :good

    Brook does the switch hit just like Camp Ingle ingrained into Jr's/Prince's head which was a bad look vs Desert Storm & Barrera respectively. And at 5'8" with dense thick muscles, I can't see this kid getting down to 135 (maybe 140) so he will have to "man up" and hold serve against this new age of welter. The kid's only 22 so no rush but that chin tuck and shoulder hunch is not technical.
