    Oh dear !!!!

    Ok , my theory behind this " HYPOTHETICAL " thread !!!

    Is that all the current " top " WW's are tied up , at least for the interim , even the fringe contenders are tied up , and there are 1 or 2 at the weight that i just don't think fancy Brook too much , Brook runs the risk of losing momentum simply because there are just a lack of available opponents @147 , quite rightly stated Frank quoted he offered Brook Bundrage and he refused siting that he is a WW and he wants fights @WW , i suppose thats fair enough but he has had a distinct lack of opportunity at the weight , this has been a problem for nearly 2 years and it seems there is no outlet , unless the Jr WW's step up to fight him , Judah tied up , Khan (even though he won't fight him anyway) , Peterson , Bradley , all tied up , that leaves Maidana , who has been mentioned by Eddie ??

    Hypothetically speaking !!!!

    If Brook was to move up to 54 , just for a name , my question was who would you like to see him fight , and who would he beat ???

    :lol:

    Paul Williams had barely won a title against Margarito and was being heralded by the US boxing journalists as the next Tommy Hearns

    I simply mentioned Kell Brook @54 , due to lack of opportunity , maybe i should of elaborated on , thoughts ................... ???

    I'm pretty sure I never had any threads suggest anything like that before, dude. :lol:

    Anyway, the Brook hype is a little out of control. I'm quite annoyed at the double standards of loads of posters on here.

    What are some of the double standard things I have said? :think

    Well actually, you just asked for thoughts on who he could beat out of the top 154 pounders and like I said, he hasn't beat any top 147 pounders let alone any top 154's.

    That said, the 154 'Top fighters' aren't great.

    Everytime hatton hit brook with a left hook, he connected. This will be brook's downfall and it will be exploited by better opposition.

    To be fair, anyone time Boxer A hits Boxer B with a left hook they connect.

    i still see him as someone waiting to get chinned. Hes decent on the offense but i still doubt he can make people miss enought at world level
