    Barker's win over Geale was an excellent underrated win

    I don't think Brook can really afford to lose his title though.

    Not being with Haymon or Arum, you can imagine those guys who have every other welterweight, not risk them against Brook.

    He gets criticism for fighting mados by people with very little knowledge that boxing is a business.

    I know what u mean. Shame that in modern boxing a loss is looked at so bad when previous generation a loss was just a loss but the media and fans just wont accept a loss now and it scares promoters to much to match top fighters regularly
