Kell Brook has yet again made a statement much like his various other counter parts to put himself in the running for a Mayweather Super fight. Unlike his other British contemporary, who struggled to make a definitive statement against the surprisingly game Chris Algeri.
Fact remains, his, Kell's, opposition wasn't top notch, BUT, it's what one does when you are not matched against elite competition. You make it a short night's work. Kell Brook, Keith Thurman, Manny Pacquiao, Miguel Cotto, Danny Garcia, Andre Berto, GGG, All are Viable opponents for various reasons and fans would come to watch Mayweather career come to a close in September.
It's not the opponent, per se , it's how you defeat them.
While it's obvious Khan has the better resume, I think Brook is the better fighter. That said, no way in hell Mayweather fights him. Why would he? He doesn't have an audience in the US. The belt means nothing. Regardless of who's better May/khan will get more PPV buys than May/Brook.
Difference is Khan is known and on Floyd's radar.
Brook isn't any where near the radar.
I agree but the only reason he is on his radar is because he is on the same continent.
By that same logic that's also like saying you have a good chance to hook up with Rihanna.
Fact is, some things should be Earned.
Klitchko vs Haye should not be the standard practice of boxing.
Earn a super fight off a good performance, If i'm not mistaken, HE'S NOT EVEN A CHAMPION!
It's laughable to assume this clown is more deserving of what he's done, which is nothing in his past 5 fights.
Keep moving goal posts.
Collazo was picked to spark him out on this forum and then he became Collapso.
Alexander went on a run of: Matthysse, Maidana and Bailey. All monster punchers and all wins.
Anyways, it's nice how you add those adjectives next to Khan's opponents, but anything to say about Mexicali City Council binman Alvaro Robles?
That impressive performance against Porter was almost a year ago. The ship has sailed. You can't fight Mayweather off of Tin Tin Can or Frankie Gavin. Even with beating Porter it doesn't make Brook much relevant in U.S. as much as Khan who is known on both sides.
Garcia-Salka did better ratings than Brook-Porter.
Brooks career=Beating Shawn Porter
I think he's just being pumped by Brits who don't like Khan and need a makeshift
replacement
There's no way that one win actually propelled him to this level of hype
British? Don't like Khan? Pretend Brook is somehow noteworthy
Yeah, it is comical. We all know why that is. I mean sure Algieri is not as good if you want Mayweather and he is ducking Brook, but even when he takes on good opponents people keep moving goal posts.
However, my opinion obviously doesn't count cuz......you guess?
You fight soup cans, you knock them out, no?
Chris Algeri, Love the guy, but your telling me, he's a "LOOK AT ME, you need to revert to plan B (SLAP)" fighter?
I said when it got signed that it's not a bad fight. Chris was t ready for PAC but khans no PAC. He won pretty clear. He mostly surprised khan with his agree soon. Chris isn't a can
Oh dear god the Irony. Chris "The killer" Algeri.
Knocked down six times fight prior, not wobbled once yesterday.
a few Coors light would have done a better job...
The uppercut wobbled him
and anyways Chris has only ever been dropped by 2 guys Ruslan and Pacman, both guys who hit extremely hard
before that he'd never tasted the canvas
Chris is a good fighter and he fought out of character yesterday, with everything on the line, went out on his shield, but it still wasnt enough
Agree solid effort here by Brook. He had a outmatched guy in the ring & he got him outta there as you're supposed to do.
The only two guys I wanna see fight Mayweather on Sept. 12 are Thurman or Brook. Those are the most deserving guys by my estimation. Everything else I've seen before or holds lil interest to me. And idk how reasonable it is to expect Thurman to fight on July 11 & Sept. 12 so Brook is the only option at this point for me.
And it just sorta seems right that Mayweather's last fight should be an old undefeated elite level boxer vs a young undefeated elite level boxer to potentially pass the torch.
bingo! I hope he fights Thurman Kell anyone who is deserving of that match.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking so far.
Until Kell fights and beats someone like a Marquez, Bradley or Rios then I will think differently BUT instead of those fights which I think he could have won he and that knob end Eddie Hearn decided to fight Frankie Gavin....
But he has a belt, more than I can say for your homeboy!
Who's beat the fists of Danny Garcia with his face. lol
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking so far.

Danny Garcia rematch, Make it so.
Brook isn't going to fight Mayweather coming off a win over Frankie Gavin.
Brook-Mayweather is not going to happen. Less than 1% chance.
No point talking about it.
True.
Same thing about struggling against a Chris Algeri.

Remember when brook was going life and death with carson jones? I hope Hearn keeps him away from thurman or Kell gets a hematoma. Big difference between Gavin and thurman

And somehow, deep inside, i'm supposed to care?
If your so impressed by him, why would you not bother changing it!??!
You know why???
Because, you clearly not either.:haha:
Well you're the one quoting a year old comment yet your ass don't care?
K den, keep telling yoursel that.
Why don't I change it? Because it requires effort I've not yet been willing to push on towards doing?
That was a P4P list that I made nearly a year ago.
