Comments Thread For: Brook: You Need To See Me in a Real 50-50 Fight With a Big Name

Brook, 50 - 50 fight At last, the penny has dropped!

He's basically admitting he hasn't been in a 50/50 fight.

Like I called it before, Hearn like to name drop a lot to promote his fighters. Brook is not fighting anybody of note. He was 50/50 against Porter and came out with a split decision. He is a good fighter but his competition is weak at best. Jesus Karass Soto has faced better competition than Brook at WW

Brook gets so much hate about only fighting bums same people say Spence is a beast smh broners a beast same thing didnt fight no one good till he faced maidana n porter we all know what happened brook fights a name and beats him fare and square idk about some dudes Brook is a champ though. Different standards when you have the belt. Spence isn't champ yet.

Brook gets so much hate about only fighting bums and the people saying that r the same people saying Spence is a beast smh same ppl that say broners a beast broner looses to his first good opponent but broner still a beast brook fights porter beats him fare and square and hes still sucks? I truly think brook beats all the ww champs

Brook is in a really bad spot! I want to see him fight Thurman or Spence Jr. next!

This is what I like to call the Joe Calzaghe/Ricky Hatton/Lennox Lewis ("british") way. Get that belt then camp out in Britain and load up the resume with absolute bums/marginal fighters for as long as possible before you have to take that step up to "validate" yourself. It worked for Calzaghe and Lennox (although when they finally stepped up their opponents were way over the hill; Hopkins is arguable). Not so much for Hatton (mostly because he actually fought Floyd then Manny while they were still somewhat dangerous). And don't give me that Kostya Tszyu crap, dude was 36 when Hatton beat him and his best wins were against Zab and a 38 year old JCC Sr. Although I don't think Tyson Fury has any plans to follow this route. We'll see.

Yawnnnnn!!!!!
