First, Brook is better than Canelo, just compare their performances against Mathew Hatton, Brook schooled Hatton and knocked him down which not even Canelo could do. Brook > Canelo/Cotto.
Brook hits EXTREMELY hard, of his last 8 fights only Big Porter (who as an amateur had 300 fights at Middleweight and won world championship gold) lasted the distance with Brook, and Brook schooled Porter MUCH better than Thurman did. (Had Brook clearly winning 9-3). So Brook >> Thurman as well.
If Martin "Average Joe" Murray (who lost to old Sergio with broken hand) could last 11 rounds with Golovkin, there is no way Brook gets stopped. Brook is SO much better than the likes of Murray, Geale, and Macklin that it's not even funny or remotely comparable.
Also, unlike Khan, Brook is undefeated and has KO power himself. Brook will be the first ELITE fighter that Golovkin has ever faced, and hits almost as hard.
Like it or not, this is a HUGE step-up for Golovkin. It will be a close fight, but I see Brook winning a close UD or SD using speed and timing.
When was the last time Brook clinched anyone outside of the Porter fight? Brook schools fighters and KOs them when he wants to. And Brook had to clinch Porter because Porter kept charging in with his football tackles and rabbit punches.
Brook is a clean, quick, outside fighter with devastating power.
When has brook fought a good fighter other than porter tho

I follow your logic.. except for when you say Brook will get a UD. You're under impression that without the KO, Golovkin would have dropped the decision.
Golovkin does not lose rounds against anyone. Even if Brook goes the distance and never gets dropped, he's gonna lose 119-109 on the cards.This is true. GGG's 22 straight KOs over shadows the fact that he loses fewer rounds per fight than anyone including Mayweather. He usually loses no rounds and 2 rounds is the most he has ever lost in any fight.
You have it all figured out with the breakdown and all. There is one small problem. You are wrong. If you are sure Brook will win then bet some money on him. The pro odds makers who pick winners for a living have GGG about a 7 to 1 favorite. There is a good return on the money you bet on Brook if he wins.Can you imagine Porter holding GGG to a split decision? I sure can't. Porter was badly hurt by one good left hook from Broner. A good left hook from GGG would knock Porter out. I expect GGG to knock Brook out and I will be betting on that. I won't make much money for the amount I'll bet but I think a GGG KO win is damn near a sure thing. It doesn't matter how Brook and Canelo compare against Hatton many years ago. What matters is how they compare with each other today. Canelo is much better than Brook. Brook would lose to Cotto. Canelo would KO Brook just like GGG is going to do in a couple of months.I like Brook and I think he is an excellent welterweight and might make a good 154 pounder. He is just in way over his head against the world's best middleweight.

Problem is, Brook also barely loses rounds against anyone (except the 1st Carson Jones fight where Brook didn't train). He's totally dominated everyone he's fought and the Porter fight was a clinical shutout in my book.
Brook is a master boxer on the outside, way better than anyone Golovkin has fought, I feel he is going to hit Golovkin with 1-2 combos as Golovkin comes in, and then he is going to turn Golovkin when they get to the ropes. Brook has the speed advantage here.
This is going to be a battle of two unbeaten giants, I see Golovkin starting out strong and coming forward, but he is going to be shocked once he realizes that he can't just walk through Brook who hits like a Juggernaut with his 1-2s.
A lot of close rounds but ultimately I see Brook pulling off a decision win.
I don't think you realise how big of a difference there is between a hard hitter at MW and those of the divisions below. Canelo knows this, which is exactly why he went back to 154.
Golovkin will walk through Brook. Let's just hope he doesn't ruin him.
You don't realize how slick defensively Brook is, when was the last time we saw Brook get hit clean to his head or body? The guy's defense and sense of distance is superb, and he moves much better than Canelo.
Brook just needs to keep jabbing and throwing 1-2s on the outside, once Golovkin backs him to the ropes, Brook needs to turn Golovkin. If Golovkin comes in overconfident Brook will seriously hurt him with counters.
Brook is going to outbox him. He just needs to watch for Golovkin's body shots.
Brooks way of winning is clinching non stop. GGG is too big for Brook to clinch. GGG by KO mid rounds

Special-K just needs to keep turning G-String, hit him with a right hook and go right, hit him with a left hook and turn left, etc.
G-string fights like a stiff robot, Special one would outbox and out jab him from distance but he needs to hold G-string on the inside since G-string does have some big power.

Golovkin is wide-open to get hit, as he comes in he is going to be target practice for Brook on the outside just like Porter was.
Only question is can Brook take Golovkin's left hook to the liver? Brook seems like a strong dude though.
Brook is going to make you look like an idiot in September. Hop off the hype train while you can kid, it's headed for a cliff.
Aww what's wrong, already losing confidence? What happened to "oh mah gawd Brook is gonna get killed in 3 rounds" ?? ;)
Brook starting to have you fools shook. :D
Lmao... When did I say Brook would be blown out in 3???
At best, Brook will be the guy to last the distance and break golovkin's ko streak
If Brook is not stopped as you say , then Brook is right in the fight .
Brook is a live dog .
