the fight with Porter that he won he held an average of 14 times per round.

Tell me you’ve watched & rewatched that fight, counting every hold and doing the maths to arrive at that average..

It was an annoying fight, he had enough skills not to do that but that holding was excessive. If you are a fan of his you won't mind all the holding, the same way I felt about Porter coming with his head in. The ref didn't do their jobs.

Acting like it was some brave decision to fight GGG is ludicrous - he did it for a payday. He and Hearn reasoned that his title wasnt on the line, so there was nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Turned out, they were wrong.

Some rewriting Brook's career here. He was constantly plagued by injuries and fighting lower tier fighters, the fight with Porter that he won he held an average of 14 times per round.

He was one of those fighters that could had been in the mix with Pac and Floyd at the time but his career stagnated. Lets not forget when he got stabbed on vacation asking for kisses.

Solid fighter but never won the big one and all he did was chase Amir.

Brook never lived the life, he was always out on the piss, taking drugs, blowing up in weight etc.

I'm surprised he was so successful tbh, very naturally talented boxer.

fighting is a brootal game.


glad Kell got out of the game with his mind in tact and millions. You were champ by defeated an undefeated American. you did good Kell.

in parts of the fight later on you could literally see Brooke thinking, "BRUV RELAX. TAKE IT EASY BRUV!" as Golovkin was just running him down.

I appreciate his vulnerability, these aren’t excuses. He’s explaining the thinking process leading up to the fights

did anyone listen to the interview/ podcast? Did Jordan ask him about the Tenerfie stabbing? Bout time that all came out

He clearly had the talent, I got tire of waiting for him to step it up. A waste of talent and his resume should had looked much better than it looks now.

Brook was an elite fighter ruined by a bonehead career move. Smh
