Khan would stop Brook

[P4P_No1]

Rant ha more like an essay.

Just this little point though, we've seen how Khan has held up under that sort of pressure from a guy who's pressure fighting is x10 of that of Jones, Maidana. And even though the Argentine machine nearly took his head of in that 10th, fact of the matter is Khan survived.

The question is, how would Brook have held up under that sort of pressure(not talking about Maidana specifically just his style)?

Agree with your other part though that i think Brook was being overrated before this fight and now is probably gonna get underrated haha, funny way this forum works.

haha I know, was a bit of a rant really lol.

But yeh in regards to that "how will Khan hold up against this" I kinda meant someone who is as physically imposing as Jones. While Maidana is in a similar mould, style wise I don't think he's as imposing as Jones physically.

And considering Khan was getting walked down at 140, I think Jones (assuming he could get through the first 4/5 rounds with Khan) would do a similar thing to what Maidana did and what he did to Brook tonight.

I just think it's silly the way people react on here. But that's boxingscene for ya.

It's too early to say, Khan is competing at a higher level right now. Brook is still fighting a level below championship level. If he couldn't take Jones pressure, what would he do with someone like Lamont, who may not quite be as strong as Jones but has far more tools.

Pretty interesting...Brook did not react well to being hit, and a lot of those shots were arm punches, so Jones is either extremely heavy handed, or Brook is not being pushed hard enough in sparring. Also his stamina was not at the level of a championship level fighter, this has been mentioned by others. Lots of question marks over Brook for me, he looked like he nearly busted a lung by the end of that fight, Jones was really determined and strong, but apart from that he was basic and very slow, that fight should nothave been that difficult.

Based on tonight, you're probably right.

I just couldnt believe how suddenly he gassed. I was incredible, one minute he was fine, then BAM! all of a sudden he was tired. It was strange.

That's from the body punches he received. Nothing strange here imo

I agree with you but didn't Brook break his nose? Seemed like a bit of turning point in the fight. Coupled with the pressure it certainly didn't help him. It reminded a bit of Margarito/Cotto in the way the punches Jones landed didn't look much but they were making a mess of Brook.

So now because Jones gave Brook tough fight==== automaticaly means Khan would KO Brook....that's a silly logic right here. Two totaly different styles

I'll have to see the fight first but I'd venture to guess that Brook took Jones lightly. Khan isn't as good as I once thought he was. He can't handle pressure at all and he has more excuses than a politician when things don't go his way.

I will leave my assessment until I see this fight and Khan's next fight against Garcia....a fight in which I think Khan will overlook his opponent too.

Brook has a good chin and holds on in there...

If Khan was to KO him it would be a late round TKO from overwhelming punch output....

8th round earliest.

Yup as other have said, I was thinking the exact same thing when I watched this fight.

two totally different levels
Brook has beaten no one!

Brook takes Khan out inside of 6 rounds for me, the boy showed plenty of heart tonight against a very good and teak tough opponent.
