    I think Brooks reaction to adversity was the best thing about him last night, I thought he was a goner to be honest but he ****** it up and give Jones back a bit, I dont want to bring Khan in but if Khan was in there with Jones last night then it might be a long night too.

      Yea but I've seen other fights of his where he does the same thing. Even against Hatton, where granted Hatton was being a spoiler to survive, Brook was just not getting off late.

            That's how I feel. Brook manned up under the pressure. Khan backpedals 7 looks ready to pee under jr welterweight pressure. I can only imagine the pressure from last night.

              are there 4 worlds?

                you'd have the very same dream if the current sanctioning body phenomenon weren't in place, brother. the very same.

                it would be more difficult to achieve.


                i'm sure you are aware of this, but there was a lineal title established essentially via the media that existed free of sanctioning fees before the creation of paid sanctioning bodies.

                  A big fat lie

                  Yes it is an over reaction. Jones put on a good performance yet he has still been stopped by Alfonso Gomez and beaten by Freddy Hernandez and Soto Karass, yet he 'runs Khan out of the ring'. If anything it just shows how Brook just isn't ready for Khan yet.
                  TS is a prick if you don't agree with his opinion he get's butthurt like a little *****.

                    I'm not saying I disagree. I do feel that titles are used out of context like I said.

                      this game is subjective, and he's certainly not a prick.
