Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: 51-49% That Alexander Beats Kell Brook

I would imagine Kell is quite enjoying coming in as the underdog. Pressure is off, seems like a lot of people have written him off due to one bad performance against Carson Jones. Kell has beat what's in front front of him throughout his career (95% of the time with ease) and I think he will do so again in January.

I like the way some people say Brook "gassed" in front of Jones, like Jones didn't bust him up. I suppose that was coolade dripping out of Brook's face after Jones landed a few. Most guys look great as long as the can fight at their tempo and "gas" when they get pushed. If that was gassing, he'll gas again when he gets taken out of his game again. I don't see how low rating Jones is going to help Brook.

Carson barely landed a punch until Brook ran out of steam.

It was a one-sided beating for the first half. Then Brook gassed, and only then did Carson get into the fight.

Carson was fighting like he always fights, wearing people down and it nearly worked enough to win him the fight.
