    I'm interested because he could still matter. Until I've seen him get his ass whooped by someone near the top, I'll still pay attention.

      He'll still knock Khan out.

      Poor match-making is a problem though. I understand this one from the British angle, but better things are expected. He's a very talented fighter with a tremendous jab and very good skills, that's what interests people.

        Brook just got a gift stoppage VS a guy with 9 loses. He rematched a guy he beat already LOL. Not only was it someone he beat, he made it at 152! 10 rounds also... what a joke.

        Then he faces a guy that PAULIE stopped, yes Paulie stopped someone LOL.

        Brook is 27 and pulled out twice VS a World title shot. Alexander was going to whoop him.

        Brook has no stamina. Looks like he has trouble making 147 too.

          If you have close to 20 fights unbeaten and still no where near a title shot, I dont rate you. Brook, Vanes and even Fury have literally no names on their records, and their 20-30 and 0.

          Mainly due to the fans, if you lose one boxing match you are written off. Any other sport, a loss is not that much of a big deal. As a result people are too scared to enter 60-40 fights, so fight fighters way below them.

            I think Senchenko gives him trouble all night.

              I have to say that the OP sounds a bit like a bitter scorned ex wife.

              I'm also a Khan fan. Doesn't mean I have to start a load of childish threads about his rivals.

              I can't see Brook doing too much. He's a decent Euro level fighter but I don't think he can make Welter very well & he wouldn't be effective at Light Middle.

              I'd love to see him & Khan though. Not sure how much Khan has left. People are mocking Brook for struggling with Jones but Khan's last fight was a bigger struggle against a fighter with a much worse record (over the last few years).

              I wish them both the best.

                Childish threads? The guy has been in the welterwight division for 10 years now. 10 FRIGGING YEARS !! It's time to step up don't you think?
