    Brook is so so chinny and is devoid of defense. The fight doesn't go past four and I'm not someone that rates Thurman that highly.

      He's chinny?

      What do you base that on? To my recollection, he hasn't been down in his career.

        Doesn't mind a tear-up and gasses quickly.
        Would you still feel the same way about Brook if he was German, Mexican etc?

          He's been shaken several times against very average opposition. Senchenko even had him on queer street. I didn't buy much into Brooks destruction of Saldivia.

          When Brooks steps up (I don't think he ever will) I think he will be badly stopped. Sig it.

            Did I over-praise him in your opinion?

            Brook has the talents to be a worldclass fighter. But he's just too much of a lad.

            And he's not chinny at all.

                  I think he looks very nice and tidy when he is fighting domestic/European level fighters and I can see why some people may think he can go all the way to the top. However I think he will crumble like a cookie if he fights a top 10'er. Only time will tell though.

                    Thurman

                    too much educated body work for the stamina fading Brook

                    Thurman has some boxing ability to fall back onto in case the fight is fought at longer ranges

                      Well we haven't seen him against world class opposition yet. As we haven't seen Thurman against world class opposition. So anything up until that point is pure speculation.

                      I have just watched it, he took a shot, stepped back for 10 seconds then dropped him. Is that 'queerstreet'?
