Comments Thread For: Hearn: Mayweather Won't Go Near Brook - Too Risky!

[BWC]

Right! Based on what? A belt? His string of opponents tells a different story.

Well dang I mean who else is there in the division. After May/Pac retire the division is Brook/Khan/Thurman/Bradley. Who else is beating that group?

Brook doesn't actually do anything that troubles Floyd. Like, literally, NOTHING.

[Wicky]

absolute rubbish

Brook with his crap workrate, lack of experience at a high level, telegraphed punches, he's like a poor mans version of Canelo

Thurmann with his unconventional style stands a far better chance

and like it or not, a on form Khan presents the toughest challenge

You're entitled to your incorrect opinion. Brook hasn't got a crap workrate though, he just doesn't waste shots. His timing is very good so he doesn't have to do the weak ass flurry that Khan thinks makes him great. We'll probably never know how Khan would fair against him because Khan is very frightened by Brook. Keep lapping up the hype though son.

Floyd jr just earned hundreds millions dollars,
let him take a long vacation enjoy it then,
allow him to decide whom he fights next year!
maybe, that's the time Pacman has recovered from shoulder injury,
then think of a possible rematch Outside USA!

Muhammad Ali fought outside USA.
He fought even in his opponent' country (He fought Henry Cooper in Britain and won by TKO)

Can't Floyd jr do the same?

[Visceral]

I wish this was what we were getting in September, but I'm certain our luck isn't that good. It will probably be Khan.

[IronDanHamza]

Stylistically, Brook is an easy fight For Mayweather.

It's Khan that's high risk low reward, IMO.

[heihaci]

what is this guy smoking?

I guess everyone is scared of Brook other than Jo Jo Dan and Frankie Gavin

[DoktorSleepless]

Read this as "Mayweather won't go near book, too risky!"

[brettWall]

Hearn says the same thing about Khan. Meanwhile, they want bum bums and no nos.

That would never work. Can't maximize ppv money fighting overseas.
