    Can Brook pull off the upset against Mayweather?

    This looks like it is gonna be Floyd's last fight. Is this a good style match up for Floyd?

        I don't think so.

        Brook showed decent ability to cut the ring off against Gavin though, maybe he'd do better than I initially thought (if Floyd uses his feet). I'd favour Floyd to win in a competitive but clear fight, like 9-3.

          No, comfortable UD for Floyd, boring as well.

            Floyd could take advantage of Brook's non-existent inside game as well btw. The fight would probably be closer if Floyd used his feet.

                I think he would give this version of Mayweather a competitive fight. This fight would be a lot easier for prime Mayweather who could control the fight with his fast leaping left hook.

                Both guys are pretty inactive so in a chess match that favours Mayweather, many close rounds with Mayweather seperating himself by 2 or 3 punches.

                Brook's jab would be effective but i doubt he lands his 'chocolate brownie' right hand or any other punch that consistently.
