Yea I understand all that my friend. I'm just saying Brook is having meaningless fight after meaningless fight since he won his belt 20 months ago over Porter. That was a great win, but he's followed that up with garbage. Granted two of those fights were bs IBF mandatory's, but even in his voluntary he picked a bs opponent & now he's looking like he's gonna fight another bs opponent (my guess is Bradley Skeete). Fair play to him if he wants to be the UK Adonis Stevenson, but as a fan of boxing I'd like to see him in an interesting fight. He's a talented guy, I don't hate his chances vs anyone, but he's showing no desire to fight anyone respectable. Hell even Peterson would be a step up for him. Even Ruslan would be more interesting then Skeete.Comment

We all know the past couple years, well documented and commented on endless times. To me there's no rush anyway, and besides I think he's done well considering he was knifed in the leg, slicing a muscle I seem to remember. Like I said, I'm just waiting patiently to see if he does in fact fight the Ponomarev/Spence winner. Then I'll pass judgement. If you wanna faster fight schedule, fine. No worries either way.
Spence is probably in the top 3 fights that could be made right now if Brook wanted to take them. I'd for sure put Bradley on that list too. I just wanna see Brook fight someone interesting again. Its been awhile.Comment

I'm not trying to judge him so much as wanting to see him fight some better opponents. Like I said he's been screwed over or lucky (depending on how you wanna look at it) with the IBF mandatory's that were whatever fights, but in his voluntary he picked another whatever fight & all signs point to another whatever fight vs Skeete or another fighter on that largely subpar IBF rankings list next which means he will not have fought an compelling fight in 2 years which is disappointing as a fan of boxing.

I'd definitely bet some points Brook takes on another bs-ish opponent or two before the year is out. We'll see doe. Maybe he does & then in 2018 he'll fight another meaningful opponent lol.Comment

This is not true and you know why? Because by his 20th fight, Lacy had achieved more in the irng and KOd a better caliber of fighter. Spence has a ways to go before his hype is as qualified as that surrounding Lacy.Comment
