Guys hating on GGG Brook also hating on Hagler facing Duran and co?

[sicko]

FAIL! Duran did not jump from 147 direct to 160 to fight Hagler

Duran was the WBA world Champion at 154 going into the Hagler fight. Duran absolutely destroyed a young undefeated fighter by the name of Davey Moore (RIP) to become World Champion at 154:



So NO it is NOT The Same but nice try though

I don't see it thst way at all

[Gary Coleman]

This is a bull**** fight.

That is all.

Sugar Ray Leonard just won his first Title (at 147) and then moved up to fight the most dangerous MW - Marvin Hagler.

Pretty similar to what Kell Brook is doing.

Leonard vs Hagler was a sensational fight, Leonard actually managed to defeat Hagler by SD.

That fight with Brook has the new IBF 10lb rehydration limit, so nobody will weigh more than 170 when they enter the ring. Brook is a big durable guy, will give GGG a good fight. He outclassed Porter, Porter started at 165 and is very strong.

I suggest you focus your hatred on the guys who are ducking GGG. GGG needs to fight 3 times this year and he had no other option, glad Brook stepped up.

Sugar Ray also won title at 154 against a very good fighter named Ayub Kalule before he fought Hagler. He didn't "just" win his first title at 147.

You don't know what you're talking about so stop trying to rewrite history.


Comparing Brook to either Leonard or Duran is just asinine.

yep, history has fighters stepping up to fight in megafights, brook isnt stepping up specifically for golovkin, he has said himself that he kills himself to make 147, he cant continue to do it. So in my eyes he is only really stepping up one weight class because he would be at 154 anyway. GGG haters are the most miserable bunch, tune in on september 10th, sit back and enjoy an amazing night of boxing between two great champions leaving it all on the line.

Pretty obvious that Brook is huge for his weight, both him and GGG walk around at the same weight. One guy kills himself and drains himself more, that's the difference. I see Brook being in top shape with the additional weight, he will be extremely strong and healthy. There is a reason bookmakers give Brook a better chance than all the Middleweights.

Hating the idea of this fight doesn't mean I'm hating on GGG.

yeah size wont be much of a factor at all, people comparing it to khan v canelo are clueless, it wasnt size that meant canelo sparked him, it was because khan had a glassjaw. swift and prescott ko'd khan and size wasnt a factor then. These two are similarly matched, got pauliewalnuts spouting his ****e about the size difference, ive got two eyes and can see there isnt a big difference.

[Madison Boxing]

Think a lot of you need to grow up, you are all trying to make out that this is some circus freak show like brook is going up to fight klitschko lol, how much size difference is there really?! **** all.

First of all:

I am not a big fan of that fight, i am just trying to be logical.

Would have preferred GGG to fight Canelo, Saunders, Jacobs or Eubank.

I hope they grow some balls in due time!



I know the Anti GGG Agenda is in full force, but what about some food for thoughts about the situation.

GGG needed an opponent, quick, very quick. Eubank pulled out for a fight in 8 weeks.

Looking at 160
GGG called out everyone. Every top middleweight ducked him.

Looking at 168
Zurdo has an injury, out for 5 months.
DeGale and Jack have a unification at the end of the year.

Looking at 154
Andrade wants to unify first and face GGG for big $$$ in 2-3 years.
Lara talks big on twitter and in interviews, never once his team contacted K2, also has no fans, also gets no $$ from HBO. Also his own promoter says fight cannot happen because of "TV problems":

DiBella would like to see @GGGBoxing fight a true welterweight or a heavier opponent. When I asked about Jacobs or Lara, told "TV problems."

Charlo bros want nothing to do with GGG.

Looking at 147
Brook, ranked #1 at 147, undeafeated, huge at the weight, steps up and takes the deal Eubank declined, HBO already had the UK deal with K2 and Matchroom ready and needed a willing opponent for a fight in 8 weeks.

Ding Ding Ding we have a winner. Probs to Kell Brook for knocking out all the cowards with one shot and giving the GGG Antis a meltdown.

Marvin Hagler, one of the ATG MWs, his biggest fights were against the best guys from lower weights (Duran, Hearns, and Sugar Ray Leonard, who was a huge welterweight like Brook who actually defeated Marvin Hagler)

Great and legit post, fact... But Duran was an ATG, Leonard was an ATG! Let's see Golovkin fight Pacquiao then, he's an ATG!

Duran was fat and older, started at 118, when he fought Hagler, took him the distance and was ahead after the 13th round...

Leonard was unranked and not even rated anymore, since he was inactive and coming from a long layoff for a career threatening eye injury, when he fought Hagler, and he edged him out on points...

Hearns was a good win, no doubt, but even with his huge frame, Hearns was a very fragile and weak chinned boxer outside of 147 and 154...

And this is only Hagler, who like Hopkins, had a piss weak 160 division so he had to get signature wins on ex-welterweights...

Hopkins is even worse in my opinion, Hagler like Golovkin was a small MW, but Bhop was a natural LHW who started to cut weight after he got beat at that weight... Once again his signature wins were WWs, and although Trinidad was legit and proved himself a little over 147, DLH took a dive and was coming off of a beatdown from Felix Sturm, one of the worst robberies i can remember...

No one is saying that Brook vs GGG is an incredible fight, it wasn't in the plans, but ****ting all over it, and on Golovkin, is extremely ******ed, we have two undefeated p4p boxers going at it, arguably the best in their respective divisions, WWs vs MWs always happened in boxing history... Accept it for what it is and let's hope that it generates enough money and exposure, so that Golovkin can get better and bigger fights...
