Only a fool would believe this shiat. All along we were told Vargas - Brook would only be signed once GGG - EUBANK had been signed. Both fights Both fights were PPV so why would one have to affect the other? Hearn and Brooks knew what they were doing from the beginning. There was never a Eubank fight, the guy is ģreen. The GGG was negotiated the very day Khan signed to fight Canelo and all this time Hearn has been bull****ting

He needs to get rid of Snr. Not just because of this.. but look at it objectively. Eubank didn't want to take BJS rematch because of senior. He cost him Golovkin and made him look ******. And if you look at every picture of Eubank in the ring.. his dad is standing RIGHT NEXT TO HIM. How is he supposed to escape from under his wing?
I'm not even the only one who has this thought.. there was an article about this in a UK paper. Here - Independant.co.uk

What does a Brook fight do for GGG? If only for one fight would it not serve K2 and HBO best in its quest to market GGG as a power punching beast to go up in weight to face a popular SMW with a suspect chin instead of pulling up a WW to MW. I get Brook is popular in the UK but even with his win over Porter he is still virtually unknown in the US. Does anybody really believe Brook has a chance to beat GGG? I mean neither fighter is making what Canelo or Khan made so what's the point of this fight. I just feel there has to be another fighter closer to 160 pounds that GGG could fight that can generate the same revenue as a fight with Brook.

Brooks isn't a great choice, but he's no Khan.

It's a rerun of the Canelo Kahn rematch. Unlike Kahn Brook has whiskers but that may not help him. The last thing he needs is a beating. I hope he gets paid a ton.
Brooks rehydrates to 165 at WW, likely will be heavier in GGG fight. It's conceivable that there will be less than five pounds between these two fighters, maybe both at 170.
Brook is undefeated and big for a WW. He's 5'9 and GGG is 5'10 1/2.
Canelo fought Amir Khan, whose literally been KO by a 140 pounder.
Brook fought at a CW of 151 and fought a guy who is now a LHW.

Every team GGG decision was forced to make up until today I understood. I knew fighters were ducking him. I know it was hard securing opponents. I also had a feeling that team Eubank were bluffing this whole time and knew they would out price themselves.
This Brook fight I cannot find an excuse for. There was no need for it and it stinks. This decision makes me roll my eyes.

Most GGG haters would crap on any fight he took they thought he'd win
This fight isn't my first or 5th choice.
But Brooks a a bigger threat than Eubanks ever was. Brooks is no small WW. Eubanks was beating domestic level fighters.

Ggg is gonna run 'em. But brook stepping up just like khan did to canelo. So thats more dangerous fight, if you the same logic khan did. Khan stepped up and fought the bigger stronger guy. Kell is doin the samething but he is fighting the guy(ggg) that canelo(the guy who killed khan in the ring) is not willing to fight.
And btw eubanks pulled a canelo talked way too much and could not deliver.
