    Why did Brook take the fight?

    I know he had talked about it before but no one took that seriously. But really what is the reasoning that he took it? Can't be that big a payday. Even if he looks good for a while he's likely to get steamrolled. There's probably an angle here, but I don't see it.

      I think Brook is avoiding Keith Thurman, but he won't run away from Errol Spence, who is likely to succeed him as IBF welterweight champ.

          He has balls that's for sure.

          I see him getting knocked out pretty badly in this fight. Props to him if he win but I'm not betting on it. Golovkin is the goods.

                    Do you want to do one job right now for a big payday, or 3 jobs over a year and a half for equal pay?
