Brook Not Taking a Risk Fighting Golovkin

[Code Red]

I think the look at the size my balls, I'm so brave, taking a risk is bull****! Kell Brook isn't risking anything in this fight, if he loses to Golovkin the world says so what and moves on. The smaller man is suppose to lose, give him a pat on the back and say you're so brave.

It would be a bigger risk for Brook to fight Thurman, Garcia, Bradley, Spence, Khan, or a rematch with Porter. Those are the fights that he should be taking, fights where he would have expectations and something to prove. It is way more pressure to fight a fellow welter, where the competition is real, fighters are hungry, and a loss could end your title reign and set you back! Losing to Golovkin does nothing but put him in the fan empathy section with Amir Khan.

I hope the real fans who can see through this BS continue to agitate against this fight. GGG is the one who needs to move up not Kell Brook! Even worse when considering the competitive matches Haymon and PBC have given us lately while the so called big names and promoters give us mismatches

There's not risk in terms of his losing credibility. That's true.

But he's taking a serious health risk which is not cool imo.

Which makes it a ****** fight when nothing is on the line but his health!

Yes, it is completely true that Brook is taking zero risk in this fight. Brook was afraid to legitimately lose his 0 to a welterweight like Vargas or Spence, so he is cashing it out to Golovkin because there is no shame in losing to a fighter that is two weight classes above you. Brook deserves zero respect because he is taking zero risk.

Brook will make weight for 160 much better, he will move up much more gracefully than Amir Khan did just look at the body structures of both men Kell is clearly packing a lot of muscle, dunno what weight he sits at regularly but Its higher than Khans also in the next couple of months he surely will try to add a bit more mass to his frame which shouldn't be a problem.

I think after this fight he will likely go to 154lbs whilst a fight with Thurman and Garcia are big there is no reason either man couldn't go to 154 for him that and Canelo Alvarez is there.

I'm with you if you raised hell when JMM move 2 divisions up to face your hero Mayweather who had to pay a penalty for weighing in 2 lbs heavier.

He could become the P4P 1 fighter in the world by doing this.
Thurman and co likely wouldn't have the balls to travel to the UK.

Also, win or lose Kell Brook will be HIGHLY likely to have a fight with Amir Khan after this one is done end of the day these guys are fighting for money but it just so happens to be the big money fights are the ones we all want to see anyway so it isn't that big of a loss imo.

I see what your saying. Even if he gets knocked out in the first round he is still in the exact same position he was in before the fight. If he is going to drop that 0 might as well be in a fight no one is giving you a chance to win.
Had he fought Thurman or Garcia and lost he would go to the back of the line at the welterweight division. Now he can lose and keep his spot.

Brook is going for greatness. Stfu and enjoy it.
