    Thurman, Garcia, Bradley, Khan...these guys have shown no desire to fight Brook.

    He wants big fights, he took the only one he could get.

      GGG KO 1-6

      I'm putting my savings on it.

      Khan has mindf*ked Brook into taking this crazy fight.

        Brook is taking a risk fighting Golovkin. Golovkin is bigger and he's been destroying middleweights like a machine. Forget the ramifications, it's a tough ****ing fight.

          Ducks and chickens are not crucified in this place. They are vigorously defended and sometimes honored. They'd rather crucify the one being ducked.

            He's taking a risk because of the danger involved in moving up 2 full weight classes and fighting the best guy there. Let's not pretend like Brook is moving up to 160 to fight some weak title holder

              Fully agree.

                He should be trying to get a fight with Keith Thurman, or even Errol Spence.


                I myself don't understand why he would think of fighting Golovkin.

                  love these big underdog fights...brook has got the ability to outbox GGG I think. But if he gets hit clean...

                    not when he beat Pac and arguably Tim Bradley at that same weight....I didn't see Marquez go back to 135 after Floyd, did you?

                      No he can't outbox G because G is an outside fighter with a long jab and long punches, he'd have to fight G on the inside to have a chance; But Brook is not an inside fighter which means he is going to stand on the outside, get caught, and get KO'd like Khan!
