    No, people have been saying Brook is a big WW for years.

      When do people realize that in order to fight for the IBF, there's a maximum re-hydration clause? for welterweights I believe it's 157 for next day.
      you can find a picture.157 this is for the next MORNING

              The 10lb rule came in after Shane left 135.

                Also Kovalev because of IBF rules he weighs this morning 181,6
                But at the evening he'll be heavier.For example his fightnight weights
                Kovalev: Official: 174.25 - Unofficial: 189
                Pascal: Official: 175 - Unofficial: 185
                Kovalev: 188
                Hopkins: 182

                And GGG vs Wade was 171.

                  I think its about the same to be honest, I have both GGG and Brook beating Canelo and Brook. I think the problem some have with this fight (apart from the weight difference) is the hypocrisy part of it from both team GGG and Brook. Both chat sh;t when the Canelo-Khan fight was announced.

                    This sht aint even comparable. Brook is a solid WW, Khan is a glass-chinned Lightweight. Brook would beat Canelo if they fought right now.

                      No it's not the same thing when Canelo went and chased the khan fight when he could have fought pretty much anyone he wanted... GGG was to fight Eubanks but they apparently didn't want the fight so they signed to fight someone who actually wanted the fight.....see the difference now?

                      Khan = Canelo's first choice..
                      Brooks = probably GGG teams 3rd -4th option
