Comments Thread For: Vargas: Brook Wanted Payday, Nobody Expects Him To Beat GGG

[MagicG]

Correction it is a high reward- high risk situation.
Nobody knows if he will make 147 and be fit again.

Brook is stubboirn and don't like losing. He thinks he can beat GGG even if nobody does. Yes he will get paid well, so what?
So he will be underdog so all the more credit

Brook just wants a payday hence the khan obsession.

Hearn knows Brook can only make money off khan and won't invest in him anything like aj, hence the khan obsession.

After all the comments of accusing khan for taking the Canelo fight he literally copies him.

Everything they do is in Khan's shadow, and that will include gktfo.

Brook is unbeaten.
Brook is world champion
Brook is not chinny.
Brook is moving up two full divisions.

There are NO comparisons ...say anything about Khan and they come at you like you are racist ...i'm.not I just can't stomach Khan.....the above are facts!

[hugh grant]

I don't understand Vargas. Nobody expects brook to beat him, so its credit to brook about taking on opponent he is underdog against.
Why don't Floyd fight GGG at 160, be underdog for a change? Why don't bjs, nelo and Jacobs be underdog and be paid handsomely?

Baffling statment.

Can get paid vs anyone? How much did he get paid for his last 3 fights?

Brook is not earning anywhere near 4 million against anyone else except Khan.

The dude is young. People who have never been in the ring before dont understand that this fight could end his career for all intents and purposes. He could definitely make 4 million in 2 easy fights. This kid can easily make 200 million over the next 15 years. Golovkin could ruin him with one punch. Physically you lose a lot in the wrong fight. Your brain can shut down quicker for protection. You lose confidence and your future opponents gain confidence. The list goes on and on but believe me Brook's career is worth 50 times what he's making in this fight but he's risking it anyway. Its because he wants glory. But Boxing "fans" who know nothing about being an athlete, let alone a Boxer, never appreciate guys like this until they're gone.

He's 30 and no he couldn't.

He's 30 and no he couldn't.

You speak when I tell you to speak you say what I tell you to say and you say it when I tell you to say it.

[Hougigo]

Same if you fight Pac...nobody or less than Brook

[thack]

You speak when I tell you to speak you say what I tell you to say and you say it when I tell you to say it.

Sounds like it's time to throw the towel in there Lou!

Idiotic statement. Brook is an undefeated World Champion in a glamour division. He could make money fighting anyone. He's doing this for glory and immortality, in which all roads lead through Gennady "Pound For Pound" Golovkin.

Brook only notable win is against Porter, had he beaten previously Thurman,Spence,Garcia he could be called the best welterweight but even at WW he's unproven, and he's against the best MW.

PD When GGG beats and dominates tough challenges, he'll be P4P, till that day he just the best MW, and let's be honest here, MW is by far one of the weakest divisions in boxing right now, just being honest.
