    6 to 8 round... Mismatch because Golovkin would knock him silly? Wouldn't that happen to basically anyone at 154 and 160? And even 168?

    No one from the Golovkin side chased this fight, but no one was available, and they already had a big fight booked in the UK...

    Hopefully being a big money/exposure success, they'll bait Saunders for the unification...

      Depends on Brook. If he clams up like Stevens did, he could last 8 rounds. More likely round 5 or 6.

        4-6 maximum. depends on what kind of fight he's planning to fight. golovkin's goign to do exatly what he should try and do, which is use his jab to set up his power and shrink the ring. brook may try and box exclusively. or he may see if he can get respect. if he's on the back foot i think he'll last longer. by virtue of his size he'll be quicker than the average golovkin opponent, maybe even the fastest golovkin opponent. he'll stillbe giving up two weight classes to the biggest puncher in boxing, with arguably the best chin in boxing, and in light of that realiyt the outcome of the fight is merely a quetsion of when golovkin lands, and if his first big shots put brook out or not. i tend to think that they do.


        4 rounds is my pick. you can run, but you can't hide.

            The best and most accurate answer is as long as Golovkin let's Kell last. If he really wanted he could get him out in 1 round let's be honest about that.

              Voted 4 rounds, went to type my response/reasoning, saw yours and figured why should I repeat the same thing?

              Golovkin is always a quick starter. It should be a 3rd round knockdown and 4th, max 5th round stoppage.

                Rounds 6-8. I don't see him going the distance, GGG has a difficult style for him even without the size and strength difference

                  He's a big boy huh, he looks promising. I'm convinced Hearn is cashing Brook out to build Duck up for an inevitable fight so that Smith can assume his ppv mantle.
