Comments Thread For: Sanchez: Brook Will Weigh More Than Golovkin on Fight Night

[lopez36]

blah,blah,blah,,,,at the end of the day he is still moving up two divisions, welterweight vs middleweight, no matter what he says, 147 vs 160

[Fetta]

Maybe of he keeps saying it he'll believe it.

Just an attempt to divert from once again fumbling the ball

[Holystroke3]

Sanchez doesn't even know how much Brook will be at weigh in. What if Brook decides to come in at 157, a weight at which he feels comfortable?

"He tricked us all"

yep, great match up between two unbeaten fighters of similar size. Got the number 1 middleweight taking on the number 1 fighter at welterweight who has naturally outgrown that division and is stepping up to a weight which he is more comfortable at. Cant wait for this fight, should be a cracker

Yep. Golovkin is a blown up lightweight and all his opponents and heavyweights on fight night.

I love Golovkin but his fans and Abel Sanchez are a joke and damaging his public image.

He has that same Freddie Roach tendency to run off at the mouth and make his fighter look bad in the process.

Spot on.

I've never liked Roach either, despite being a part-time Pact*rd.

I try to pay as little attention as possible to these guys, almost everything they say is utter garbage.

There is ZERO consensus that Brook is the #1 welterweight and to say he out grew welterweight is premature at best. He was just negotiating a fight at 147 when Hearn offered him this fight. If not for Eubank Sr. Brook would be fighting Vargas at welterweight.

While I agree with you on the lack of consensus if you google brook 147 struggles you have articles from back in 2015 with his manager and him both talking about struggles with weight. I think he has been struggling but holding on to the division because of the belt. Either way its one of those only the athlete himself really knows how much making weight takes out of him.
