    Porter, Manny, Bradley, Thurman have taken more risks and are more proven imo at the moment...they've beat more top 20 ww.....the division is stacked
    I agree with this.

    Brook may turn out being the best but until he undergoes the same baptisms by fire that others have he is outside looking in when it comes to the very top.

    A controversial win over Porter is just not enough of a calling card right now.

      Asking why bringing up words from others, but you use words from others not involved to defend Golovkin ducking Lara.
      You're a sorry joke if you're claiming to be more of an authority on Golovkin/Lara than DiBella. But it's sounding like your digging in with that defense b/c you have nothing else. Typical troll.

      I have no idea why you brought up what somebody else claims about Hearn deciding Golovkin's opponents. That was ******ed. Hearn offered Eubank, he dropped out and then he offered Brook. K2 went with the money fight, their decision end of story. DeGale was still looking at fighting Jack in November, so how's Eddie going to offer DeGale?

        He made a money move vs GGG...he can always go back to 147, hopefully not damaged goods and establish himself at 147

          Oh, and you have more authority than Lara himself and his actual actual manager?

            Based on what do you say that? I relayed what Lou DiBella stated. Watson is on video as well saying there's tv issues for that fight.

              How does fighting in the UK make up for a weight difference? The best @ 147 and the best @ 160, should be fighting @ 154. What has Brook done to say he's the best @ 147? Beat Porter? I believe Pacquiao has a "slightly" better resume than Brook @ 147!

                I dunno if I'd say Brook is the best at 147 as he hasn't had the opportunity to prove it. I'd bet on him to beat Thurman anyway.

                  So now home crowd advantage is equivalent to jumping up two divisions. That British crowd must really be something if it's going to help Brook take middleweight punches!

                    But Brook isn't the best at 147.

It's on James to call their bluff and make it happen with rumors his November fight vs Jack falling apart. The fans should be clamoring for a DeGale/Golovkin fight now, putting pressure on Hearns & Loeffler.
                      Golovkin is not man enough to move up, you'll excuse it.
