Comments Thread For: 30 Day Weights: Gennady Golovkin 165, Kell Brook 176!

What am I apologizing for? Because GGG's 30-day weight was 1lb heavier than in his last fight? Or, because Brook is putting on bloat?

I like to believe you're smart enough to know that quality muscle doesn't stack on in 4 weeks. Please tell me you're not being that gullible.

Agreed, Brook is either taking too much time losing the weight, or he's got one hell of a cycle going.

I'm surprise that number is that big for Mora tbh. No one wants to see this fight. How is he getting paid that much money for Mora rematch.

I honestly think it was fair to give him the rematch tbh. Mora was doing well and he got injured. Guy worked hard for that fight I'm sure. It's obviously not ideal as far as other fights, but I personally have questions about Jacobs at this point, and beating mora will help others with those doubts as well.

On the flip side, Quillen was caught cold and I'd like see that rematch instead, but Quillen has already lost in my eyes at least twice.

Brook recognised he was never going to get $4M fighting anyone else, not at 147 or 154 so he jumped at it

I disagree. He would have had that shot if he fought and beat Vargas and then fought the winner between Thurman/Garcia in late 2017. That would generate at least 4 mil for each fighter while unifying all of the welterweight belts.

All you idiots saying Brook has put on 20lb of muscle in a month, go on any body building site and post that and watch them all laugh at you. You could be on the most extreme roid cycle and it would still be impossible to put 20lbs of muscle on.

What was brook weighing a month ago?

Are you trying to say he put on 20lb of muscle to fight Vargas at 147? That's even more ******ed.

How? Thurman and Porter just split 2.4m. nobody is making 4m in the US unless it's ppv.

Brook is carrying a lot more fat, Lil Gina's need to stop trying to bullshit.

Fat = Useless weight that harms your performance (unless you're leaning on someone)

My man -- Bird in the hand etc etc - take it while it is there - September 2016 as opposed to late 2017.

Who knows when another machete swinging maniac could enter Brook's existence.

100% agree, he can lose 10 pounds in 30 days for 155 against Canelo

I'm sure he can as well. But why would he compromise himself. He's not a spring chicken. He's close to mid 30s, unlike canelo who's in his mid 20s. Canelo can get away with it ggg may not. Sure ggg could don't against cotto or mayweather but those guys can't hurt him. Canelo stands a better chance of hurting ggg. Lest not forget boxers have actually died I. The ring from detrimental weight lost.

[Robbie Barrett]

Brook not carrying fat though. All muscle.
