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

Right. I mean you can't throw a dead cat without finding a guy who's jumping 2 weight classes to fight the divisions top guy.

Hatton should have been fighting LHW, AMIRITE?

Maidana definitely should have been fighting Klitschko.

Bunch of ducking going on, eh?

[Mr. Luthor]

Shocking.....Not. Kell Brook has no experience or knowledge of how to get his body to the Middleweight range at the optimal/peak time for a fight while this is routine for Golovkin.

It's not a coincidence that Golovkin was also 165 pounds at the 30 day weigh-in for his fight with David Lemiuex......and Lemiuex was 176 pounds.

I think Brook knows a bit about boxing already. But take your point. I'm in favor of limits on days out and also limits on rehydration. That should mean that you get fighters fighting at their most natural weights.

One has to wonder how much weight is factor in his wins though.

[The Hammer]

GGG's 30 day weight is 165. The fair and impartial boxrec computer says this makes him a SMW that is draining himself to get to MW just like you said Brook was draining himself to get to 147?

You're not very good in math, Big Dunn!

165-160 = 5 pounds
176-160 = 16 pounds
176-147 = 29 pounds

By your reasoning, if Golovkin is a super middleweight, then Brook is a cruiserweight.

[Eastcoast]

If Brook's weight is legit, then it just means he's not cutting yet (diet). He's clearly got the smaller frame than Golovkin, and having to move with added weight will only tire him faster.

It's too bad Cotto turned Brook down, that would've been a very interesting fight.

[IRONCHINHAGLER]

all ggg's 30 day weight proves is that he does not "blow-up" in between fights....does not mean he can continue cutting weight down to 154. Canelo was the middleweight title holder, called ggg into the ring after knocking out previously ko'd "glass-jaw" khan, and stated he would fight him that same night. then wimps out, gives up his title, and makes a fight against a obscure european champ...oh yea - and mexicans dont f*** around!!!!

[animelive]

He's a welter you anime loser.

His weight says otherwise. Learn your numbers.

[CaneloMaidana]

Wrong. I'm not a racist - check my post history. See - trolling again with your Rigo crap.

You should be congratulating Brook on challenging himself. Not crapping on Golovkin for one fight. Maybe I'm wrong on this but I suspect that if Crawford jumped up 2 weight classes to fight Canelo then 90% of NSB would be in awe of his bravery. I would too.

If at the end of Golovkin's career he stays at 160 and never moves up to challenge himself AND doesn't have any legacy defining fights at MW .... then feel free to crap on him.

People think Crawford has a chance to have a perfect fight vs Canelo, Brook has no chance.

Why won't Golovkin challenge himself? He's a coward.

Hatton and Maidana got FAT... Brook size is because of muscle. Too much hate for GGG. Today photo:
