    Brook has no power man. If you can't keep a puncher off, you're getting knocked out.

      I think Brook's need to outdo Khan has led him to make a mistake. I'll be rooting for him though.

            Can't defend Wards last opponent, but g string ball gaggers should never, ever bytche about anyone fighting bums and/or stiffs. Pot, Kettle, Black, etc.

              This fight is not a solid matchup, nor is anyone outside of the UK talking about it. At least be honest.

                I think you have done a masterful job at convincing yourself but nobody's buy it bro. Just enjoy the fight and hey u might be right. We will see.

                I was going to boycott the fight but the boxing fan in me won't allow it.

                **** fight tho to be honest

                    thought the Ward/Kovalev fight was scheduled for November? Did it get moved up?

                      what may very well be a career high payday against a welterweight?

                      they f#cking love this fight



                      he's made a mistake in that he's taken an easier road than i care to see a pound for pounder take. canelo ducks. eubanks jr ducks. i get it.

                      then they fight kell brook. that i don't get, and i'll never excuse.
