That's what happens when you fight a mismatch, it's a no win situation.

Point being you can't please everyone. Just like people talked about floyd not fighting pac and he wins and everyone starts with the excuses. Point is he fought him. Point here is you can't go both ways. Stick to one.

NSB : "This is GGG's toughest fight", "Its a dangerous fight for GGG" "Brook is no joke"
GGG's camp: Mehhh, we'll take him out in 5 rounds!

[Gary Coleman]

The first time Brook gets caught flush, he'll be in survival mode if he's still conscious.

What do you expect from one of the worse mismatches in the history of boxing!!!

I disagree. Way worse out there.

No no no just no
Floyd fought PAC 5 years too late
In that case did up Muhammad Ali so I can fight him and win a close epic war then I can say it don't matter all that matters is that I beat him
I am the greatest!

In 09 Pac had a 50/50 split but turned it down because of random testing.

Dude turned down even money...

Brook WOn t win but if he does as well as the best guys GGG has fought brook would have done well.

I mean if a ww can do as well as Murray did or lemiuex did that has got to be a result

Lemieux did nothing but last, he really didn't land that much. Murray did better, still C and B- opposition respectively.

There's no controversy with Team Golovkin's predictions. The question is why would they say it? Usually, you talk up a fight, especially when it's a clear mismatch. Of course Brook, like any fighter, can surprise us with an upset. Ask Fonfara! But realistically Brook has no chance:

March 27, 2016:

There are occasions in boxing when a fighter's CV doesn't reveal the full story.

For instance, when Ismael Barroso arrived in London to fight Kevin Mitchell in December 2015, his career record contained two draws, no real names of note and a three-year period of inactivity.

But, at 32, he turned out to be a hidden gem in an age when social media makes it hard for anyone to go unnoticed. The Venezuelan beat Mitchell and will next face WBA lightweight champion Anthony Crolla.

When you looked at Bizier's record, it was hard to make a case for him getting the better of Brook.

The Canadian had lost twice before, both times to Jo Jo Dan. Yes, the same Jo Jo Dan whom Brook defeated with ease on March 28, 2015 (when the Canadian-based Romanian was his mandatory challenger).

The form guide suggested it wasn't going to be a difficult night for Brook, and so it proved. With Bizier, it was a case of the fighter's CV revealing exactly what was going to happen in the ring.

Bizier may have prepared well for the biggest fight of his life, but he wasn't ready for the power and accuracy of Brook's punches.

The question to be asked is, what was Bizier doing in the ring with Brook in the first place?

For the second time in less than a year, the IBF served up a challenger who didn't merit such an opportunity...

The Special One always looks, well, special against opponents who are not quite at the world level. He has become an expert at making easy work of fighters he is expected to beat comfortably.

Now, though, he needs to be challenged.

Brook admitted as much in his post-fight interview on Sky Sports (h/t Tim Hobbs of SkySports.com): "I hit him with a shot and that was all she wrote. I've got my mandatory out of the way and we're going to get the big fight now."

The pressure is on promoter Eddie Hearn to deliver something big for one of his prized assets in the Matchroom stable.

The moral of the story is that Kell Brook has not been tested. He did no better job against Porter than WW champion Keith Thurman, What tells us that he can do something close to similar with GGG? Nothing!!! However it is K2's job to tell us that we're wrong about Brook! They should not reinforce the notion that this is a mismatch!

That's funny because floyd is older. Both were out of their prime c'mon. Something tells me there would've been excuses even if floyd won if they fought years ago. Flawed logic, Ali can be your grandpa. Don't tell me floyd is 40 years older than pac. Keep it simple buddy.
