Then goes on to knock out the P4P #1 at the same weight.
Brook isn't a P4P fighter and will likely do fuck all at 160 ever.
If you can't see the difference in quality you're dumb.Comment

Sorry Chuckguy, but that's a weak argument. Weight had nothing to do with the schooling Floyd gave JMM. He flat out outboxed him, it was a borderline clinic. That doesn't change no matter what they weigh compared to each other. JMM coulda been the bigger guy and he still loses. And you have to give Floyd all the credit in the world because JMM is a fantastic boxer and overall fighter, and one of the best combination punchers ever. To school him the way Floyd did, that was special.
the difference in quality is big, but Brook is both a quality opponent in and of itself, and he is naturally bigger than a welterweight. It will be competitive and it should be.Comment

Lots of boxers are threatened or scared by many things but don't admit it. Gig is scared cos of what brook can do at 147. Doesn't mean gig don't think he can beat brook.
I'm sure at school you were scared of smaller guys because of attitude or ability or whatever. Any phcologist will tell you there is no medical evidence to support the idea you can't be threatened by smaller guys,Last edited by hugh grant; 09-02-2016, 04:35 AM.Comment

He was reacting to Brook being a welterweight. He had no idea until now that Brook was actually heavier than him! If you asked him again now, he would have a different answer. He was just answering off the top of his head back then, not being a boxing scout. He heard Brook, knew Brook fought at weltweight, and said "well welterweights are smaller than me." He didn't realize many of them actually scale down from higher weights than him, like Brook or Floyd who struggled so much to scale down to 147 after possibly juicing all camp, he had to take IVs to rehydrate and probably mask the PED use.
GGG doesn't have to do those things because he has the skills and power to fight around his normal weight, so he didn't understand what these other fighters were doing.
genius, Golovkin had no idea that Brook was "heavier than him" until the 30-day weigh-in..... and it SHOCKED everybody
when Golovkin signed that fight, he thought that Brook was " too small "
stop being ridiculous you clown, Brook is a WELTER..... walk-around weight is totally irrelevant in boxing, because we use weight divisions..... and if you believe that hogwash then you ARE as dumb as you appear to beComment

Gig didn't know brook absolutely starved himself to make 147 when he claimed brook was too small. Gig knows by that brook is big guy not small. Gig knows he eats whatever he wants to maintain his middleweight size and it would be hard to make 168.Comment
