    "Brooks ran from a small guy to fight the most dangerous fighter in boxing". How is that looked down upon?
    yeah its crazy and isnt logical at all, but then again these negative and bitter posters wont let logic get in the way of their chance to **** on a fighter.

      Only on this site are folks so blinded by their fandom for one fighter that they fail to see all aspects of the fight game.

      Brook is moving up two weight classes is a bold move. Gotta respect him for that. I'm not however going to ignore the motivation for it, which appears to be the purse. Recall...he accepted the fight in hours.

        Maybe you can't respect or understand other people's opinions and perspectives because you assume that they are bitter and that their motivation is to put GGG down.

        Here is what's funny...the same folks who say Golovkin is the truth because of the way he has beaten low end competition are also questioning how fans rate Spence on the basis of his competition being low end. It's duplicitous.

          Theres a large amount of posters on here for whom putting GGG down is their only motivation to be on the site, whether you are one of them i dont know, apologies if you arent. I like spence too but fed up of people criticising brook for moving up in weight, yeah moneys part of the reason but he wants to challenge himself and shut people up who were saying hes a cherry picker, which was a lot of people in UK after his recent opposition

                  Yet but the fact is everyone knows that if it was Saunders fighting Brook you would be trashing fight.

                  You are only interested in talking Brook up because GGG is fighting him.

                    no i wouldnt, im a fan of brook. I'd probably fancy brook to beat saunders to be honest if he manages the weight jump well.
