      Mitts are supposed to tell us something about his stamina and speed while weathering the rolling thunder?

      I haven't been watching his workouts, or commenting about his speed but he wasn't particularly fast at 147 so it only stands to reason that he's going to be slower at 160.

      I hope he does well, but I've never been one to read into mitt work. He's just arm punching and entertaining the fans. When has this type of thing ever been insightful for an actual fight?

      Anyway, thx for the vid. I haven't seen any of his prep until now.

          Don't care how slow/fast he is... He's not beating GGG.

          If he can make it to round 8, without absolutely running and holding every minute, it will be a victory.

          He's gonna crumble like chedda' under GGG's punches.

            that vid needs to be taken down, it doesnt fit with the narrative that brooks some obese middleweight who is slow as ****. Thats what people are trying to make brook out to be.

              By landing more punches or knocking him out.

                Brook is fast when he wants to be. But more importantly, it's Brook's timing and positioning. The man has genius level boxing IQ.

                  I don't completely disagree with you, but it's that narrative that makes me even more excited for this fight as many don't Brook to do very well. I'm hoping he does well.

                    Kell's speed is always under-rated.

                    He's fast on top of being very accurate and sharp, speed looks good.

                    It's not going to be about the speed or skill, it's how does he hold up against the size.
