    So in the second and third when Golovkin was swinging and missing, getting countered with left hooks and uppercuts - It wasn't close?

    Brook being up on the cards, not close doe

    Obviously the size/power difference was a factor. But it was definitely a close fight.

      respect to kell but no he didn't

        The crowd swayed a lot of people. Of course it often does. Watch it with the sound off. Much different reaction.

          kell did about as good as he possibly could. He landed some great combos but they didnt have any affect.

          Showed a good chin but you can have the best chin in the world and still get stopped by power, the same way margarito never went down vs pac but got his face broken.

          Kells trainer made a great call, in the 5th kell stopped throwing back for large portions of the round and was on the run, he was pawing at his busted eye and he had no chance at winning at that point and only stood to take more and more of a beating.

          HBO crew were hyping up kells bravery and all but going toe to toe like that benefits the naturally larger and bigger puncher in GGG, so while GGG did get hit a lot, the brawl they both went after obviously was to GGGs benefit.

            If you watched the sky coverage the pundits and the crowd were almost pretending that kell was even relevant in the fight. Pathetic.

            Golovkin was not even trying and stopped him way before the halfway point. Not even close.


            Accurate.

            GGG basically touched the accelerator in the fifth when he decided enough 'fun' had been had.

                This is because at the backs of everyones minds was the fear that brook would get humiliated by the much better man. He wasn't. He stepped up and at least shined a light on all the cowards around the world who are ducking golovkin............Thats something i suppose.

                    He ain't no slick, he ain't no 'hit and not be hit'...

                    GGG threw 301 and landed 133 (44.2%), in less than 5 rounds, and stopped da slick bruvva'...

                    ... Vs Brand, Ward landed ‎190 of 490 blows (39%) in 12 rounds...

                      Brook didn't win, but he proved to be the better boxer, he exposed Golovkin and at the end of the day, it was inevitable from the beginning that Brook would lose this. But even me, TheBoxingXpert, is surprised at how bad Brook made Golovkin look.
