Obviously, Brook is getting praise for making GGG look clueless for a couple rounds, not for the fight getting stopped. But he'll be back in 5-6 months according to drs., so that's good news.

LSC, the jury's out until he rematches Frampton... but for now he was exposed IMO with the first stiff challenge. BTW, Khan wasn't batting Canelo around like Brook was doing to GGG for a couple rounds there.

Kell Brook is not a small welterweight, hes fkg huge and probably a fairly big 154, he was heavier than Golovkin who is kinda small for a middleweight champion.
Any smaller fighter is going to be able to mark up a bigger fighters skin but hurting is a different matter

Originally posted by Bronx2245 View PostThe point is Salido, Porter, Santa Cruz, and Comney lost, but they performed on a high level. Brook got his face broken, and his corner threw in the towel or he would've suffered the same fate as Khan! Khan won rounds just like Brook, but the result is the same! If no towels, there would've been stretchers!

Originally posted by PunchyPotorff View PostThink what you want, but, again, Khan wasn't batting Canelo around like Brook was doing to GGG for a couple rounds there. There IS a difference. Don't wanna accept GGG was seriously schooled, nose bloodied, Abel chewing him out, even had legs buckled once? That's fine. Your choice. Cheers.
Brook and GGG are the same size, GGG just fights at his natural weight, Brook drained himself for as long as he could. Difference is that GGG had experience fighting at MW and Brook did not.Last edited by Jubei; 09-17-2016, 09:05 PM.

Khan also never hurt anyone at 147 yet he was knocked down multiple time at that weight. How can you even compare Khan to Brook who is undefeated and never even went down in his career and outclassed a legit Top WW in Porter. Brook started his boxing career at Welterweight, GGG at Light Welter, Canelo at Welter and Khan at Lightweight.
