    I still don't understand that second round. In the first round I thought... well Brook is fast, which was understandable. In the second round Golovkin just looked like a complete tool. Still he managed to get Brook's eye broken, luckily for him.

    ...
    In the 2nd, Golovkin just gave up his stiff jab... for some reason...

      His success is hugely overstated. Golovkin showed him respect for like the first minute. After he hurt him with the body shot he threw all respect out the window. He walked forward with little strategy or care, looking to slug and stop Brook. Even then Brook only won one round.

          Brook was brilliant, but the problem with this argument is that GGG busted the eye with a punch. It wasn't bad luck.

              I was actually surprised at Brooks willingness to trade with GGG, he showed some real dog.

              Without the damaged eye just think he would have lasted a few more rounds but the result was never really in doubt.

              I give props to Brook, he showed his calibre as a technician AND his heart as a fighter.

              He proved a lot of doubters wrong in those few rounds.

                  What got me about that round was how badly Golovkin feinted Brook right before the knockdown.

                    If Brook was a legit 160 his whole career I'd favor him to beat ggg quite easily.
