Comments Thread For: Kell Brook: My Team Wants Me To Go To 154 Pounds

[slimPickings]

Lots off diplomats here trying to spin/explain away why Brook will not or should not fight his current mandatory when he has not had any problem doing so in the past.

Most of you guys will do well in politics and make good money doing it.

Too bad this is boxing and sooner or later Brook will have to make a decision or the IBF will make it for him!!

Time is running out for Brook!!

Spin it all you want but Spence is CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER. Brook knows it and his choir knows it.

Champs ( like Degale, Badou, Jermall etc) have pride and they will defend their turf no matter who the opposition is. Its what CHAMPIONS DO!!!
We all respect and appreciate them for that. It is good for boxing.

Brook on the other hand, is fast becoming a joke. A big joke. Its becoming borderline embarrassing.

Mention Spence and he starts to stutter and divert the talk to Amir.
Yet he has his army of diplomats and spinsters who will try to explain away his reasons for avoiding his mandatory. Truly appalling.

Why does Brook not take a page from the Jermall Charlo book and shut up this kid called Spence!!
WHY?
Is it asking too much for a champ to defend his belt?

Make the fight in Britain, promote it well and it will be HUGE!!

Brook owes it to himself ( if he has any pride or ba11$) as a champ to go for Spence.
Nothing more will do.


In the meantime let the diplomats continue to explain or come up with excuses why a Brook should not face Errol Spence.

It makes good and comical reading.

Brook is one of my favorite foghters but he has turned into a full blown coward

So in comparison, Brook was a nobody before 16th-August-2014
Therefore the myth of Khan ducking Brook up-to that point is a load of hogwash.

Then again after Brook got stabbed in September the same year, He managed to stay irrelevant for another 07 months and than faced "mandatory" on 28th-March-2015.
Therefore Khan couldn't have ducked him up-till that point either.

So where is the myth comes from that Khan is avoiding Brook for years ??

****** and totally wrong comparison.

Brook was known in the UK where the market for a Khan fight was. If Khan vs Brook had happened in 2014 prior to Brook becoming champ, it would have still been a huge PPV fight.

Nobody knows who Spence is in the U.S or the UK. What money is he bringing to the table? Brook is not Anthony Joshua, he can't sell 500k PPVs fighting anyone.

He needs a dance partner.

There was similarity when Canelo was holding a belt and didn't want to fight Golovkin. He eventually gave it up. Except the group sympathetic to Canelo, or anti-Golovkin won't be there for Brook this time, even if they also hate Khan. It will be the opposite because their brotha Spence is on the line.

It's true but it's not the same.

Brook is not holding up nothing. He's medically not allowed to even spar. The IBF have allowed it.

Man this is a bunch of horse crap. The first time he has a legitimate mando, he is gonna give away his title. Where's the F is the heart? if weight really was an issue he could've face Spence before GGG. As for his momentum, any fan worth having will give him respect and props regardless of if he wins or loses.. Better that then going to 154 and having trilogy with Carson Jones

Don't you think that not being able to make weight without weakening yourself is a legitimate reason for relinquishing a title and moving up?

Why Carson Jones? I keep reading here about what an awesome division 154 is .. stacked with talent etc .. so why mention Carson Jones?

"if weight really was an issue he could've face Spence before GGG."

You accuse me of talking horse**** then write something as dumb as that?
