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

[Madison Boxing]

some of the comments on here lol. people moan that brooks not fought anyone, but youre all desperate for him to fight some unknown prospect. if brook beat him youd all just say 'spence was all hype'. Brook wants big fights at this stage in his career, not fights against some kid who noones heard of and whos best win is chris algieri

"I'd not be doing my job properly if I put him in there with someone like Spence" - Hearn. This is BS. It's the fight people want to see, shame eddie is ducking as I think Brook wins anyway. I don't even give a damn about Brook v Khan anymore way too late

I guess it's Yuri Foreman vs Brook next? That would probably be Kell's 3rd best opponent in his entire career?

If you actually followed the sport back then you'd be aware that Brook was in a very similar position to what Spence is in now except he actually pulled out of his mandatory shot against Alexander due to injury and didn't reschedule, that got him a lot of the bad rep he has from some fans. Spence has not even had the luxury of signing for the fight yet let alone pull out.

I shouldn't be explaining this to you but as usual you embarrass yourself with a lack of knowledge of anything pre the Golovkin hype train.

all im saying is spence can wait in line, cause brooks got better options. He should be more active at his age too, getting his name out there. Noone outside this forum knows who he is.

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?

That's bs and you know it, especially when you can read in the article that he is willing to face Khan, and Khan is dictating 147 to Brook since Brook is always in desprate mode to get Khan on any terms.. You and the Brook fanboys are more worried about his weight then Brook is. He has said so him self on a video that he and his nutrionist belive that he can still make 147. His team and his fanboys want him to move up.
But that aint gonna do him no favors. Instead of headlining Vegas soon enough, it is gonna be back to beeing a hometown "hero"

Ironically the first guy who spoke to me about Spence was a mate at uni about 4 or 5 years ago, he like me followed the sport. I was surprised he wasn't on boxingscene with how much he knew.

Spence is front of the line if Brook wants to keep his belt. Spence is not desperate for a fight with Brook himself he wants the belt, it will stop guys like Thurman and Garcia acting like he's not worth their time while fighting guys he already beat ( in Garcia's case)

Kell brock blowing smoke again, talking real tough at first him and Eddie , now they wanna move up in weight to avoid the real goons that's been waiting for him. What a joke!

[LacedUp]

And you like to think yourself as a Brook Fan ??

He got the title shot against Porter. In March IBF ordered it for July-August
Rest of the year he was injurred

And in your mind that would take precedence over a Khan fight?
