Comments Thread For: Jacobs' Trainer: 'Of Course' Golovkin Was Hurt By Kell Brook

[Bronx23]

& the ww left with a broken face. Now if Jacobs splits ggg guard things will be different but the approach from both will be different guys. And thats my point, theres a huge difference in approach when u fight a mw rather than a ww. Neither guys a bytch & knows the task at hand. Fight favors ggg but Jacobs is a very live dog!

This pretty much

You might be heartbroken Sunday morning.

The American might win....we both know you don't want that.

I won't be heartbroken Sunday. Actually I want the best man to win. If that's Jacobs than so be it. And why wouldn't I want an American to win? I'm American. You can be very silly sometimes but thanks for being concerned

So? This guy thinks that Brook was beat GGG. Someone must wake him up from the dream so, GGG already won that fight in the 5th round by TKO!

Why are people so surprised Brook was able to land on GGG, Brook isn't getting any credit for a brave performance where he got through and clearly tagged GGG. Unfortunately the orbital injury happened and the rest is history, but it's not far fetched to think Brook was going to have a couple good rounds.

Very true. Yes Brook moved up but was higher weight 30 days out and fight night. He had trouble making 147 and I really think it may be his last at 147 if he is to drained. Kell was a full fledged MW fighting GGG when they fought, no if ins or butts about it!!! And nobody knows Brooks power at 160 but GGG which will not be easy to get a proper answer do to some of the hard punchers he has been in himself. But Brook could certainly be on the same level if not even better then Jacobs. You would have to match them to know? Hell Mora made Jacobs look beatable but remember Mora is a small light hitting MW that lost to Vernon Forrest, tied with Sugar Shane.
Basically I'm saying Jacobs has little chance IMHO to bet GGG. I have GGG by KO before 8!

After seeing Brook go toe toe with GGG I would give him a great chance of beating anybody except Golovkin at 160, including Jacobs.

How many fights at MW does Brook have??????

How many 160lb fighters has Kell Brook fought?

How many fights at 160 did Sugar Ray Leonard have before moving up and beating Hagler?

Brook hurt Golovkin but he was never in any danger. We've never seen Golovkin in danger so we don't know how he'll react if he gets badly hurt. Incidentally, Jacobs has not been in any real danger either. Mora caught him coming in wildly with a perfect punch. He got right back up and went after Mora. He didn't retreat! The Pirog KO looked worst than it was because for some reason he laid there (I believe more from shock). When he collected himself and tried to get up the ref pushed him back down and waved the fight off. From what I've seen Jacobs will respond well if he goes down against Golovkin.

Ok, so how much was Brook hurt by GGG? Case closed.

[mathed]

Yep. Brook showed his boxing skill set and managed to get in a few shots (al biet ineffective). Golovkin didn't take him seriously but when he decided to end the fight, he ended it. Period. Golovkin even criticized himself after the fight. He graded his performance a 4 out of 10. Don't expect the same thing with Jacobs. Golovkin is taking this fight very seriously and will demonstrate that on Saturday night. Can't wait for Sunday morning.

I swear, GGG must have done a lot of wrong to a lot of people the way posters here talk about him. All I know is that Lemieux just destroyed a guy that was a legit threat and GGG destroyed him when he was viewed as GGG's biggest threat. It was probably GGG's best performance of his career. Now he's fighting the next BIGGEST threat of his career and if he demolishes Jacobs in similar fashion, some of these haters are going to have some issues for sure.

Sunday morning will indeed be interesting.
