    Fighter will never say no. Blind to reality.

      Wasnt a war tested warrior like barrera was against Pac. But Pac critics like to say Barrera had been in wars so was past prime? When in actual fact Barrera was prime when he lost to Pac. Being in wars dont make you past prime, it may shorten your career though.
      But you are right it makes you battle tested and proven.

        he should never have gone in with golovkin. But he did because eddie hearn is a money grabbing jerk.
        ... Of course he shouldn't have... Brook actually wanted GGG at 157... when the Eubank Jr fight fell through, Hearn tempted Kell to take that money fight... which Brook took in the blink of an eye...

          I said that when the Golovkin fight was announced.

          Hearn sold him down the river then turned around and done the same to Bellew, who got very lucky, and Allen to a lesser degree.

          Brook is going to struggle with 12 rounds at 147 moving forward. He's not going to have the energy at that weight to keep up what he does over the distance. Brook was 5-1 or 4-2 up at the halfway point and slowed drastically.

                Agreed. He made the ggg fight for the money. Then he puts him in a fight where he has to lose a good or of weight against a top guy with big power. I guess he makes the khan fight next.

                  Risked his fighters health for £££.

                  That's hearn for ya.
                  Kell Brook wanted the fight. We got a good fight, why are you such a whiner?

                  Complaining about fighters taking risks, jeeezzus.

                    Brook called out GGG on ifl and Bellew in a post fight interview demanded the Haye fight and followed it up all the following week how is either Hearn selling them down the river. Both fights were the biggest of their careers and the fight they wanted pretty much exactly what Hearn is paid to do.
