Comments Thread For: Brook, Hearn Agree the Time is Right to Move Up to 154 Pounds

What do you base that on?

On his 13 years of not fighting anyone at 147. (Yeah he fought Porter and now Spence)...Thank God.

On his 13 years of not fighting anyone at 147. (Yeah he fought Porter and now Spence)...Thank God.

So out of his last 6 fights he faced Porter, GGG, Spence, 2 mandatories and Frankie Gavin.

He's clearly proven he'll fight anyone. And clearly proven he's not interested in fights no one want to see.

Of course you have an agenda, because you tried to tell everyone that brook would find a way to avoid the fight, even when it was signed.

So we know why you're saying it. however, it has no base in reality.

Brook was clearly up on all cards going into the 8th against Spence who could do very little with him. His eye was fine no swelling (I was ringside!) round 8 Spence was doing the same things Brook was know doing very little?.....you tell me.For me it was doing the weight that caused this .....truly.

I had him winning the fight in the 8th but a combination of him gassing and face falling apart did him in. With 2 bad eyes I don't see him doing shyt at 154 unless he avoids all the top guys and just cherry picks. 2 back to back beat down KOs he will never be the same. He's damage goods and facing jr middleweights instead of welterweights won't be better. His best bet is to cash out and fight khan. Drag him to 154 if they can or maybe go after a fight with cotto who is a semi retired fighter looking for a cash out too. But if he faces any of the top elite guys at 154 its another guaranteed L and more quitting after his face is broken.

Well, at least Brook will soon have one of the strongest faces in boxing! Shout out to maxillo-facial surgeons and titanium plates! Lol! 154 will not be easy! There are about 4 Errol Spence Jr. type cats there, and they're real hungry! On top of that, there's no big money figt. I say Brook should take his new and improved face back to 160! Canelo and GGG are worth the risk! Lara, Charlo, and Andrade are real fighters, but RISK vs. REWARD!

Look like you came in pretty solid at the weight you did not look weight drained and was very muscular,, it's not going to make a difference you will get your ass blown out at 154 by the first Elite fighter you face.

[ShoulderRoll]

I think the top guys at 154 will give him a lot of trouble.

Erislandy Lara, Jermell Charlo, Demetrius Andrade, would all be a handful. I expect Hearn to target the WBO rankings instead since Canelo Alvarez will be leaving that belt vacant. Liam Smith vs Kell Brook coming up!

The truth hurts... 13 years at 147 and 30 odd fights and the list are bums, I don't see that changing at 154, still waiting for that post where I claimed he would duck Spence lol..

[Bumpin]

I think he should retire. Hurd, Jermell, Andrade, Lara, Lubin. It ain't no cakewalk at 154. Hell, even Austin Trout & Tony Harrison are tough fights

I heard that, he really don't want that work.

[MisanthropicNY]

This article makes me further question the eye injury story and whether he ever even had surgery. Probably has the same doctor who treated David Haye's fake injury when he pulled out of the Wlad fight the first time.

Dude just broke two different orbital bones and is already talking moving up to 154? LOL...

[KJR89]

Charlo & andrade will break kells face if he goes to 154.. also hearns a c*nt
