    If GGG hadn't cherry picked Brook....

    Spence would have twp belts. Thurman would have two belts. And the welterweight division would be headed towards unification next year. Pac wouldn't be down under hiding with a belt.

    I never thought it like that but possibly. If brook got the Vargas fight. All we can hope now is pacqiuao fights Crawford and the welterweight division keeps making these good fights.

      IMO him fighting brook ruined any shot he had at a real legacy......he ducked ward for a fight like that too

      hes been chasing a kid who has fought 97 percent of his career at 147 and 154 ...and has 0 wins against ranked mws.....

      the one time he fought a legit, talented, mw...he struggled

      he has no shot at a legit legacy

        Yeah he cherry picked him, because brook stepping in for eubanks had nothing to do with it.

        my god you're a spastic.

            So Kell Brook was the only fighter available from 154-168?

              lmao...righttttttt

              i think thats the part about the brook cherrypick that bothered me the most...the fact that they tried to sell it to the public as an accident.....it was no accident....the fight had been rumored/speculated as much as a year before it was made...

              then loeffler says "well we would have fought degale if he was offered to us"....welppppppp...how about asking hearn and earning some respect as opposed to cherrypicking a WW? lol

              loeffler has talked about how they make fights...how they have a list and work from the top to bottom...if the top guy doesnt have his signature by a certain time they move to the next guy......butttttttt....somehow they just kept waiting and waiting on eubank till the last second with no signature? cmon...nobody buyin that garbage but his fanboys.....

              if they had just been honest about it i wouldnt have lost total respect...most of what i had left....but not total

                  you do realize how fights are made right?

                  when your top option hasnt signed his name by a certain time you move on to your next option...a guy like golovkin has a list of several guys he would fight (loeffler has stated this)

                  why did loeffler keep waiting and waiting till the last possible second with eubank with no signature? instead of moving on to option b?

                  it makes no sense if you think about it logically and without a biased slant

                    If GGG was black you would support everything he does, you racist ****.

                    I would say.... what if black Eubank jr wouldn't have scaped from a GGG fight on short notice? that should be a better description of the situation. GGG had no opponents at MW at that date, you ****** POS.
