      And Canelo .. he has milk white skin, green eyes, red hair .. but he isn't white, because he was born in Mexico!
      I think Tom Jones is Brook's father

        That's supposed to be a secret only Kell Brook fans know about.

          There is no such thing as "race". It does not exist.

            I doubt it. That would mess up his unification plans and breaking Hopkins title defence record. Ward announced he wants to fight Anthony Joshua and that he's interested in going up to cruiserweight.

                He'd definitely have been the underdog at 168 lbs vs. Ward. Let me see what he looks like against Canelo.

                  I'm a big fan of Golovkin but Ward might be a step too far for many reasons. The most obvious being the difference in size. The second is Ward's dirty boxing that he gets a pass lon by the refs and media.

                    Depends on the weight. At 164 or even 168, I think GGG has a great chance, although he'd have to negate a lot of Wards butts, elbows and low blows, so I guess it falls on the referee.

                    At 175 I think GGG is too small and loses not only to Ward but more convincingly to someone like Stevenson or KOv.
