Comments Thread For: Kell Brook vs. Sergey Rabchenko: WBC Silver Belt At Stake

[chitownfightfan]

A warrior that quit against the only 2 live opponents he faced......

His corner threw in the towel after he ate 5/6 head shots after having nearly been KOd in the 1st, then getting his orbital broke in the 3rd.

Vs Spence, he was ahead on most objective cards going into the championship rds, where his newly broken orbital and a near empty gas tank allowed AN ELITE 147-160 youngster to drill him and stop him.

Come to think of it.... pretty certain the ref counted 10.

Hows either of those a quit job.

A broken orbital bone each time. Question is.... would YOU stay in there for a few rounds after it happened? Think not homeboy. Easy to say, but damn hard to do

Excellent post.

Difficult to determine the pain level, but the chance of permanent damage is up there.

Brook gave Spence fits for 8 rds before he began to fade.

Mello is a legit talent no doubt, but Brook was an elite.
Unless he's broken beyond physical and mental repair, he will smote Rabchenko as Harrison did, and if the Mello v Brook fight happens, Mello will have his first L.

First L for Jermell? Seriously doubt that. Jermell has the size, reach and power advantage. He also has a pretty good jab. Brook will be forced to box a perfect fight and that's a very tough task. His defense isn't that great nor his is power enough to keep Jermell off of him. Brook will likely get stopped.

You forget Brook has great body attack.
Genuine power rocking both GGG and Spence.

Mello would definitely be the better outside fighter, but Brook comes over any jab that ain't got a R hand directly behind it.

And remember.... Brook would be the shorter fighter, but filled out, he'd have 5/10 lbs on Mellow.
And that ain't Lubins neck. (Glass????)
Ain't Martirosyans poor footwork.
Ain't got Hatleys or Jackson's glass Jaws.

Brook not only got iron chin, but got the best in-game 140-175.
Body work... combination punching.... counter R hands inside....

Martirosyan was a GREAT WIN for Mello.

But he needs a more complete test for me to favor him over a recovered Brook

Porter is not top opponent or what?

this fight crept up on us quick

That's a good retirement fight for both of them. Win or lose, they should both retire.

I dont think it will be the next match up.
Khan has a 3 fight deal and im sure he will leave this fight to last cause he has a good chance in loosing.

Asoon as he looses his next fight i think all the interest people had for him in his come back fights will be gone and no-one will really give a **** about Khan no more.

Tough fight coming back off such a bad injury.We will see if Kell still has it for sure.

You underestimate Khan's ignorant fan base. I how no idea why he has fans, but if he still has fans up to this point, they'll want to see him fight Brook no matter how many times he gets knocked out up and till that point.

Appreciate it brother. A lot of people on here have no idea what kind of pain thrush holds they have, bc they have never been in that situation, or something of similar stature
