Comments Thread For: Kell Brook Destroys Sergey Rabchenko in Two Rounds

[hitking]

Glad Brook got this one outta the way. I applaud him daring to be great with the GGG fight. And I admire him being a true champion and giving Spence his shot. But honestly, had I been advising his career, I would have been against both fights. I would have been against GGG because Gennady just isn’t the guy you wanna make that daring a move against. And fighting Spence after GGG was just crazy. Especially dropping back all the way down to 47 to do so. IMO he should have dropped the belt and told Spence he was still willing to fight him. But it would have to be at 54, or a catchweight between 47 and 54.

Either way, I’m curious to see if Brook can make some noise at 54. I know Khan is the fight he wants. But I wouldn’t invest a lot of energy in making it a priority. Khan thinks he’s a bigger star than he really is. And I’m not 100% confident Khan even wants to fight Brook. A more interesting matchup for Brook to me is Spence’s stablemate Jermell Charlo. If he were able to beat Jermell, maybe he could get a chance to avenge that Spence loss at a more comfortable weight.

Good win for Kell Brook

Good win, his eye looked a bit puffy for just two rounds work. But maybe am looking for something that isn’t there. Hope he gets in the mix at 154, but those guys there are massive for their weight class.

He looked sharp. Good to see him back.

I don't think he will face anyone like Charlo too soon. I don't think they want anyone throwing a spanner in the works of a Khan fight.

Khan's got a 3 fight deal with Hearn..if i'm not mistaken?
So 2 winnable fights for Khan, another for Brook, then they meet?

I still don't know if that one happens. It makes sense for them money-wise, but Khan likse to call the shots and he'd probably want it at 147. Which will be tough for Brook. Especially as time goes on.

Anyone can look sharp when facing a bum.

Great post!
Brook can beat anybody at 154, including Charlo.

Yeah I'd say Charlo is just a bit too ordinary to beat Brook.

lol. Some people talking like Kell Brook matters. He doesn't.

He's the only possible big money fight for anyone at 154.

But seriously, Allen is like the realest guy in boxing. Funny as hell but always speaks the truth in every interview, he's also hyper-aware of just how good he isn't and knows that domestic belts are pretty much his ceiling. That's why I really hope he wins this fight, cuz he might not get another chance at one if he loses this fight. Check out some of his IFL interviews though, guy says the funniest ****

Tbh he's lucky he is real and has a personality of some sort. However in terms of talent, he's admitted he's not good.

I do wish more like him had some limelight.

I guess we get emotionally attached when we see people we like

I think Brook is at his best at 154,but sadly bigger beasts in the division.

At 147 he had to drain way too much. He's naturally a big guy for his height and as a boxer. I think he enjoys food

Khan's chin would get shattered before his wife has even had a chance to warm up Joshua's anaconda

f**k sake haha

You couldn't.
