    When, in reality, Brook won't even fight someone in the top 50 in the 154 division. Instead he fights another feather-fisted, C level fighter. SMH

    Let Brook get a couple of wins before he takes on Charlo or Hurd. He has just been in there with Golovkin and Spence. You can't expect him to just go straight into one of those fights.

    Why, is Spence going to move up to Lightmiddle is he? Because that's the only way the fight happens.

    Charlo has fought this level his whole career, so if Brook isn't a warrior, i'd love to see what you would call Charlo.

      I don't know if he is, but in this age of mega diva's it refreshing to see a fighter like Cook attempt to step up in competition and find out for himself...I have seen him battle hard at Hershey a few times, if his career advances he needs to leave the local scene and take on these fights. I am not a Brook fan, so not really concerned about his career but will really enjoy seeing Cook's best effort out there.

That's 3 out of 40 fights that he's faced a good fighter and yet some fans still consider him some elite fighter? Brook talks a good game but then ends up fighting some can.
        Brook is a good fighter, to call him a bum is nothing short of ridiculous. Which fighters around today have fought that kind of opposition in 39 fights? The way you talk is like fighters have much better challenges than Brook and do so in fewer fights. That is not the case in todays boxing world. So don't be ignorant.

            What fighters have fought that kinda of opposition in 39 fights? Really? 3 good names in 40 fights. The man he's chasing, Khan has less fights and fought and beat way bigger names than Brook. There's bunch of fighters who are taking on top fighters not waiting till they're 10 years in as a pro.

              So Khan is all you can come up with? Surely you have many more names who have done better to prove your point?

                I could go on but that's just a few. 40 fights, 3 top fighters and only beat 1. Doesn't matter that it was GGG or Spence. Took him 10 years to step up and fight someone like Porter. He mentions top fighters and ends up fighting tomato cans. Remember this guy had a trilogy against Ernie Smith, his record was 11-80 when Brook fought him the first time.

                  Brook is gash. The typical UK fighter, bums all the way until he can cash out with a big payday which they likely lose.

                    He was 18/19 when he fought that guy, started real young, had a couple of stabbing setbacks aswell.

                      Garcia, Thurman, Santa Cruz, Stevenson, Porter, Crawford, Jack, Hurd and Mikey most certainly haven't fought higher competition than GGG, Spence and Porter. Not a chance. The rest are either the same or just a little bit higher.

                      Brook would have fought better if Garcia, Thurman and Vargas were willing to unify with him but they wouldn't. Spence finds himself in the same position but i'm sure you wouldn't have the same feelings towards him would you?
