Comments Thread For: Brook: I Want To Shut Khan Up, Then Move On To Spence, Porter

[MDPopescu]

Lots of reasons why Brook looked crap last night:
New trainer
Ring rust
Weight issue?

I really think him Yo-yoing in weight isn’t good for him

His last 4 fights have been 160,147,154 and 150

I think he definitely isnt a 147lbs boxer, he should only fight at 154

... indeed, Brook came at 150lb on the scales (still hoping for that Khan fight)...
... and I can't see why PBC fighters like Porter or Spence would fight him (again)...

Brook Ices Khan, that's the majority opinion on the outcome if they ever fight. Khans gonna make sure Brook gets as little credit as possible too by getting KTFO as much as he can beforehand.

Brook wants Khan?? Dude should aim higher

He won rhe fight easily. Crawford struggled more against a lower ranked opponent

My impression was that Crawford was playing games and staged the last round KO because he certainly did not do his clinical dismantling thing like he did against Horn.

Brook is in a poor position. Too big for welterweight and the LMW are too big for him. Khan is just a money fight for him thats all. Both are past it.

Noone cares whether they fight or not!
Really, neither of them are popular in UK. Brook is only known for getting beaten up off golovkin and what popularity Khon had dwindled years ago.
Both were never much good anyway and just looking to cash out.

Now, if Brook's next performance is also flat, then we can start talking about him being finished. But, for now at least, I still think he has some miles left on the tires.

Agreed. Also I think he could have over trained trying to be light to show Khan and the WW he is still able to get to 147 as he came in at 150. I do however think he would be much better off fighting Hurd or Charlo at 154 then killing himself to fight at 147. I know 147 is hot but he can make a name for himself at 154 and then Spence would probably come up to 154 for a challenge.

Yes, definitely some good points there.

This won't convince Khan to take the fight, we're not seeing this fight

He fooled people by going to america and beating porter?

Porter bless his heart, nice fella but very average boxer.
