Kell Brook has been so poorly managed/matched through his career.

    he was managed like that to stay undefeated so kooks would think he was good. Once the game was up it didnt matter.

      brook is basically European class fighter and not world class,, everyone who knows anything about boxing knows he was gifted the title when he got a decision against shawn porter, what has he achieved since????

      basically he wants to be acknowledged as a world class fighter without taking meaningful fights......

        Should have took more challenges after beating porter. He really disappointed everyone with his matchmaking after he got the belt, he could have really done better but he held it hostage and fought some bums.
        Then it was almost a case of trying to make up for the bad matchmaking and bums by fighting ggg. That and wanting to outdo khan and canelo.
        Instead of begging for a khan fight and trying to preserve his 0 and fighting bums he should have fought some top fighters, there was plenty of opportunity. He had a belt, there must have been plenty decent welters willing to dance.

          It was going alright for him, up until the Golovkin fight.

          There was completely zero reason to make that fight 'Kell Brook had a WBC belt, and all he needed to do was carry on winning' eventually he would of landed some massive fights.

          Eddie Hearn is a great promoter, but he was bullied? By the mainstream lemmings into throwing Kell Brook in with Golovkin. 'That fight completely ruined kell Brook as a fighter, from a physical perspective and also psychologically'.

          Kell Brook would of been better off holding the WBC belt hostage, eventually the big fights would of come to him 'But instead he took a unnecessary risk in fighting Golovkin' It was a completely ****** fight.

            And killed his career in the process. Genius move.

              Yup.

              Khan always had options and more importantly, a large fanbase. A Kell Brook fight for him will always be a LAST resort and a cash-out last hurrah for Khan.

              For Brook, he centred his entire WW career on the Khan fight hoping it would materialise when he should have just moved up to 154 if he was struggling so much. Eddie Hearn advised him quite badly on that one.

                And people give Brook too many props only because they hate Khan so much.

                  Pretty sure Brook held the IBF belt and Spence was the mandatory and that's why he ended up fighting Spence. Other wise, I don't know why he would have bothered at that time.

                    Brook isn't that good. He has one crappy win over Porter. Clinched his way to victory.

                    What else has he done? Not one signature win.

                      On a personal level, what I am stating is that Eddie Hearn done a very bad job with Kell Brook. 'There was just no need for the Golovkin fight' since that fight Kell Brook has fell into depression, and sustained a injury which has effected how he trains, and also his confidence. 'Sometimes in boxing you have to jump at the big fights, but Kell Brook was not in that position! He was undefeated, had a world championship belt and? Just within himself as a man, was really confident about his work 'All of that has vanished now, and he seemed very irritated, desperate and lost'.

                      Very bad promoting from Eddie Hearn 'That one decision has ruined Kell Brook's career'. 'The fight was not life changing money, Golovkin is not even a all-time great he? At that time he was just the fighter in which people where nutting over'.

                      In some ways Deontay Wilder is in the same position as Kell Brook before he fought Golovkin, and Anthony Joshua is their Golovkin type fight 'A fight which could potentially end his career'.

                      But team Wilder are well aware of the threat Anthony Joshua poses. 'They will take that fight when they have to'.
