    Kell f@cked up when he chose to fight Jo Jo Dan, Frankie Gavin, and Kevin Bizier, in 3 consecutive fights after a MD with Porter! When you're not facing top talent, you believe you're good enough to beat GGG @ 160! Then comes "The Truth!" Truth is, he was never that good! Beating DeLuca doesn't mean you're ready for Spence or Crawford! Go fight Vergil Ortiz Jr. or Israil Madrimov on DAZN! That's a good measuring stick!

      ... you better compare Brook's career to Jermall Charlo's...

        I feel he wasted himself trying to be the big man and fight GGG , fought a pole of bums after the porter fight and chased a khan fight too long. At 33 i dont know how much he has left. Hearn should have had him in with guys like garcia, thurman crawford way before he stepped up to middleweight to have his eyes re arranged. Plus brook v frankie gavin was ppv, i shamefully paid for it....i'll never forgive myself lol

          He’s delusional he wasn’t beating Spence for 6 or 7 rounds that was a comprehensive beatdown he won a couple rounds but he was taking heavy leather all night. Spence gets no credit he’s easily the best at 147

            Amir Khan ruined Brook's career. Brook copied him by fighting GGG and paid the price. Now Brook is the new Amir Khan. He can no longer back up his talk in the ring.

              Charlo needs a big fight, no doubt, but he did beat K9, Trout, J-Rock, and Korobov. I think that's a little better than Brook's opponents! Brook's best win before Porter was Senchenko in 2013! After Porter...No Bueno!

                In his fights with Porter, Spence and GGG alone, til this day Brook has still put in more work than most of these ****ing cowards you cornballs think are the best.

                  147 is always a very deep division. Brook deserves respect from British fans for winning a title at the weight - because it's a division Brit fighters don't win world titles in.
                  The last proper Brit 147 champion was Loyd Honeyghan, 30 years before Brook. Yes, Hatton won a WBA belt from Collazzo in '06, but it was a gift decision, and he never actually won any other fights at 147 after that. He only went up from 140 to fight Mayweather.
                  As for the next generation of Brit 147 fighters, we're looking at Josh Kelly and Connor Benn?? So don't hold your breath, it could be a long time before the next one.

                    Kell Brook is a very good fighter. He fought very competitive fights against both GGG and Spence. Whether he realizes this or not, his body is not strong enough to handle the super welter and middle weight elite. He may wanna stick to 147lbs even if it's tough to make that weight....because that's his best fighting weight and class. If I were him, I'd call on the likes of Danny Garcia, Thurman and even Crawford (who I believe he can legitimately beat). He should also fight that bum Khan and shut his mouth and finish his pathetic career. People are looking at Brooks loses to GGG and Spence....without really understanding he fought a class that his body can't handle. That class actually destroyed his body and will continue to if he decides to keep fighting bigger opponents. And before folks begin to say Spence isn't a middleweight fighter - Spence is in a league of his own (except for when Porter is involved). Spence, when healthy is dangerous. He hits hard and takes punches very well.
