Comments Thread For: Kell Brook Explains a Whirlwind of Change During Long Layoff

[Ray*]

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!

Not trying to defend Brook here, but after he won the porter fight. He was out injured for months, due to the stabbing incident, and he had mandatories that piled up too. So you better compare that to when Wilder had his surgery and then fought the like of Gerald Washington whilst kinda waiting for the right time to fight Povetkin.

Lotta boxing fans luv to trash Brook, all the while ignoring his talent. Not the best move to go up 2 weight classes vs GGG, then right afterwards fight Spence and the big weight loss needed to do so. He has a big task ahead of him here, and his career is on the line. But I still think his talent isn't in question... it's the bad decisions he made in choosing fights.

Brook is a Really good fighter. I wish he was American and with PBC.
