Comments Thread For: Kell Brook: Terence Crawford Wants The Fight, Arum Does Too

[Bronx2245]

Much rather Crawford vs. Porter, WBO #6 Custio Clayton, or WBO #13 Jaron "Boots" Ennis. Brook dropping back to 147 is foolish! He should fight Michel Soro or Jarrett Hurd @ 154!

Fixed, and as fixed, I agree.

Did you ?
Give it a rest bro.
If you have a different opinion than mine post and we can discuss.
But if you're one of these guys just trying to hate on a certain fighter / promoter. I'm not interested.

So Crawford and his fans were saying that there's nothing to gain by beating Porter when that fight was being thrown around and Crawford turned it down. Now your going to tell me that Crawford has something to gain by beating Brook? Brook hasn't been relevant in years, hasn't beat anyone of note in years, and hasn't fought at 147 in years, he's washed up, and now a washed up fighter is going to drain himself to make 147 and I'm supposed to believe that it's going to be competitive?. Your fooling yourself if you think this fight is dangerous for Crawford, Porter is dangerous for Crawford and that's why he ducked him.

Another boxing seminar for Brook.. Or, in a less intellectual way, an aging pôrnstar looking to work in one last flick. The beauty and the charms have gone, but for the nostalgics and delusional, she's still a whollata woman. lol

If this fight gets made the Brits will hype Brook and it will be another beat down. Then the excuses will come that he was hurt already, layoff, weight loss etc.

This is another fight that TR likes, the easy UK money.

Why not? What are the options for him or Bud? The other names are with PBC

Punch resistance

When will he "Dare to become great"?

SRL needed a challenge while at 147.
He went to 154, & fought the best(Kalule).

Crawford can fight guys like Lubin, Trout &, J-Rock.
You mentioned, Hurd, how about Ugas, Lippinents, & the one person that's been calling him out since140. in Prograis.

I truly think Crawford can't take a punch from someone that is universally ranked, or on equal staure to him.
He's been avoiding all the guys I mentioned.

Now enter a faded Brook.
Dude is a sham at 147....

Kell Brook is a big name easy fight for Crawford. Brook has done nothing in years. You can't fight someone like Crawford fighting the level of opposition Brook has recently. Khan already showed this.

Seems like Brook wants to emulate Khan in every way possible

[ShoulderRoll]

He'll fight Kell Brook but not Shawn Porter? GTFO.

Crawford is wasting his prime with these shitty fights.

Brook clearly has very little interest in earning his shot, hes sikply looking for biggest paycheck and maybe get a shot at title undeservingly with the money. Crawford is making very good money fighting lower tier boxers... porter vs spence was a pbc ppv megafight unification... both were guaranteed $2mil (plus ppv %)... amir khan when he boxed crawford brought nothing but his name and weak chin to the table and got paid $5mil for it. Why would crawford jump ship to get paid less for higher risk opponents, im sure hes not afraid but obviously he would want to be paid very well to get him to go over, at the moment he can be making multi millions fighting over the hil shot fighters like khan and brook and get paid handsomely for it by arum.
