    Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: Brook Won't Quit Against Crawford The Way Khan Quit

    Terence Crawford would be a sizeable favorite to beat Kell Brook if they were to fight for Crawford's WBO welterweight title. Bob Arum, Crawford's promoter, still believes Brook would give the undefeated Crawford a tougher fight than the last British boxer Crawford fought.

    Arums right; Brook won't quit like Khan, he'll find another way to quit.

      Brook is more formidable than Khan.

        Why is Brook a more viable opponent than Porter? Everyone knows Brook will kill himself to make 147! This will be worse than ODLH trying to return to 147 to fight Pacquiao! Crawford vs. Porter, Crawford vs. Custio Clayton, or Crawford vs. Boots Ennis! Choose one!

          Brook won’t quit but he’ll still take a beating

            "he's capable of giving Terence a good fight"


            That's where the problem lies.... I'd much prefer to watch a fight (ESP if I'm paying for it) where it could go either way.


            I'm more inclined to think Kel would be delighted to last a second longer than khan did just to carry on his bashing...

              I love it. They're getting ready to make Kell Brook seem like a good/viable opponent for Crawford. This matchup sucks. I'm not defending PBC, but this makes all the blame put on Spence/PBC irrelevant. Mean Machine rematch would be 10x better than Brook.

                Brook has an educated right hand. He hit Spence with it several times. He also has had a long break from his back to back tough fights. He is a much better boxer than Porter. Hits harder too. The only question is can he make 147 and not be spent. I don't think he can.

                  He’s definitely tougher than Khan. Brook played himself by jumping in the ring with Golovkin.... Golovkin was simply too big and tough.

                  All Crawford has to do is sharpshoot for those two fractured orbital bones and Brook should wilt.

                  Imo, Brook woulda been a major player in the welterweight division if he wasn’t so brave for his own good.

                  Brook definitely OVERestimated the ”toughness” aspect of his game. Brook is tough, but he ain’t THAT tough. That’s why we have weight divisions...

                    This is not a gimme fight for Crawford. Brook might win this fight. Brook is no tomato can. He was beating Spence before the stoppage with a busted eye socket. I wouldn't be surprised if Brook takes Crawford's "0"
