    Brook could have gone down as the way better fighter than Khan but that won't happen now because Brook only fought bums, beat porter then quit Vs GGG and Spence.

    Khan trolled Brook pretty bad and ruined his career without ever fighting him
    yes

    Brook didn’t develop fully. As a young man he should have fought more brothas and Mexicans.

    Brook stuck to weaker opponents Instead of realizing his full potential

    By the time Brook did fight the elite of the elite his skills weren’t fully developed and he didn’t finish those fights

      There really was something special about him that he never expressed and exploited to the max..
      Kell’s offense was the closest thing to Floyd’s attacks in the welterweight division

      I like Lara strikes too whenever he decides to throw punches

        Brook is overrated fighter who is even wasting his past prime years fighting irrelevant fighters once a year.

        I think he is not very serious in sport.

          The Kell Brook that fought GGG would have kod Dominic Wade inside 1 round . Change my mind .

            He wasted 2013-2019 chasing his halo fight with Khan.

            Khan ALWAYS had other options and was never desperate for that big domestic because he had already made enough coin since turning professional.

            Mark my words, the Brook fight for Khan is a LAST RESORT when all other options have been exhausted.

            Brook should have gotten the message years ago and moved on. As soon as he struggled making 147lbs in a healthy manner (and without the Ingle juice) he should have gone upto 154lbs. Why did he spend so long chasing a 135/140lb fighter in Khan (before Khan even stepped upto Welterweight)?

            Great talent and natural ring IQ but he had poor management and career guidance around him. The working class people of that area of Sheffield are pretty dumb to be honest, I've been visiting since the early 1990s to know what they are like.

            Hopefully he sends his kids to a good school and they can overcome their natural ******ity inherited from Kell.

              Khan had better career, has better wins and was more successful making money while being terribly stopped by elite opponents.

                Idk about the greatest ww but he definitely was good. Getting stabbed definitely messed up his career. Also the nonsensical rios negotiations

                      Prime Brook arguably lost to Carson Jones, I thought he got a gift.
                      Porter fight was a hug fest not a schooling.
