    He looks huge at the moment.
    It is unless he does it right then it can be an advantage, Brook will more than likely be up for the fight and this added motivation can be a driving force to come in tip top shape, when past it fighters are given no chance in probably their last big shot they can sometimes pull a real solid performance.

      Crawford’s resume makes me seriously yawn. Really awful tbh, given his place in boxing. It’s quite a mediocre resume he is building there. A true Top Rank produced resume. Brook adds nothing. Crawford hasn’t fought anyone worthy since Postol. Brook is slightly above that. Good B level fighter. At 33, TC should be pushing himself, going up in weights to find better challenges and bigger fights. He appears to be comfortable fighting guys who used to be good.

        It's still a good fight, although I'd rather see Crawford fight Thurman

          Nobody cares about Brook. Crawford must be starving for a legit fight. Fight even Russell. It'd be more exciting and would have more angles than faceless Brook. Let's do it!

            whats your obsession with going up in weight? people in the same weight division dont even fight each other so maybe we can concentrate on that first?

            fighting guys who used to be good the floyd...nevermind

              he's considered as top p4p fighter, so its about fighting names now and making big bucks, not necesseraly challenging himself, i guess, but anyway it would be a good name on his resume, just like Khan

                Brook is damaged goods. A win doesn't do much for crawford.

                  Brooks last good win was Porter in 2014. What has brook done since then somebody please tell me? Besides getting his face broken by GGG and spence.

                    Brook represent the type of opponent that Crawford and TR likes. Easy UK money, big enough name and the odds are for them.

                    I hope if they take that fight Brook wins. Tired of Crawford crying about opponents but yet hides behind negotiations in overpricing his value.

                      Does he meet the credentials in your eyes as a worthy challenger?
                      are there any respectable welterweights in the pbc?

                      ugas - fighting for worthless baby belt
                      danny- turns $3 mil plus ppv
                      keef - i think i might just sign the contract
                      stuntman spence - why fight you when i can fight the easy pbc fights?
                      booster porter - can't sell out a family diner but tells everyone to call al.

                      crawford - 1 undisputed, 2 rings, 2 lineals, about to be 6-0-6kos above 140

                      as in all sports, skill recognize skill. pbc fighters know exactly who crawford is.


                      Correction - Keef Flute Time Thurman asked for a $10 mil guarantee to fight Crawford. Yeah, that's not a duck.
