Comments Thread For: Brook: When I Dethrone Crawford - It'll Be Among Biggest Wins For British Boxing!

He needs to get rid of that lump on top his shoulder looks nasty, should make weight easy with that gone lol. Dont photographers edit their pics any more.

Brook could've been one of the top welterweight. Too bad he accepted the GGG fight, it went all downhill from their.

They dont have what it takes to be great, being able to fight is only one requirement there is lots more and most dont have it.

Watched an interview with a Kentucky Derby trainer and he said out of 30k yearlings every year only 2 make the Derby grade, its obviously not easy to be a consistent top performer.

When you beat Bud pigs will have wings, as they say

You're right, Brook won't beat any of the top 5 welters; apart from that decision win over a pre-peak Porter he never has.
He didn't really "deserve better" either as he always choose the easy route prior to Golovkin. Which was a fight he took because he realised it was the only fight out there where could earn the kind of money he was desperate for as, even then, he had one eye (maybe the one Golovkin broke?) on retirement. Brook kills himself - and as an ingle fighter you've got to wonder about that - to make 147 and pre-weight cut there isn't actually much size difference between him and GGG.
I envisage a fight with Crawford looking very much like the Spence fight.

He seems like a nice enough fella who had skills. I kept waiting for his career to make some moves.

Can't really say how his prime would have gone if he fought anyone of note. Guys like Broner get all the chances while guys like KB get scraps.

[BodyBagz]

He wanted it at Welterweight and Brook said light middleweight thats the reason fight did not take place.

Khan plays games. He claimed KB wasn't known enough.

I will be placing a wager on Brook.

Financially yeah thats good for him but I mean in terms of resume he hasnt really beaten anyone since porter in 2014.
