I feel bad for brook because this is likely his last big fight. He fought guys that others avoided. He faced an undefeated porter that was avoided, an undefeated ggg that was blatantly ducked by Canelo, Eubank Jr and jacobs at the time, a spence that was avoided by Thurman and Garcia and now Crawford that has been avoided by every pbc fighter and pac for yrs. Hopefully he's at least getting paid well.

You said it right there. Brook dared to be great but he thought he was better then he was. In that sense he lacked a good manager to guide him with matchmaking because lets face it, the promoter has conflicting interests and so too does the trainer unless he is a father-like figure.
After Brook fought Porter he should have tried to get a fight with Thurman, Garcia or especially Broner who was still considered good at that time.
Fighting a very-near-prime Golovkin was ludicrous. I ridiculed Eubank at the time but it is Eubank who is still considered relevant at this time.
The old-school rap track 'SHOOK-ONES' by MOBB DEEP, played in the background ; a fitting song for the terror that was unmistakable in Kell Brook's eyes and stuttering speech.

one man's "terror" is another man's "unflinching stare"
