Comments Thread For: Crawford: Fighting Golovkin Was Brave Of Brook, But ****** Of Him At Same Time

[DeeMoney]

Brook is all of that and a bag of chips now, but once Bud rolls him, he will become a "bum" in the minds of the Crawford haters.

I like Bud alright, but Brook aint all that & a bag of chips anymore. Maybe 5-6 years ago he was, after he beat porter I thought it would be cool for him to match up with one of the big name old guards (Manny or Bradley) or even better go at it with the top young guns in the division (mostly Thurman at the time but there were others).

Instead he took a couple victory laps and cashed out against GGG. Now, he's got talent sure but he's busted up and getting old.

There's been a late flurry of justifications of how this can be a competitive and meaningful fight.

But it's nothing like that.

Crawford wants to fight Spence. Spence doesn't want to fight Crawford.

So Crawford is going to show Spence that he's better than him by stopping Brook earlier and more emphatically than Spence did.

End of Story.

Brook turned down a Bradley fight. He had a chance to fight him for the WBO title but chose to fight some bum in a IBF eliminator to become a mandatory

he should have fought bums his whole career like crawford has

True indeed, haters always create some type of deficiency to discredit capable opponents in order to bolster their opinionated bias egos. If Crawfords punching power isnt on par with affecting Brooks two busted sockets(?) - haters arent gonna care anyway.

You can best believe Brook will be labeled a "BUM" anyway you slice it......Hopefully Brook aint here just to pick up a check...lol...it isn't something too far fetched to consider....he "looks" (the weigh in) damn good though....

Didn’t look ****** early on. Brook teed off on Golovkin early on. Most MWs would have been hurt badly but Golovkin, love him or hate him, has one of the best chins ever. I thought it was a decent gamble. It was the Spence fight, without enough training down and healing time that was the greater error.

Is that the store brand bag of chips?...

Actually, Utz.

[Miamimike]

Duckford is correct but he better be ready tonight. This fight means the world to Brook. There very well could be a upset 🥊

Could be .... but wasn’t. Kell was totally outclassed

[Miamimike]

Absolutely!

How can anyone hate 3G? He’s a classy guy and a great fighter. Getting older now I think and lost some of his Mojo
