Have you gone gay now bro or you gonna stay in the closet and get stabbed while approaching men in shady Spanish expat towns? (sorry Kell)Comment

I don't think this is a cash out. I think Brook thinks he will win and is going to try his hardest to win and trained his hardest to win.But he will be drained and he has not looked good in any fight since being KOed by Spence. I think Crawford is too good for him and will stop him in one of the late rounds.Comment

Just to inject some objectivity to this thread: I don't think Brook is even a bad style matchup for Crawford. People mistake Brook's timing, precision and fluid combos for great fundamentals but he makes plenty of mistakes even in his prime
-Likes to lunge in and falls in to his punches, which is why he ties up very often (watch how many times he fell short and got caught in Zerafa fight)
-Moves back straight lines
-NO inside game (ties up and uses his size to bully)
-No real defense aside from good intuitive head movement and counters
-Has problems with guys with lateral movement and range
-Gas tank
Crawford is good at all these things. Also, his game changing punches are almost ALWAYS precise counters off people who fall short with their punches (Indongo, Horn, Postol, Gamboa... list goes on). Mean machine fight was an abberation IMO.
Take all that with the subjective stuff like he hasn't made 147 in 3 years, damaged goods, questionable drive, no coach and I see a likely ref or corner stoppage loss for KellComment

I'm not expecting much out of Brook at all
Of course the Crawford fans are going to make out Brook is still near the peak of his powers but I think he's shot.Comment

I think Brook, to his credit, has always shown he wants the big fights and wants to challenge himself.Comment

Did ya see my thread where I talk about this cute little 16 yr old Mexican girl I have a crush on? That one got deleted too. Again, idk why anyone would want to delete these absolute gems of threads. Better than most things we get in the lounge.Comment

Yeah blatant cash out...First let me say ive been a fan of Brook for close to a decade now, was one of only a few on here that picked him to beat Porter as the big dog. But EVERYTHING here points to a cash out, without even getting into whether hes shot, washed or not
Hes not with his trainer, Hearn is not even promoting this, its not on Sky, (Premier sports??) due to money. everything about this is about squeezing every penny for Kell, hence no trainer, Does anyone even know whos in his corner? im a boxing nerd & ive never even seen or heard of any of them before.
But he looks ripped doe! yeah this sceams of people never actually having seen him before....he is shredded in literally every single fight he has ever had?
His ****ing face looks like he hasnt had a glass of water in a week, he looks very gaunt & drawn in.
Listen i really hope im wrong but Kell starved himself for his last payday, he hasnt wanted to box for years now, and is only still around because Eddie has dangled the Khan carrot payday infront of his face for years and years.
Best case scenerio is im completely wrong and Brook is really up for this, winds back the years and we get a FOTY contender, but the more likely scenerio is, we see a few glimpses of Brooks former self, then Bud goes through the gears as he does. Brooks corner pulls him out/quits/gets stopped. and he cashes his final big payday and retires.
People are gullible though.
Hopefully he takes his 2 million retirement package and retires cause Brook is washed man, he really shouldn’t be fighting anymore IMO.Comment
