Very excited for this fight....personally I can't see past a GGG stoppage myself bit stranger things have happened!! Brooks quick and powerful but he's ever been hit by someone like Golovkins power... 5th ko I'm going for
9th KO Golovkin think Brook will do better with his speed but of he tires Golovkin will smack him about
sportsdictatorhq are normally pretty good. Im going GGG KO in round 7 Nice and refreshing to see 2 fighters who are genuinely nice people who don't have to trash talk to sell a fight, GGG power to be to much for Brook but think it will be a cracking fight.
It's such a massive ask that if Kel wins he should be handed the SPOTY trophy there and then as it will be more deserving than even our Olympians.
I've tried and I've tried but I've struggled to become a Brook fan. Other than beating Porter in the US, which was far from elite, convincing or dominating performance, he hasn't actually fought anybody of note. His opposition since his injury has been truly awful so his record is seriously padded. He looks in impressive shape but putting on that kind of weight and changing your physique will naturally limit your speed and reflexes, and doesn't always mean additional power. Timing equals power, not sheer size. I can't see anything but a win for GGG in the middle rounds by KO. As much as he's a monster KO artist it isn't always one punch power and is consistent accuracy that hurts, so I don't see it being a 2/3 Round KO like some are predicting. Part of me thinks this is Brook cashing out and he isn't truly fit since he was stabbed in the thigh. That's why he's fought weak opponents, that's why the Vargas deal was so difficult to make, and that's why he's taken this fight on. Purely speculating of course with no substance what so ever. However, I'd love to be proved wrong and that his record isn't padded he's just been beating the people put in front of him. We'll see.
I've seen odds of 7/1 for Brook to win. Dropped to 9/2 now so obviously getting a bit of backing. I can't see past GGG though if he fights to his full potential
If GGG was British and Brook Eastern European, there's no way you'd get 9/2 on him. I've been giving out 7/1 it's that much of a mismatch.
GGG middle rounds. Not a Brook fan if I'm honest. Looking forward to it though. And next weekend too.
Hope brook does it. He who dares...... has a chance. Although hard to see anything past a GGG win if I was a betting man I'd say GGG k.o. If brook loses I expect him to fight kahn at wembley for another big payday. This fight is a win win for brook if he wins he has done what many have gave him no chance. If he loses he has the I've jumped up 2 divisions to fight the pound for pound best. Good luck kell.
I'm surprised so many are giving him a chance. If kell wins, it would have to go down as one of the biggest wins in British boxing history, wouldn't it?
It would mate yes. Although Brook is such an unknown it would only be seen that way over here, and as much as GGG is becoming more and more of an elite fighter each fight his own CV is lacking any real big tests. This fight hasn't gone down well in the US at all. The Sky experts are trying to sell a PPV though don't forget. We've also got the biased British media giving us their verdict. The reality is there's absolutely no way that he should even make the fight close after the first four rounds. If he was to win it's nothing short of phenomenal.
Big fan of Brook. He's a superb welterweight & could do well at light middleweight but this is too much of a jump in weight. Golovkin's the biggest puncher in the sport, tough fighters like Murray, Geale & Stevens can't believe the power he generates. His jabs are like hooks. Matt Macklin's a tough fighter who was competitive with quality middleweights but he was literally running around the ring when he felt the power of Golovkin's jab. To put it into perspective there were a few rumours Mayweather might face the same jump in weight & virtually all the comments were he's got no chance & Golovkin would stop him & he's the best boxer this century. That tells you the kind of task Brook's taking on here. If he makes it to the half way stage I'd be amazed. Golovkin inside 4 rounds for me. And ignore everything Johnny Nelson & Sky tell you, it's not a competitive fight.
