I dunno. Brook had never been past 7 rounds before and he was in with a guy that had never been stopped despite having shared a ring with some very decent fighters. That he paced himself was smart in my mind.yid14 wrote:Brook reminds me of Jonny Nelson - must be a sheffield thing! He does what it takes to win and then for the last 2-3 rounds turns it on, boring though. He should try harder earlier, gave it the big one about doing it for his Sheffield fans and let's face it, didn't really put on a show.
Although I'm still not completely sold on Brook. I don't see him as this nailed on star that others do. Good talent, good power and very capable of beating some big names, but I can also see the wheels coming off in spectacular fashion.
