Well if this is true then he definitely has more cohones than every top MW.

Your thoughts, is he just blowing smoke or will he really do this??

If he is serious then yes he has massive cojones, but not much intelligence. There is courageous and then there is stupidity. This is stupidity. Stay at welterweight and try to clean out that division. Facing Triple G will simply speed up your retirement.

Would I be brave if I challenged Mike Tyson to fight me at 155lbs? Pretty similar comment here. GGG would have done it for Floyd but Brook, you are no Floyd.

I'm not sure where this cat was getting these quotes but everything that i read from Brook yesterday was pretty respectful regarding Khan/Canelo. He did say that he thought Canelo would win but he congratulated Khan for taking the fight and didn't blame him for it as it was a great opportunity. Brook even wished Khan good luck. Pretty classy actually. Not sure where this guys getting his stuff.

Why doesn't Brook fight the winner of Porter and Thurman?? Seems logical no? But would Thurman fight him? After all he is very careful; with his fights and really has not been beating anyone of note.

Golovkin doesn't go down to 155 for Brook, and Brook knows that. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so "brave".

How's Thurman particularly careful with his fights? He's certainly not more careful than Brook and his team.

I don't Brook and Hearn would take the fight even if he did.

Hearn mentioned this in an ifl interview the other day but didn't seem to be entertaining the idea, and nor should he.
This isn't about GGG, it's about Khan, more specifically, it's about Brook's obsession with Khan and it's getting a bit uncomfortable now.
Brook needs to get a good name under his belt soon or he will lose any shred of credibility he has left.
At welterweight there are plenty: Bradley, Thurman, Garcia, he could even try to drag Maidana out of semi-retirement. But instead all he and his team ever talk about is Khan.
Johnny Nelson was right (for once) Brook should go in another direction and not mention Khan's name.

His last win is against Luis Collazo no? That is all you need right there.

And he's fighting Porter in his next fight and beat Chaves and Guerrero in past fights aswell.

These are all limited boxers. I am not saying that Thurman avoids good boxers. Quite possible is that they are avoiding him.

You massively overrate Sammy Vasquez he hasn't beat 1 good fighter in his career and doesn't do anything special.

Yeah its hardly a great resume considering he's with Haymon who has most of the top WW's.

Very hard for this guy to do this. He should clear his levels first...

If he wants Golovkin, he should either go up to MW & prove he is worthy, or get his team to offer GGG so much money that Golovkin could not turn him down for his next voluntary.

It seems as if Brook is trying to match Amir Khan all the time & there really isn't any need for him to do that.

Khan is not even an established welterweight & is more a part-time fighter these days.

OK, I get that he would want a all British showdown with Khan & all that, but if Khan isn't interested, Brook should have just moved on; the welterweight division is full of stars that he could & should be targeting.

Why does everybody keep posting about this like Brook has ben calling him out for months and keeps mentioning his name? He said to his promoter not the whole world, he hasn't been shouting his mouth off, he was just annoyed at the time and in the heat of the moment said something stupid privately to his promoter.

You lot are like a woman who keeps brining up something stupid you said or did 5 years ago. Man up girls.

Isn't ironic you should be calling people girls when you're the one whining like you're on the menopause?
