Kell Brook's chances tonight? Percentages

Post by Crease »

Let's have it right, gents - our boy Kell Brook is up against it tonight. He's probably going to lose (and badly) - if we are all to be honest.

No-one is looking at this as a 50-50fight, far from it.

But what chances would you give him to perform the impossible tonight, how likely is Kell to win?

This poll will be for one day only.

The Throwdown Boxing poll has it pretty much spot on

The SKY poll has it 57% Golovkin 43% Brook.

Just shows how many casual fans in the UK no sweet FA about boxing and swallow all of the SKY hype. The SKY vote will no doubt be closer by the time the broadcast starts this evening which will allow SKy and Eddie to claim this is a real genuine 50/50 fight.

Voted 31-40%

think brook iis his best opponent to date in terms of skill, footwork, ambition and grit. He is unbeaten and aside from 6 rounds against Jones has had it pretty much all his own way his career. He looks sensational at the weign in and will likely have speed advantage

GGG has great power but he doesn't switch people's lights out, to the head anyway. People feel the power and give up (Geale, Wade, Munroe Jnr, Rubio, Murray, etc) but they are all compis mentus when they do so and if they just gritted their teeth they all could have continued(pointless doing so but you get the point)

I think Brook will have that grit and land serious firepower on GGG but just fall short in a firefight as I dont think he can take too many of those GGG bodyshots

He did switch Ishida's lights out (only guy to stop him), although I agree that's he's more of a thudding puncher than a Julian Jackson KTFO artist.

iam in the 1/10 percent camp cant see how brook can stop ggg ,to throw a punch he will have to take a punch, and then i go back to the Carson Jones fight when Jones hurt brook, is brook that heavy handed ,could not drop porter Thurman did , hope kell does well but i cant see any fighter bar ward in the weight divisions about to beat ggg, maybe calum smith v ggg would be interesting if ggg steps up

I'm going to have a dabble on Brook to win worth a go I reckon.
