Fair play to brook

[Autobarn]

Brook's taking the fight showed up a lot of the middleweights for what they are (especially Eubank). His performance was gallant and very entertaining. I thought he looked like he was riding out another storm and waiting for his chance to throw again, but may change my view on the repeat. I wish Canelo would come scrap with GGG as I think he could do very well. Sadly I think he will remain quivering at light-middle.

Poor old Golovkin. All dressed up and nowhere to go.

i think a welterweight moving up, now that it's happened, might embarrass Golovkin's 160 peers into fighting him.

I get the impression that some people just can't fault Golovkin no matter what.

I saw for my own eyes that on a few occasions he was aggressively cutting the ring off, letting his hands go, then gets tagged with a check hook or short shot and then takes steps backwards and covers up, Brook coming forwards and getting shots of his own off.
That's not a blatant disrespect for your opponent's power, standing in the pocket and firing off whether you take shots or not - that's being tagged and feeling it in a back-and-forth fight.
Yeah, overall he may have thought Brook couldn't KO him, and probably rightly, but I believe/agree with Brook when he says he though GGG was buzzed by him and affected. He was marked up and looked uncomfortable to me. I think his extreme pace at the start of the third was a direct result of having been hurt in the second and probably increased his urgency to get the likely KO of his own.
It's subjective of course, a matter of opinion, but he didn't just walk through Brook's shots like people are suggesting. They exchanged, GGG's shots were heavier, Brook got injured and then GGG got on top. Through the second and third, aside from the eye socket, I genuinely felt that they both felt each other's shots when they landed.
I don't think GGG wilfully dismissed Brook's punches at all as you're making out, and I'm not giving him the credit you are as if he decided to take those shots as I don't think he did.

reminds me a bit of Chavez. He could look amazing or he could look slow, but his punches always seemed to damage the opponent, softening them up for the KO or the TKO.

The crap boxers talk though: Brook "I was just settling into the fight".

No mate after round three you were finding it tougher and tougher and tougher. That's coming apart not settling in.

I'd like to see you speak coherently after a fight with GGG

Some people...

GGG wouldn't fight me.
