Brooks opposition has been rank but I wouldn't say he was a boring fighter at all. Good reflexes, stylish, quick, powerful, ramrod jab. Each to their own but I enjoy watching Brook. I just wish it was against better opponents.Horse wrote:No.los2 wrote:mayweather has said that kell is the man everyones avoiding.............werent u made to look a cock when u said kell wouldnt fight porter.................................

Competitive fights are what entertains me the most and Brook is a big failure when it comes to delivering those.Stuarty30 wrote:Brooks opposition has been rank but I wouldn't say he was a boring fighter at all.

I'm a fan but I'm finding it harder to stick up for him because of the tripe he's been fighting! If he doesn't fight someone big in the summer I'm not classing myself as fan any longer until he does. Shame because he has bundles of talent. Maybe a bit mentally week.Horse wrote:Competitive fights are what entertains me the most and Brook is a big failure when it comes to delivering those.Stuarty30 wrote:Brooks opposition has been rank but I wouldn't say he was a boring fighter at all.

Brook is a joke.
His lack of competitive fights and apparent lack of ambition are frustrating, but I don't think any pro boxer should be described as a 'joke', particularly not one of the top 3 P4P current British fighters.Horse wrote:Competitive fights are what entertains me the most and Brook is a big failure when it comes to delivering those.Stuarty30 wrote:Brooks opposition has been rank but I wouldn't say he was a boring fighter at all.

After he beat Porter I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt because that was a good world class win.Stuarty30 wrote:I'm a fan but I'm finding it harder to stick up for him because of the tripe he's been fighting!

Do you think he would/wouldve be/been better to vacate than fight the admittedly poor mandatories?Horse wrote:After he beat Porter I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt because that was a good world class win.Stuarty30 wrote:I'm a fan but I'm finding it harder to stick up for him because of the tripe he's been fighting!

Unfortunately, he's done nothing with that win.
Brook = Mental midget? Quite possibly.
No, I don't think dropping the IBF title would have helped much.handsofstone wrote:Do you think he would/wouldve be/been better to vacate than fight the admittedly poor mandatories?
I give the Gavin fight a pass because it was only 8 weeks after Dan and was seen at the time as a keep busy fight after the inactivity with the stabbing,obviously in hindsight with the Chaves fight falling through then being fed Bizier by the IBF,the Dan/Gavin/Bizier combination is sub standard and a healthy comedown from the big win in America against Porter
I think its a mixture of injuries,bad luck,the frigging IBF's god awful mandates but "mental midget"?
I think your tripping on this one Horse
I mentioned injuries,bad luck and bad mandates,i forgot to add bad advice,refusing the Bradley fight years ago was wrong tooHorse wrote:No, I don't think dropping the IBF title would have helped much.handsofstone wrote:Do you think he would/wouldve be/been better to vacate than fight the admittedly poor mandatories?

Has Hearn said anything to the IBF about their awful mandatories?
I reckon both Hearn and Brook are happy about having that excuse to fight woeful opposition.
The past doesn't matter much as he's still pretty young.handsofstone wrote:I mentioned injuries,bad luck and bad mandates,i forgot to add bad advice,refusing the Bradley fight years ago was wrong too
