Credit to Brook for his courage in taking the fight and making a fight of it. But when you get stopped inside 5 rounds it is hard to draw too many positives.

When you stop your opponent you hand down your own judgement and the judges just become 3 more spectators.

GGG mopped Kell up. Kell won round 2 for his 30 second flurry of punches. From round 3 he was rag dolled around the ring. He had balls and it was a good idea for his corner to stop it when they did, that saves the image of brook. His post fight speech was denial in action though. GGG is the real deal. A lot of Kells punches were landing on his gloves or the forehead aside from a couple of uppercuts, a couple of lefts and rights.

Judges didn't even have him up either....even with Brook being the home-fighter it was officially an even fight and he was already busted up and broken down after 4.5 rounds.

Can I have a link for that? I was wondering whether it was true after Hearn had said Brook was ahead on the scorecards.

I don't doubt that Eddie thinks one judge having Brook up makes it perfectly honest to say he's ahead...

Thanks

Two judges gave Brook the first

I've seen rumors that Casimero-Edwards was level at the time of the stoppage too, although no concrete proof for that.

... and they gave UD to Haskins.

I only seen the last 5 round's and Haskins did'nt win one again terrible commentary these commentator's seemed like they were worried about what Haskins corner would think of them if they spoke the truth
