I'm not buying it, Brook. Nice Try though.

[keithmoonhangover]

Kiefy? Did you just call him Kiefy? Dude, come out from under his ball bag for some fresh air. Maybe if you paid a little more attention to you content instead of nuthugging, i'd know who the heck you are too.

This is funny. It's like the losers in high school sticking up for one another when one of the popular kids picks on one of their own. Good for you guys. You should stick together because there's power in groups. Not in the case however but someday it may come in handy.

The Filthy Brits have absolutely nothing honest or brilliant to add in this forum because they let their blind patriotism lead every discussion. If you were all honest and lead more with your brain and not your ill advised hearts, you would be upset that Eubank Jr chickened out against GGG and not excited about the beatdown of a fight that Brook/GGG will be if it ever happens. I don't think it will happen but if it ever does, it's going to be a beatdown.

Evern Brook's fellow boxers are coming out telling him to get out of this fight. Look at Broner's recent tweets. It has already started and it's a matter of time before Brook bows out and does the smart thing.

Kiefy must be so proud of you man. Get your own nuggets dude and stop hanging on others.

Are you taking the bet? Just simply answer YES or NO.

No thanks. Maybe you need to head over to Patty Power to get your gambling fix in because you may have a problem. Just an opinion I have that may or may not come true Hoss. I hope that i'm wrong because i'd LOVE to see Brook get pounded. I'm not going to be rooting against a big fight happening. That's like taking the under in a football game and sitting there hoping that no one scores. What fun is that?

But don't worry, I'll be the first one to congratulate you if i'm wrong and I'll admit it.

So, in short, you don't believe in what you posted at the start of this thread. If you did, you would bet on it, but you don't. You are full of sh1t.

[Kalan]

GGG and his team really fell for it this time. GGG and his handlers have to be a little more careful about who they let ride on their coattails to make headlines. I'm saying this because there's ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that Kell Brook follows through with this fight. How they can't see that is beyond me.

Am I supposed to believe that one of the biggest chicken poo champions in Boxing, who most recently ran from a fight with the little Diego Chaves, is going to show up on fight night against the best and baddest fighter in the world, perhaps ever? The same guy that has been calling people out left and right for 2 years and never fighting anyone worth a lick? The guy that just loves to give soundbites to get in the news? That guy?

If you all are smart, you won't fall for this too. So i don't mean to piss in the Brit's mushy pea's but THIS FIGHT IS NOT HAPPENING, i don't care what it signed. In this era of Boxing Postponements, this will just be another one and Brook will find a way out of this one. Trust me, move on and get this one out of your mind. IT WON'T HAPPEN. I PROMISE YOU.

Caldo you're a moron... Brook WANTS this fight dude. He's a great fighter... Did Emile Griffith want to fight Dick Tiger??? YES!!!... Did Jose Napoles want to fight Carlos Monzon??? YES!!!... Did Ray Robinson want to fight Jake LaMotta??? YES... Did Roberto Duran (fought 119 to 135 for 64 fights) want to fight Marvin Hagler??? ... Did Ray Leonard want to fight Marvin Hager??? ... YES!!! TO ALL OF THAT ... Did Floyd Mayweather want to fight Gennady Golovkin??? ... Oops!!! I guess he didn't... Floyd didn't want to fight Kell Brook either. Hmmm...Andre Berto was more his speed... Brook is not afraid to lose and this fight will test his limits.. He'll probably get knocked out, but for him it's worth the risk.. He won't go out like Khan.

Great fighters step up to the plate. Guys who want to keep their "O" don't... Brook is no small Welterweight like Napoles.. He'll be 165-168 on the night.

The guy that calls Brook one of the greats and puts him in the same company as Sugar Ray Leonard, Duran and SRR says that I'M THE MORON? Hilarious. You Brits are in such a rush to anoint the "great" tag to your boxers. Newsflash for you, Kell Brook is not great. If he gets stabbed again and had to retire tomorrow, he wouldn't even be considered for Boxing's HOF. He may get free pints for life in your bars but that's about it. Brook barely beat Porter and that's the only noteworthy win on his line card.

Now that i cleared that ridiculousness up, let's get serious here. Brook ducked Diego Chaves recently after signing on to fight him and then opted instead to fight some taxi driver named Bizier. What in the world makes you think that he won't do the same thing once he realizes that he just signed his death warrant against GGG? Eubank Jr would have been a better fight but he ran chicken shiit.

I really do hope that Brook grows a sack and climbs through the ropes come fight night because i'm going to enjoy seeing his head come off. I enjoy when these overrated Brits finally get in the ring with someone legitimate and get their bells rung. But like i said, anyone excited about this fight is wasting their time. It's not happening

Caldo2025... YOU are one stupid A-hole... I'm no Brit and Brook didn't duck Diego Chaves... Keith Thurman knocked Chaves out cold. That bum is nothing.. If Brook get stabbed again??? You stupid jerk. If Brook had gotten the fights he deserved he'd already have beaten Mayweather, Pacquiao, and possibly Keith Thurman by now. I don't see any of those guys challenging the best fighter in the world, Triple-G... Floyd wouldn't fight Golovkin even though Gennady offered to come down to 154... Brook is fighting him at a full 160... It'll be a breathtaking ride if he can make 12... You'll be watching and so will the world.

[Counter-puncher]

the world will be chasing pokemons and watching UFC

So with your rational, you place a bet on every opinion you come up with? I don't think he's going to follow through with the fight. That's what I believe will happen, not predict. I could be wrong and hope I am. Why don't you try getting over it now. This is beyond getting old and i'm sure no one is reading it.

Classy. It's always great to have a mature discussion with someone like yourself. Stupid A-hole? Awesome.

So tell me how Brook DIDN'T duck Chaves and don't use the stabbing nonsense because that was well before Brook signed the contract to fight Chaves. You obviously don't know much about boxing if you think a fighter like Chaves is a bum. I had him beating Timothy Bradley in that fight and felt that he got robbed so is Bradley a bum? Chaves is a full night for any WW and Brook didn't want to take the risk, so he cancelled and fought a taxi driver who no one's heard of. Is that honorable? Is that what you call a good champion?

How can anyone be so high on Brook? Who has he fought? He beat Porter. Good for him, it was a great fight. But who the heck else has he beaten and why does he think he's on the level of the elite fighters? You all must be very easy to please.

[dberry]

Buddy, you need to find a girlfriend or something. THIS really shouldn't be this important to you man. It's a message board buddy. Let's put some things in perspective here. You want me to bet against a big fight happening? yeah, that sounds like a lot of fun. I even hope i'm wrong so what's the problem? Go to work or for a walk in the park or something. You need to power down for a bit Dberry. It's not that big a deal ok?

Of course I'm going to push for a slice of these bets, mate, I can't get even odds on stuff like this (I've got s bet for $500 US with bnovelist for GGG to win, simply win, against Brook). Any how, I'm a former am. and pro kickboxer and former am. and pro boxer with a long time in the caper including having a fair bit to do with a quite a few international fighters, I'm not a pom and I've got a missus, sooooo.......you've had me pegged wrong.

If any of those boasts above are true then I'll admit that i'm impressed. I've never bet a dime on Boxing because I'm just interested in seeing something epic every time i turn it on. Side action would change the way I observer the game. I know that this bet is not about who wins but whether Brook has balls or not. Again, I have no interest in rooting against a PPV fight happening.

I absolutely loved Brook after the Porter fight. That was an amazing victory and he got me excited about his future fights but he's really disappointed me since. Tons of talk and 3 lousy fights against nobodies. I was excited for the fight against Chaves because he's very a very underrated boxer in my opinion. I remember thinking that it was a bad move by Brook. Too much risk and not enough to gain in fighting the kid. But he signed the contract...then he backed out after the kid put the work in for the bout. It's a BS move to tie up a boxer like that and disappoint fans that could have been treated to a fun bout. After all that yapping in the media calling out people, he duck out of he only interesting fight he had since winning the belt.

So that's where my head is with not believing in Brook. IF he does get in there with GGG, I don't care if he gets knocked out in 8 seconds, he has my respect. You won't hear me bitching in here anymore about Brook. That i will promise. That will take huge balls.

You know, lad, you're alright, you can admit when you're wrong and can own your mistakes, I'd hire you on that alone (if you were a carpenter living in Australia), the thing with this is that Brook is a Hearn fighter, he had already steeled himself for a Golovkin showdown, he is promised an absurd amount of money and he is a popular British fighter, I'd fight Kovalev in Russia twenty five times for that money, and he does have a, albeit very small, chance of winning.
I reckon Brook takes it for million pounds as he has been flogged senseless for nothing many times, as we all have. (They weren't boasts, that's just who I am, I lost both pro boxing fights, first one @40yo due to a cut, sucking on split decision to the promoter).

Unfortunately, I've been wrong so many times in here that people would be rich if they bet against me every time. I read Brook's response to the fight and his reasoning being that he has nothing to lose (maintains his belt either way) but I still don't get it. The move seems so reckless to me. But people did say the same thing when Ray beat Marvin right? And this fight is less than 2 months away. Brook doesn't even have the time to get acclimated to a MW's punch in that time. You can probably attest better than us all about the difference in punching power up and down these divisions. If it's not cancelled by the end of August then i'll eat crow (AGAIN).

I have the utmost respect for boxers. I wrestled collegiately and above and decided one day to try boxing. I thought i was in excellent shape. I hit the gym and lasted a week. I had NO IDEA how difficult it was. I'd wrestle 7 minutes and be fresh as a daisy after. I couldn't hit the heavy bag for a minute straight without stopping. It amazed me and I don't think people realize how hard it really is. So props to you and all these boxers because I wasn't man enough to do it. I can admit that.

The truth is, it is a bit of a lunatic move, I mean, moving up two weights to take on the best middleweight out there, who also happens to be a total machine. chances are, Kell get's completely dismantled, but, I think he genuinely sees it as an opportunity, particularly to make money.

[Counter-puncher]

Brook isn't particularly popular in the UK, D, thats part of his problem in securing fights, he brings very few fans and very little money, he isn't known outside of hardcore boxing fans and maybe half the casual fans

indeed, and the other answer is yes, those buying tickets are more likely to be going to watch Golovkin than they are Brook, IMO, certainly anyone on the brit forum who has said they are going, they are going so they don't miss the chance to see GGG

GGG and his team really fell for it this time. GGG and his handlers have to be a little more careful about who they let ride on their coattails to make headlines. I'm saying this because there's ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that Kell Brook follows through with this fight. How they can't see that is beyond me.

Am I supposed to believe that one of the biggest chicken poo champions in Boxing, who most recently ran from a fight with the little Diego Chaves, is going to show up on fight night against the best and baddest fighter in the world, perhaps ever? The same guy that has been calling people out left and right for 2 years and never fighting anyone worth a lick? The guy that just loves to give soundbites to get in the news? That guy?

If you all are smart, you won't fall for this too. So i don't mean to piss in the Brit's mushy pea's but THIS FIGHT IS NOT HAPPENING, i don't care what it signed. In this era of Boxing Postponements, this will just be another one and Brook will find a way out of this one. Trust me, move on and get this one out of your mind. IT WON'T HAPPEN. I PROMISE YOU.

Just out of curiosity, did you believe that Eubank Jr was going to sign the fight?

[boxing_rocks]

Most of them are casual fans who want to see their countryman fight some monster.

[Counter-puncher]

Most of them are casual fans who want to see their countryman fight some monster.

yup. which means its Golovkin himself thats the factor selling the tickets. Brook vs a non-monster doesn't sell, unless the crowds for the Jo Jo Dan fight were much bigger than they looked

I must admit I did - at first I laughed it off as a load of old arsebollocks, and then as the fight drew nearer, I became convinced it must be for real. Shame on me. I now think that the Eubanks never had any intention of going ahead with it.

I really did. I watched Eubank Jr's last fight and I was pumped when he called out GGG after the fight. Then a week later ESPN reported that he or his Dad chickened out when it was their turn to sign. Sad.

[GPTM1403]

What Brook could or couldn't sell before may become irrelevant after this fight - if he does well he will have the platform. Then we'll find out who is interested but didn't fancy the bucks to risk ratio of fighting him and who just didn't fancy fighting him. I suspect most of the big welter names just didn't like the money for facing a guy who is a risk. Might be a few more fights there or LM for him after this.

And what are you gonna look and sound like if it does??

I may be a bit of a dick but I have no problem admitting that i was wrong and anyone that has dealt with me here can at least give me that. I've honestly been wrong more than right but I really don't think that i was waving a red flag at a bull for this OP. Brook has a history of not following through on fights he's signed up for. I don't think that i'm being unfair by drawing attention to the possibility here. Especially given the boxing climate lately where boxers are cancelling and postponing fights at an alarming rate.

Fair enough! But I think you'll have egg on your face this time... Or should I say again...

[uppercutfromhades]

Gutsy from Brook who really has only fought 1 serious fighter. He is unlikely to beat GGG but even a credible showing will boost his stock.
