I think his days at WW are over. He was already big for the weight and he will surely add at least some muscle for the GGG fight. It seems to me if he loses he tries his hand at 154 against all those giants.
I think it all depends on how he fairs.. If he's brutally knocked out. He goes to 54 and takes a softy first. If he goes the distance and is out pointed he immediately seeks his money match with canelo at whatever catchweight. He doesn't have to cut as much, makes big bank for one fight and is used as the measuring stick for the GGG/ Canelo match that may never happen. The thing is he has to be good enough to beat GGG or look bad enough where canelo will fight him. Brook loses any close decision here anyway because canelos protected, but he'll be set for life and probably doesn't go out like khan to canelo because he's a slick fighter and that know how to pivot and fight off the back foot.(unless GGG changes him somehow)
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
