GGG v Kell Brook 10th September - confirmed

[GAME]

I think Kells got a chance


I really didn't think Khan had a chance but I think Kell has


hes a very good fighter, if it wasn't for the weight difference id be screaming about his chances a lot louder

Kell has a few advantages in his favour. He is the quicker man with his hands. He has quicker feet. He has home advantage and he is abit younger.
It would be nice to see how he would perform at 160 vs a fringe top 10 guy like a Curtis Stevens to see how he adjusts to the weight but he’s going straight in with a monster so if he loses it will be difficulty to tell if weight was to blame or if he was just out his league. I expect it will be a mix of the two.

I reckon Eubank may have done better/survived longer but only because he is natural middleweight. Kell is the better fighter P4P but When I think back to his jelly legs vs sentence/gassing vs Jones and mauling with Porter it’s a big ask to jump up two weights and perform well vs Golovkin. Plus he is injury prone too so everything would have to fall in place like it didn’t for Calzaghe who had a similarly disappointing couple of years before the hype machine that was Jeff Lacy came across the Atlantic to challenge him. That made Joe and if Brook won this he’d be the hottest commodity in boxing.

yeah the Carson Jones fight was a shocker, I don't remember the jelly legs but he did get very tired very quickly

I meant to say the jelly legs vs senchenko ( not sentence, damn you auto correct)

That's the only time I've seen brook wobbled and he came back to stop senchenko shortly after. If You've not seen it it's worth a watch just to see how kell reacts to getting hit.
