Is Brook a "quitter?"

[erics44]

Brook was with Warren for years before most of you had apparently ever heard of him. Warren got rid of him, publicly stating he'd never be a champion (Brook dumped him for Eddie).

So no he wouldn't have fought Golovkin as he'd still be in leisure centres defending an international title.

To be fair to Warren Brook turned down several big fights Warren offered him including a world title shot. Can't remember who it was going to be against. Brook was off the rails when he was with Warren and maybe only got with the programme a bit when he signed with Hearn. The last year or so with Warren was when Frank was without TV dates so Brook had a good reason for leaving but he had plenty chances previous to that and never took them.

To be fair that's Warren's side of the story. Brook's mob claim they were constantly offered false promises which led to them dumping him. Regardless, he was constantly accused of never stepping up (with Frank and Eddie), now he's lost at the highest level his handlers are being accused of overmatching him. Fighter and promoter (whoever it is) can't win either way.

i hear what you are saying, he doesn't step up its brooks fault, he steps up and loses and its his promoters fault, but I think theres more too it than that

when he wasn't stepping up he was a novice who hadn't made any money

during his time with hearn he had been built into a genuine world champion, ok since winning the title he hadn't really done anything but he was still a name and could have filled bramall lane before the golovkin fight against a lesser opponent than spence or golovkin

So he was in a fantastic position, could have made money and continued his career in a number of ways, yet they chose to move up 2 divisions and fight a beast
