Clemdog 39,389 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Looked out his nut there. Honestly fair play to Brook. GGG is a fucking hero. But Brook showed balls taking the fight and going toe to toe with him. Plenty of boxers would have went down tonight and with no shame. Looks like it was the right choice.

Nah, was troubling him big time - could see him literally stopping and rubbing it from late 2nd onwards. Was taking bombs in the 5th. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bighouse 1,012 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Good call from Dominic Ingle. Brook was doing well but GGG is just too big. Brook is a Welterweight in there with a guy who knocks out light heavyweights in sparring Escobar 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Band of Brothers 10,303 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 GGG what a boxer what a champion brilliant to watch and feel for Brook but he probably has a fucked eye socket. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEFTONG 60,097 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Brook was brave and deserves huge credit, but Hearn should have a look at himself here..Mis-match from the day it was announced. GGG is so strong and clinical. What a fighter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieD 18,936 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 To be honest, as annoying as it is from the spectator's point of view, you can't ever really argue with a corner stoppage like that. They know their fighter's capabilities and they have a better view than us. Better early than late. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siam69 26,876 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Premature for me. They were already waving the towel when he was nowhere near as hurt as the first round. It was like they were using Kell as a sparing partner, never expected him to even have a chance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverick1200 2,828 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 GGG called it right. He wasn't a middleweight and wasn't strong enough. I think if Brook was a natural middleweight, he might of been able to do it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Kool Blue 139 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I think size played a massive factor in the result of this fight, the weight jump was just to much, but massive respect for trying. Unless Mayweather wants to come out of retirement and give this guy a boxing lesson, I would like to see the winner of Canelo/Smith fight GGG next.

reallyruff 622 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Wasn't going to get any better for Brook. Corner made the right decision. He'll fight another day, make some money with upcoming fights and avoid a potentially serious eye injury. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Kool Blue 139 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Seems Kell was ahead on the scorecards, his camp stopped the fight because of injury. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creampuff 22,628 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Punk's purse will be tied to PPV buys. He'll bring fans with him. He'll get paid more because he brings fans with him. It makes sense. Hope he wins just to see the reaction from the fans love or hate him, it takes balls to get in the octagon for the first time at his age.

RangersMedia 35,961 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I'm not sure what sky are talking about in analysis, GGG never looked in any trouble. Brook did well in bursts, he is a good boxer, he is capable, but the fight was rapidly going only one way. That's the worst version of GGG I've seen Skyson1872 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyson1872 2,923 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 After watching the replay you could see why the ended it so quick, GGG would have knocked him out the next round if not the 5th. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
