PaddockLoyal 105 Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 What a load of shiteHe couldn't even knock out glass chin khanHe couldn't catch Khan. He had him near enough out on his feet when he did though. Nobody hits as hard as Maidana at 140, and Hatton's chin is probably as suspect as any after that huge Pacquiao KO.

Gillete 1,338 Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I'm a big K Brook fan but really dissapointed in thisHe's been shouting out he wants a world title and he had the chance but has opted for another eliminator, yes another one just like the last one was meant to be Eddie Hearn and matchroom are meant to be good for uk boxing but lately I'm starting to think the oppositeHe is matchmaking his fighters against guys who are over the hill and keeping them away from the major playersThe likes of the warren stable ( burns etc ) and frank Maloney, hatton promotions etc are all being kept from sky and im sick of hearing how good Darren barker is etc Guys like David price have been offered no sky contract due to him not being a matchroom fighter Anyway, here's what brook had to say Brook said: “The Bradley fight was put in front of me but I believe the mandatory position is the IBF is the right move. Eddie [Hearn] has worked hard to get me into this position and providing I beat Saldivia, I’ll be fighting for a world title at the start of 2013 and it will be on my terms.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knows that Bradley will be moving up weight and vacate the title. Poor form from brook who has been nursed up till now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdog19 16 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Don't have much a problem with Kell Brook and personally I think he's made the right decision in turning down Bradley. He's not ready for him. Pisses me off though how Sky constantly label him as "world class" when the toughest opponent he has faced is Carson Jones.

If thats the case he is right to tell them to fuck off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdog19 16 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Burns' next defence is to be his mandatory, which is Broner, but Broner is fighting DeMarco instead. Likely to be Jose A. Gonzalez as his next opponent if he's fighting in December. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he felt he mad emistakes and made harder work than he needed to against Jones.for the record, i'd edge towards Brook as favourite against Bradley.

So depending what Ricky we see in November I would be very confident of a stoppage for him. If malignaggi can stop him. Surely ricky canAlthough Paulie has improved after stepping up in weight he's never been a puncher so the damage he caused is quite telling however for me this is no walkover and a much tougher fight than I thought he'd open his comeback with.

JRodgA2k8 542 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Khan announced "exclusively" on soccer AM that his trainer is Virgil Hunter and he'll be fighting Carlos Molina on December 1st or 15th. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdog19 16 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Khan-Molina will probably be on the undercard of Miguel Cotto vs. Austin Trout on December 1st. That would be my guess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
