What a shame, never fancied Brook from the moment the fight was announced to be honest. Unfortunate way to end it but he was already beaten really. 

Perhaps if he didn't mess about fighting at middleweight he might have won tonight, probably should have fought at super Welterweight, not the same after six rounds.

The weight cut was always the worry for Brook mate, and so it told. He looked screwed from the 7th- even allowing for the orbital you need to be able to compete for 12 rounds.

Brook has to move up or retire imo. Spence is going to be a superstar, he is teak hard.

Brook getting a lot of abuse online and in interviews, including from Tony Bellew and Eubank Jr. Truth is, no point being a hero where your eyesight is concerned. I 100% would do the same thing and any man who says otherwise is an idiot, not a 'hero'.

 

As for Groves, delighted for the kid, he deserves it. Stood tough as the Russian was game and got the win in brutal fashion. Hoping for a rematch with Chunky, only this time at the Emirates.

I heard the 5Live podcast today and Bunce really didn't mince his words when talking about some of the comments made after the fight. Described them as 'an absolute disgrace[...]fools, idiots and bullies.' Around 22:30 here if anyone is interested:

Very rich coming from Eubank Jr given he didn't even have the minerals to take the GGG fight..  Brook has always had the balls to take on the big fight.. he could have easily vacated and let Spence take the belt but he didn't...

Bellew shit his britches when he was in with Adonis Stevenson too, he shouldn't be lecturing Brook on heart.

And as for Eubank jnr, he is an embarrassment to the sport. Giving it the big 'un then running away from GGG to win a World title no one has ever heard of against a tomato can. His enormous gob is forever writing cheques his mediocrely skilled arse can't cash.

Ironically, of all the boxers in the world, it was only the brash Adrian Broner who personally sent a tweet to Kell Brook warning him not to fight GGG saying the punishment he would receive would ruin his career.

Have you seen the talk of Broner fighting Mikey Garcia? Garcia by brutal ko if it happens.
