Im about to sleep, but wow, this is a bomb! This is a great fight, #1 at each weight will collide!

[DJ_Quaaludes]

Dan Rafael od ESPN:

"Golovkin, already blown off by lineal middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez, titleholder Billy Joe Saunders and now Eubank, needed an opponent, and Brook, looking at taking a small share of the money against Vargas, instead dared to be great by agreeing to move up to 160 pounds to challenge Golovkin.

Golovkin-Eubank will air in the United States on HBO and on Sky Box Office pay-per-view in the United Kingdom."



Move up! Dare to be great! Good luck Kell! This is what champions do!!

I love how Dan's story already has a typo noting Eubank as the opponent. Probably had it ready to go already and forgot to hit find/replace hahaha.

Would have much rather preferred GGG go after guys at 168 than this, but oh well....

**** YEAH!!!! Huge mega fight right here, Brook>Khan. Brook has a big name. And to all the idiots who cant understand this, the plan is to stay light and close to Canelo. This signals that Gennady is preparing to move down a few pounds to get the Canelo fight sooner. Thats where the money fights are and Gennady is making the sacrifice to be great!!

I have never seen a destructive force be willing to move up or down sacrificing power and resistance just to cement his legacy with force since people his own weight dont wanna fight him. Gennady is a ****ing legend.

Oops! GGG is fighting Brook at 160! GGG is not moving up, or moving down! It's Kell Brook moving up 2 weight classes:

This is obviously a money move.

Brook taking €3-4million as opposed to the €1million for Vargas.

100% the only reason. *** the crap about "daring to be great" that's BS. It's money and nothing else.

[Pain~Lucy]

No he isn't, Brook has a better skill-set.

It's irrelevant though, jumping 2 full divisions to fight the biggest puncher in the sport is a terrible idea. It should very much end badly.

How is brook more skillful? Ggg has credentials to back it up

Dan is probably still in shock!

[ИATAS]

damn Brook is crazy. This a strange development given that Hearn promotes both Brook and Eubank. This came out of no where.

[BoZz]

[Skip Bayless]

[Golden Boi 360]

If Kell Brook pulls this off he is a god.
