Comments Thread For: Kell Brook Motivated To Do a 'Calzaghe-Lacy' Job on Crawford

[SteveM]

Every time a British fighter mentions the lacy beating they get pumped

That being said I hope brook pulls it off ! 33-1 on a draw

Got to be worth a cheeky tenner

How do you see a draw? Brook winning the eyesight test but judges bailing Bud out?

I'm more for a Brook win at 8-1, but you've got me thinking now. Damn! - there is serious corruption with same old judges - all those poor scores over the years.

Brook is not lacking confidence but the Lacy comparison is nuts. Crawford is a beast. Brook better rock him early or he will be picked apart. Hopefully his eyes do not sustain permanent damage.

I agree but giving Brook no chance as some have could come back to bite them.

I’m sure that Crawford isn’t taking Brook lightly. He has the pressure of not only winning but winning impressively to keep himself relevant

[NachoMan]

Oh, man. Now he's done it. Bud is going to beat this man within an inch of his life for comparing him to Jeff fcking Lacy. That's low.

[Roberto Vasquez]

Brook is just selling this fight to his fans. We all know he has no chance. Crawford fighting another "Name" fighter who is way past their best

[NachoMan]

Brook is possibly the most delusional man in boxing, it’s him or Whyte.

He's certainly making a case for himself, but, nah, you've got too many other guys ahead. Wilder is king right now, but then you've got so many others - Kahn, JCCJr, Devin Haney...

It bothers me that some folks are diminishing Joe Calzaghe's place as a great fighter by referencing his outstanding performance against Jeff Lacy who was overated. Joe's body of work proves his greatness and one shouldn't discount his victory over Bernard Hopkins. Yes, I was a fan of Calzaghe and I'm an American as well.

Khan , wilder , Chavez jnr

Brook is a saint compared to the clowns mentioned

Absolutely spot on....!

[zzat]

I like Brook and I wish him well with the rest of his fighting career. For this fight though, he is unlikely to prevail.

[BirdSong]

lacy was the guy doing the travelling in that fight to calzaghe, brook is being hosted by crawford, most likely they will both do about as good as each other
