Watching it again too. Brook has put his glove to his eye multiple times in this 3rd round. It's obviously screwing with him. He consistently does it for the rest of the fight too. GGG may have looked off, but he punished that side of the Brooks face with his jab throughout the fight.

The GGG post fight interviews are better than the fight

I fully agree with Marciano, something was up with GGG. He just didn't look his normal self. Maybe it was just Brook's speed that had him off of his game but something definitely did.

You can certainly understand the decision to stop the fight by Brook's corner. A broken eye socket is nothing to play around with when you're in there with a fearless guy that throws cinder blocks at you non stop.

GGG took some heavy shots as well and seemed to walk right through them. I'd love to see him fight Canelo.


The Gonzales fight was entertaining as always. He's definitely on my must watch list.


Countdown to Kovalev/Ward bitches!

Really good fight. Chocolatito is such a beast with that pressure. He was in dude's face the whole fricking fight.

That fight was way closer than the score card.

Agreed. Brook won 2 rounds, IMO

I definitely gave him the second, not sure about the other rounds, but they were close.

it was going to play out similarly to the khan/canelo fight where speed gave the 'bigger' fighter problems, but it was only a matter of time before G was going to end it.

he was gonna crush that eye socket into oblivion if it went 2 more.
