    People are saying Eubank's speed will trouble GGG, but he dealt with speed in the amateurs where it's a much bigger advantage. GGG will steam roll him in 8 imo.

    People are trying to compare this to Canelo accepting a fight against Khan, also a significantly lighter welterweight. I'm going to defend GGG here and say he accepted this fight after talks with Canelo and Eubanks Jr. both folded. Not the same thing. I'm also going to stick with what I said about Khan, cashing in your chin for respect and/or a payday is not something I think highly of. They have absolutely nothing to lose when nobody expects it to be competitive in the first palce. Brook has a death wish or the tragic flaw of hubris, either way this is not going be pretty. Hopefully the UK puts pressure on Billy Joe Saunders to man up against GGG after they watch him dismantle one of their own in person.

    His GOAT tweet was when he said that he injured his leg and posted a picture of him with his d-ck out.

    Yep. Brook shows up, puts in a few rounds, and his camp throws the towel when it starts to turn. A total work to make him look good. Lose/lose for GGG.

    Doubtful anybody cares, but the 2012 Light Heavyweight Gold Medalist is taking on the WBC Cruiserweight Champion in the next hour. Glowacki recently dethroned longstanding champ Marco Huck in a FOTY candidate from 2015. Usyk is one of the brightest prospects in the sport and could surpass Holyfield as having the fewest fights (9) to the WBC Cruiserweight title. He also has a 100% KO rating going for him (not rare early in your career).

    You can get a free trial on www.klowdtv.com and catch it. Should be way more interesting than watching Canelo crush a can.

    Usyk-Glowacki was pretty d--- good. Usyk has great footwork for a cruiserweight.

    Fury-Klit II cancelled again. Fury deemed mentally unfit though it's more likely that he's way out of shape as well.
