    Looks like he's broken his eye socket.

    Brave effort lasted a round longer then I thought, but trainer did well to stop that Kell was gonna get hurt real bad. GGG too strong.

    GG dismissing Brook completely.

    Mismatch.

    Ingle did very well to protect Kell.

    Too much of a step up for Kell. One weight class is doable but two...well the gulf was too great. Yeah he landed punches but GGG's had more power...****ed eye socket says it all

    The right call from his corner.
    Brook could have received life threatening punishment if it had gone on another 2/3 rounds as it would have most likely ended in a brutal knockout.

    Just watched it. As predicted, an absolute mismatch. Brook was brave as hell, as one would expect, but he was battered from the first bell. The commentators sounded ****ing daft, wittering on about how Golovkin wasn't happy and how Brook was really testing him.

    Watch the video with the sound turned down, with no partisan commentary or crowd noise to mess with your mind; what you'll see is a brave bloke getting absolutely filled in by a relentless opponent.

    Totally agree, the commentator was getting carried away and was going on as though Brook was giving GGG a bit of a going over.

    In reality he caught GGG with some crisp, clean combinations which did next to **** all in relation to hurting him.

    He just nodded, kept coming forward and kept battering him.

    You see the same thing in every Golovkin fight. His defence is good, but not great, so he gets hit, far more often than someone like Mayweather. However, this doesn't matter, because you can't hurt the bloke, or stop him. He just nods, then closes you down again. A machine. 375 fights as an amateur and a pro, and never knocked down. Never ****ing knocked down, even once.

    The commentators going on about Brook tagging him with good shots was embarrassing. It was like they'd never seen GGG fight before.

    Saunders has just called out GGG.

    I recall the post fight press conference where Saunders and Eubank were having a proper go at each other.

    I will quote Saunders.

    "You're full of ****. You go on about fighting Golovkin. Golovkin would beat me and you in the same night mate".

    Oh dear.
