Very game tonight but stepping up two divisions against GGG was just too mutch for him, might have a future at Light Middleweight though

KB faced too much power. He kept touching his eye as soon as it got smashed. I know every fighter still standing think they're winning, but throwing the towel in was the right decision and certainly saved KB losing a few brain cells, if not worse.

Golovkin and canelo, who beat khan are throwbacks to how fighters used to be. Macklin said he had never been hit as hard as golovkin hit him early on in their fight. Brook showed bottle to go in the ring with him, the consolation is a good payday and move onto somebody who he can beat.
For me moving up two weight divisions, and facing the best there is straight away wasn't good planning, but maybe this was the only time he could get the opportunity.

It's a shame he broke his eye. Was out boxing GGG.

I agree to a point, but I don't think he was hurting him, GGG's power was always going to get him in the end
