โON Saturday night Kell Brook will brutally discover that it take more than a 10 week scientific experiment to topple Gennady Golovkin.โ
Abel Sanchez, the trainer of Golovkin, spoke out clearly, even if the implicit threat was chilling.
Brook has been preparing diligently with trainer Dominic Ingle and working with sports scientists in Sheffield to bridge the gulf from welterweight to middleweight.
But Dominic explained that in the past Brook has done โ20 week training camps just to get down to the weight. Thereโs been times when weโve had him on special diets to actually take muscle off him so he can actually safely make the weight. This is probably the only time Iโve ever seen him happy in a training campโ.
Ingle continued, โHeโs had energy all the way through the training camp. Basically the odds are going to change the closer we get to the fight when Kell Brook steps on the scales on Friday and people see what kind of shape heโs in.
โThis isnโt a big guy fighting a small guy, this is two middleweight champions fighting. So the advantage, if there was one, the big guy and the small guy, thatโs gone. Weโve done it very technically, weโve been to university, weโve had him measured, everythingโs been calculated, no stone has been left unturned. There are no chances with this fight. You canโt take chances with a guy like Golovkin because one mistake and the gameโs over.
โSo donโt blink. Keep your eyes glued. Donโt write off Kell Brook. Keep your minds open because this guy is the underdog but heโs coming to win.โ
