At the WBC 30-day weigh-ins on August 10th, IBF 147 lbs champion Kell Brook rather surprisingly weighed 11 pounds heavier than his opponent, world #1 160 lbs powerhouse Gennady Golovkin.
We're just one month away from WBC/WBA/IBF champion Gennady Golovkin (35-0, 32 KOs) taking on Kell Brook (36-0, 25 KOs) in London, England on HBO Boxing. It's a fight that came to fruition after Chris Eubank Jr. and his father effectively priced themselves out of fighting GGG, and it's one that can best be described as completely unexpected. GGG is the consensus #1 middleweight (160 lbs) in the world who has stayed in his weight class throughout his career.
