"Terence Crawford vs Brook |ESPN| & a big weekend for UK women |DAZN|"


          

This Bud vs Brook fight could be a sleeper. Kell Brook's been fighting up at 154, so not only is a bigger guy, but he's acclimated to fighting bigger guys now. People are writing Brook off since having had both his eye sockets broken against GGG and Spence respectively, but he has everything to gain and nothing to lose. It's the opposite for Crawford. The fact that Kell even had the discipline to make the weight signals this dude just might fight the fight of his life. I expect Crawford to work his magic, but as they say "this is boxing." Brook was doing very well against both Spence and GGG before being stopped, no matter how this fight goes, it's going to be interesting.

Before that fight happens at night though, there's a UK card with 3 women's title fights, headlined by the great Katie Taylor defending her undisputed status at Lightweight. She'll be fighting Miriam Gutierrez who has yet to fight outside of Spain, but can be tricky and really nice with it when she's in her rhythm. Good footwork and head movement. Word is she hits very hard as well. Gonna be a good one.
Possibly the most intriguing one of the 3 with be Terri Harper vs Katharina Thanderz. Harper is a young champ who recently won her belt, then was tested and arguably beaten by Jonas in her next fight which was judged a draw. She retained her titles and took it as a wake up call. Both her and Thanderz enter this fight undefeated. Thanderz is more of a vet. This could very well be another huge test for Harper. Very competitive fight on paper.
Lastly, Rachel Ball, an ex kickboxer, rose to prominence when she upset rising star, Shannon Courteny. She's challenging for a vacant title. It was supposed to be at bantamweight, but her opponent came in so far over the limit that it's now for an interim super bantam status. Ball should win. She's 5'9" which is super tall for her weight.

Brook is a very dangerous fighter. His conditioning was his biggest flaw

      Bud was gonna win this fight regardless, but I'm thinking Brook is shot

           A few reasons I can't buy into the narrative that he's shot...
