Kell Brooks’ fight against IBF/IBO/WBA/WBC middleweight champion Gennady “GGG” Golovkin (36-0, 33 KOs) was a costly one, as he not only lost the fight by a 5th round knockout, but he also suffered a broken right eye socket. Brook’s trainer Dominic Ingle threw in the towel during the 5th round to have the fight stopped. The large crowd at ringside booed the stoppage at the O2 Arena in London, England. The fans paid their hard earned money and they wanted to see the fight play out to it’s conclusion rather than having it stopped prematurely. Brook said that he wished that the fight had been allowed to continue because he’d rather than have knocked out than stopped in the manner that it was. At the time, Brook was being bombarded by Golovkin with huge shots to the head and body. Things looked bmoleak for Brook. Before the round started, it looked like Ingle was letting Brook know already that he planned on having the fight stopped.
