Maybe I'm the only one who thinks it but there's some similarities between this fight and the Kostya Tszyu v Hatton fight back in 05.
Some people weren't giving Hatton a prayer just like they're not giving Brook a prayer and some similarities between Kostya Tszyu and GGG in terms of fear factor and people not wanting to fight them.
Brook beating GGG is undoubtedly a bigger achievement though, especially when you factor Kell going up to 160.

Nah that's not what he's doing. He's just using it as a motivational tool. Maybe slightly deluding himself there by thinking GGG had fear in his eyes.
Mayweather ducked Brook and Golovkin, it's good these two will fight each other.
Even though Brook has weighed in heavier at every weigh in GGG is naturally bigger. But size won't be the determining factor.
They are both skilled in the pugilistic arts but have different styles. Golovkin got a great jab, very accurate and very heavy handed with he bludgeons his opponents into submission in. Kell is quick elusive, has sharp counters and has an unorthodox style.
But it's footwork where the fight will be decided. Both are excellent, Brook has to keep the fight on the outside and not get caught in the corners and just hold when GGG Gets close, which the hometown ref will allow him to do.
Golovkin just has to close the gap and land his shots. Brook will react and then it's just a matter of time.
Brook has a much more smaller margin of error to win, so for me GGG in 7
