According to reported, former world champion Kell Brook has been quizzed by police for allegedly 'causing drunken havoc' on an easyJet flight from Liverpool to Barcelona.

The former IBF welterweight beltholder, 31, was allegedly swearing and shouting during the journey last month.

James Robinson, 35, who witnessed the commotion, said: "Kell and his mate were drunk when they got on the plane and carried on drinking with booze they'd bought in the airport," according to the Daily Star.

He added: "They were loud and Kell's mate was throwing things around. Everyone was getting pretty annoyed."

The alleged flight trouble took place just weeks after Brook lost his IBF world welterweight title to Errol Spence Jr. at Bramall Lane in Sheffield. It was Brook's second stoppage loss in a row and sent his record tumbling to 36-2 with 25 knockouts. Brook held the IBF welterweight title from 2014 to 2017.

He said at the time: 'I'm gutted, devastated that in front of my own fans I've lost my belt.'

In 2014, the fighter suffered a horrendous machete attack.

He told Sportsmail at the time: "The blood was splurting everywhere... I thought I was going to die."

An airline spokesman told the Daily Star: 'easyJet can confirm that police met a flight from Liverpool to Barcelona on arrival at Barcelona due to two passengers behaving disruptively.'

A spokesman for the Civil Guard in Barcelona added: "The Civil Guard attended the arrival area for the flight and contacted the personnel on board who informed us that there were two difficult passengers, in a drunken state, bothering passengers during the flight and even smoking on board during the journey. Neither of them was arrested."

Brook's management has not responded to requests for comment.
