IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook (33-0, 22KOs) is finally back in the gym and getting himself fit. Brook, who a few weeks ago was attacked and stabbed in his leg, is having rehab on his leg every other day. Brook is getting ready to make the first defense of his world title in late February.
According to the Sheffield Star, Brook is having intensive treatment at Sheffield United - including an electric volt passed into his leg and ice treatment to stimulate blood supply. He will have an MRI scan soon.
“I am back and I can’t wait to start boxing again,” Brook said.
Brook captured the world title in August with a twelve round decision victory over previously undefeated Shawn Porter at the StubHub Center in Carson, California.
