Evening chaps,
Just a little poll to see who you would like Kell Brook to fight next, it seems very likely it will be Mosley however that is a fight I wont watch, I'm not in favour of a old Mosley take on a fresh young fighter who's chances at this stage are very good.
I'll dab the names up, and well see what the forum like.
Brook would kill Broner based on his performance against Mallignaggi.
Ud have a point if we didn't see Brooks two performances against Carson Jones, neither were impressive. And id still pick Paulie to be Jones btw.
Because he's better than Broner.
Broner isn't beating any top fighter at 147 or above. Brook's jab would hit him at will, he'd land his combo's on Broner's leaky defence and I don't see how Broners flat-footed, walk you down style is going to be remotely effective against a guy who is naturally much bigger, stronger and harder hitting than he is.
We'll see if the fight happens, all my points will go on Brook dominating him with complete ease.
Lol u severely overrate brook.
Based on what??Broner would beat the breaks off Brook..

True
I picked Abregu,but I'd like to see him fight Jessie Vargas as well..I think Brook is level with either fighter..Either fight would be good and prove something imo..
Agreed. I don't dislike Brook, Simply because he has not had it as wonderful and promised as Khan. I guess now is the time for him to really make a statement and to do that he has to either put out one of the up and coming young ones or fight a hard hitter like Maidana or Prov. Broner would be a big risk and his rising stock could take a massive drop before he is even slightly recognised.
I'd like to see Brook fight Maidana.
I think he'd win a wide UD, but he'd be made to work hard for the victory that's for sure.
Sink or swim time for Brook. He's been unlucky with injuries, but it's time he stepped it up.
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for another fight as he's coming off a 10 month layoff and bad injuries, but after that he needs to fight a top contender/world champion.
I think Kell needs to work his way back to making the 12 rounds and finishing strong, so maybe one more step before diving in against the younger crop of top WW.
I like the Mosley fight for him and don't think it would be easy, I think Brook is very open to right hands mid-range and inside.. we know Shane just can't get off with that punch as often as he used to, his pace isn't great but pretty steady...still down to give a great effort like he just did against Cano..he kinda had to dig that one out, so I think he would have something for Kell for the whole 12. Brooke would have to put it all together for his fight time to win it

Put him in with Broner, I have absolutely zero doubt that Brook blasts him.
It would be a good action fight too.
I actually think it could happen. Broner has to fight someone and Brook isn't particularly well thought of by the Americans it seems.
If Broner's power doesn't carry up to Welter it looks like he'll be a sitting duck for a lot of these top Welters.
Brook would definitely land on Broner.
Omg would love for him to smash Devon Alexander's arse to bits and make him quit on his stool.
But I would love it even more if he was the one to shut Broner up. Doubt they'll risk it they way they've brought him along though.
Hello Mate,
It's very possible but people grow. He might be able to make the weight but will it actually aid him. Welter is a strong division to be weight drained in.
On the other hand, Light Middle is a tough one to be the 'little' guy in.
True, good points.
Hopefully he can make 147 still cos i cant picture him fighting the bigger guys at 154. We will see in September i suppose!
i think adrien broner is all wrong for kell brook. just a bad matchup for him. broner would hit him at will and once brook gasses, which probably will happen, the fight will be over quickly.
Kell would expose broner even further imo, brook looks like he has a good chin - broners power is drained at WW, Kell brook has a piston like jab - broner struggles with a jab, broner is low volume - kell is high volume (well a lot higher than AB), Theres rumours that broner has a shaky chin at the higher weight classes - brook has decent pop at WW. Im going for a Brook stoppage if this fight happens or a Broner robbery
I would agree but he is apparently looking to stay at 147. According to his dad and a recent interview with Kell (on main page).
I wonder if the months of inactivity made it more difficult to make 147?

I'm really not sure if Brook can make Welter safely anymore.
