    I reckon the man to beat Kell Brook is someone who can move, is quick and has a good right hand to throw over Brook's often slow jab.

    Marquez vs Brook at 147 perhaps.
    He threw some decent rights downstairs but yeah it was a limited effort...

    Im impressed with him just not entirely sold yet, not really a fan either despite the talent. As it goes im not a fan of that whole Wincobank gym!

      He had Hatton stunned, Hatton was using random head movement and Brook couldn't lay a solid glove on him during these periods. I was screaming at the telly, just throw some body shots bring his hands down then bash his head in. Anyone can block a barrage of straight shots by placing their gloves in front of their face. I mean come on it's stuff I know and do and common sense.

        Maybe you are just better than Special Kell.....


        He could have done with ramping up the body work, Hatton is tough and knows how to survive after a tough apprenticeship but even considering that i think Brook COULD have stopped him

            I usually form my own opinions but, those are usually paralell to Ring Magazines. The Ring is a good solid base for rankings.

              I find your lack of faith disturbing.

                Why not? He is crazy athletic, has a super awkward southpaw style that will give anybody trouble, and can change a fight with one punch. He's not on the level of Monzon B-Hop RJJ McCallum Eubank Sumbu Toney and Hagler but I put him on the level of Benn, Taylor, Hearns, McClellan, Winky, Valdez, Nunn etc.
