    A weight-drained, semi retired Brook is biggest test for Ennis' career. Okay. Is that how weak this young prime Ennis guy is? Really?

    In any case, how can it happen with the current mess where most promoters on different platforms can't even work together? Ennis can't even get top-level fights from the same network he's been fighting in, let alone from a foreign-based one.

    Can't you people ask for something realistic?

      Prime Kell would murder Conor Benn

      notice how they don’t put Benn in with anyone that can punch?

      His team won’t even put him in with Avanesyan, and Brook was twice the fighter he is. Avanesyan is nothing but a Euro level fighter that got hyped in the UK for smashing a Matchroom hype job. Brook now at 70% would whoop Avanesyan.

      So if they won’t put him in with Avanesyan, then you know he’s being protected. Imagine what they would have thought about his chances v Brook in his prime?

      i bet they wouldn’t even put him in with Brook right now. They talk a lot but the choice of opponent speaks volumes.

        Ennis vs Brook would last one round as of now.

        Brook would have knocked Khan out even by moving the air with the punches he missed. Which were many.

          It would also be a chance for Brook to revive his career and show he's still got it. A win over Boots would get him another title shot.

          Win-win situation = good fight

          Make it happen
          - - Gonna have to make it happen in England since Bootsy and Brooksy ain't gonna sell out an American Flea Market.

            Naw, I'm going to pass on this one. Brook should fight Nigel Benn's son next, Conner. Brook will be a good test to for Benn.

            Since there's so much hype behind Boots, he should prove it and fight someone like Keith Thurman.

              Yeah he’d earn far more vs Eubank Jr or the Vulture. Both more winnable fights too.

              Kell should retire IMO, it’s not gonna get any better for him, he should go out on a high unless he genuinely needs the money.

                Brook is drained at 147. He should fight Eubank jr. at 160 for the last payday.

                  This is a terrible fight for brook. He would take a real bad beating. Even if he won he wouldn't gain anything no big payday or belt

                    You know what, that would actually be the right opponent Boots needs to make a statement. Show that he’s ready for a title shot.

                      It's funny how people still act like Ennis is a youngster. He is almost 25. Canelo was beating Cotto at the same age. Ennis is good but not incredible. He won't be better. He is already at his physical prime and his ring IQ won't improve anymore.
