Comments Thread For: Hearn: Kell Brook Against Conor Benn is a Brilliant Fight

[Bronx2245]

Wait wait but two weeks ago Eduardo Hearnia said that Brook was finished

Exactly! I like Brook vs. Benn better than Broner vs. Benn! At least Brook has stayed relatively active compared to AB! Hearn is high on Benn, but I like Montana Love! Wouldn't mind seeing him fight Benn @ 147, since Love struggled to make 140 in his last fight!

Stop going off on a tangent hearn. It's benn v eubanks we need before anything else. Brook fights winner

Wasn’t Hearn the same guy who a few days ago said he wouldn’t bother watching khan vs Brook because both were shot? Now Brook vs his up and coming “star” is a brilliant fight?

[Babadoux]

If Brook fights anyone, it should be at 154. Maybe 155 for Eubank Jr.

Hearn needs to stfu when it comes to Brooke.
Hearn clearly chucked Brooke under the bus against ggg. Brooke was pushed by Hearn to step up 2 weight classes to save the show & Hearn money & Hearn project's a lack of loyalty. He's filth

I don't think there's a boxing fan alive that doesn't question that fight. I know he wasn't "forced" in to it but they knew what they were doing. If you offered me 6 million quid to fight a prime GGG I'd 100% take it and I couldn't slap the pappus off a dandelion (I had to look that up)

Yes, and I don'r want to see any of Benn, Brook and Eubank fight each other. Eubank especially disappoints with these call-outs when he should be targetting the champions in his own weight class.

Last week Hearn said Brook is finished goods and now it's a huge fight vs Benn

Good old snake oil salesman

This. I can’t see how this man manipulates (or even has) his fanbase when he talks out of his 4th point of contact like this. He simply saw how successful a promotion it was with BOXXER and Sky and wants to be apart of that

Kell Brook does not get out of bed for fights with prospects at this stage of his career. Vacant title maybe.

This will be a big block buster fight, that is something Brook can get motivated for etc

I see this fight happening at 149-150 pounds, as Hearn has stated those weight numbers 'Once it is stated you cannot back track in this game'.

Listening to Dominic Ingle speak in recent interviews, it has reinforced me with reassurance that Brook can come in good condition under Ingle.

Ingle seems eager and game for Conor Benn.

The reason why I am quoting Ingle and not Brook, is because I know? He is no nonsense, if Brook could not beat these guys 'Ingle would not associate himself with Brook and tell him to retire'.

If Conor Benn takes this fight at 154 pounds, I would be surprised. Well it is more so Hearn that will probably shy away from 154, as I think Benn has also stated he has no issue with going to 154 pounds etc

There's very little left of Broke. Enough to beat a completely shot for years Khon, yes, but that wasn't asking much.
Looking at him at weigh-in, I very much doubt broke can make 147 and be in any fit state to fight.
