i'm a big fan of brook and seen his last 6 fights since he won the british title, but he's still totally untested for me.
i'm a bit concerned that i've not even seen him take a meaningful punch yet in any of those fights - his chin could be made of glass, we don't know! no one has even made him dig in, its been so easy for him. having said that jennings is a decent fighter and he dealt with him no problem.
i don't think he's ready to go straight into a title fight because of this, even if it is only against bundrage . going up in weight when he's spent his whole career so far at 147 doesn't make sense either.
i thought matthew hatton for the euro belt would be perfect for him, but his brothers connections got him the fight against alvarez.
mike jones makes most sense because they are both undefeated prospects. throwing him in with an experienced 3 weight champ like cotto at this stage would be ******, cotto isn't exactly shot yet.
