    I gag every time I hear the phrase "making Britain proud" when a British dude fights in the US.

      He's no bum...But, he's a poorman version of the Prince though IMO.

        What has Jones ever done that would lead you to make such a knee-jerk reaction statement?
        Brook has patience, power, athleticism, excellent timing and accuracy, and has one of the best jabs in all of boxing!

          Brook can beat anybody except Manny and Floyd in WW right now. I expect Khan avoiding him for as long as possible.

              Hey maybe you can beat Vitali Klitschko as well. But just like Brook you don't have a record that says you can.. So equal props to both of you

                When you compare Brook to Khan you make yourself foolish. Brook is barely a contender, whilst Khan is a unified champ.
                Kell is talented, but the hype must stop.

                  Brook has tremendous natural talent. I just hope he gets his chance to prove it whilst in his best years as he has World Champion potential for sure.

                    26th fight and the best fighter he fought was Michael Jennings.

                    I know the Polish lad was ranked highly but he had a nightmare against Brook.

                    He's been brought along slower than any British fighter I can remember and that's saying something. Even Jame DeGale and George Groves would be criticised for taking on this type of oppositions and they are pretty much novice pros.

                    I don't know what to make of him. Other than he looks like he punches hard, and has a nice jab and right hand.

                      Agreed... I think his Dad has something to do with it all, if you can believe what Frank said anyway.

                      My only problem with him is he seems a bit slow..
