Comments Thread For: Hearn: Brook Will Face a Top Name on July 7 in Sheffield

[Hitman Hodgson]

Mike Jones?

[M Bison]

it better be alexander, that is the only legitimate matchup to make right now, winner faces aydin/guerrero winner and the winner of that fights Floyd...if only it worked that way

I can tell you right now Kell Brook says he has the brass to fight anyone but I bet you he wont get in the ring with any of the big guys...
If he was going to do that why does he want his next fight in Sheffield lmao, get a hometown decision if he fight's someone half decent?

I think Kell Brook is a brilliant fighter I just hate how most of our British fighters are so well protected he should be fighting in America and be fighting a REAL named opponent.

I say he should try fight someone like Mike Jones or the winner of Andre Berto and Victor Ortiz that's if he really wants to prove himself which he is yet to prove to his fans.

Then who does he fight in July?

It's not going to be anybody in the top 10... they won't travel.

Marcos Maidana could possibly be one although I'm not sure he will ever want to fight at 147 again for a while...
I agree Devon Alexander is a big name but I don't see Alexander saying I'm going to go to Mr Kell Brooks home town and fight him I don't think Alexander is that ******, the main problem I have is him not wanting to have his next fight in America.

"top name" could be someone like Casamayor or Prescott.

[ophqui]

i can't see any of the top names jaunting off to sheffield to fight kell brook. Its either a has-been they have in mind, or their being unrealistic and it wont happen at all. Mike Jones would be a possibility, although a bit fanciful to call him a top name

[Evil Abed]

Zavec, McClosky or Prescott.

Either one works.

[D-MiZe]

People are going to be disappointed.

i cant see any big name American based boxer making Brook an offer though. No one over there (tv viewers) knows him and he's a risky opponent, so unless he gets a mandatory that wont happen.

The only way for Brook to get one of them is for matchroom to make them an offer, and the only way they can do that is by bringing them over using money from the gate and sky tv.
