Originally posted by BIGPOPPAPUMP View PostCraven Park Stadium, Hull, Yorkshire - At a catch-weight of 152-pounds, Kell Brook (30-0, 20KOs) stopped Carson Jones (35-10-3, 25KOs) in the eight round. Last July Brook barely won a twelve round majority decision over Jones, at welterweight.
Brook was dominating from the first bell. He hurt Jones a few times in the second round and sent him down. Jones took a one-sided beating the third round and the referee appeared to be close to stopping it. Jones began a minor rally in the fourt and caused damage to the nose of Brook. Jones was hurt again early in the sixth, but tried to come back hard in the final minute.

Brook one dimensional, Carson made him work. No fighter in the states will be bothered about meeting Kell "not so Special K" Brook.

Also Rios would be a nasty opponent given how much Kell struggled with Jones even in this 1 sided fight. Don't forget this was at 152lbs and a 10 rounder. 147 and 12 (which Jones wanted) and Kell will carry less power.
There's also Matthysse who I think would knock Kell out cold.
He's going to have to improve a hell of a lot to survive in todays welterweight division if he has any aspirations beyond fringe contender level.
I also think Khan will be just too much for him, would like to see that fight.
Or what about Quillin, GGG, et al? Might as well since you mention a string of people not even fighting in his weight class. Tool

Brook is a very good puncher and he is very skilled offensively. Factor in Khan not being able to crack an egg and his paper chin...Brook puts him into highlight reels.

I didn't even want Brook to win, but if we're being honest, he came off 10 month layoff, and several injuries, to dominate and hurt an opponent who he had previously struggled with.
Brooks problem is that sometimes he lets fights slip him by, and is far too passive and jab orientated. When he fights from the centre of the ring, and throws in combinations his boxing looks beautiful. However, he has the tendency to fall back against the ropes where his workrate is almost non existent. And while his defence is far from bad, when up against the ropes he absorbs shots he doesn't need to.
Still, it was a very mature performance from Brook. The kid has talent, but I'm afraid his injuries and weight struggles are going to destroy his career.
He needs a big fight, and soon. Sink or swim. I really don't believe there are many welterweights that could hang with a motivated, in shape Kell Brook.
