    Comments Thread For: Brook Wants Bigger Names, But Not Looking Past Dan

    Kell Brook will defend his IBF welterweight title against Jo Jo Dan in Sheffield on Saturday just six months after fearing his life was over.

    The 28-year-old was stabbed in Tenerife in September and was left fighting for his life with blood pouring from a 12-inch wound.

    But on Saturday night he will walk out in front of a home crowd for the first defence of the title he won against Shawn Porter in California last summer.

    Having fought his way up through the city's sports halls and leisure centres to top the bill in front of an expected crowd of more than 10,000, Brook admits his biggest battle might be to stop his emotions getting the better of him.

      Biggest name he is going to get is Khan or Thurman, chasing Pac or May is futile right now.

            Yeah Hearn is scurred of One Time. But I think Brook legitimately wants it. Hopefully Brook says F-U to his promoter and demands the fight like Canelo did with Oscar to get Lara.

              Thurman was specifically named by Brook again just the other day, good fight for him.

                Well it would be a big step up from the trash he's been facing.

                    The names that are constantly mentioned by Brook/Hearn are Rios and Marquez. JMM seems to be contemplating retirement so Rios could get the call, he's not very good but at least he's exciting.
