      Well, that is sparring...but to say Brook looked good there would be lying.

        All these Hearn AJ, Brook, Froch events sell out instantly, Bellew sold out too right ? If they can sell an arena out with Bellew headlining they can sell anything IMO with those guys headlining, didnt that Bellew guy do over 20k at a soccer stadium recently ?

          They only sell a few thousand tickets to fans the rest are sold to ticket brokers like stubhub.

            Based on that clip it looks like Brook will get KO'D earlier in the fight rather than later.

              Double 8 is usually reasonsbly priced after a sell out event. Just checked now and the tickets are grossly over priced which suggests they were expensive to begin with. Not the price I would pay for a mismatch.

                Bellew fought for a world title at Goodison Park, the home stadium of Everton, his home-town football club, the same as he did in the latest Rocky franchise film.

                Did it sell out? You bet your sweet effing life it did!

                  People analysing a 1 minute clip of sparring

                  It always surprises me how people on a forum, who never stepped foot inside a gym once, who don't know what sparring is for and what is being worked on, judge it like it was a fight.

                  Seriously. Some people.

                  It's a 15 foot sparring ring ffs. Stop talking like you're experts when you aren't.

                      UK fans get behind their fighters, and are enthusiastic about watching them fight. They dont spend all day crying about matches that havent been made, obsessing about how much the fighters are getting paid and who the A side is, or throwing fighters on the trash heap once their 0 goes.
