To me he looks much worse than the good fighter who was KOed by Spence.Maybe this title shot will bring out the best fight and he will fight better than he has in years. I agree Spence is better than Crawford but Crawford is still much better than today's Brook in my opinion and the opinion of the odds makers who have Crawford about a 14 to 1 favorite.
Kell made two serious mistakes in judgement. First moving to 160 to fight Golovkin. To be fair that seemed like it might have been brilliant at first, he unloaded on Golovkin repeatedly but Golovkin's chin held and in the end he got chased down and hurt badly.
The second mistake was a lot harder to understand. Just seven months after fighting at 160 and facial surgery, he fought the king of 147. What was the rush??
I think Kell might not be so shot as folks are thinking. It's been 3 years now, he's had time to heal and time to train down. I guess we'll see but I wouldn't write him off just yet.
