    Depends on how Hatton and Khan do in their next fights. If Hatton wins his comeback it's almost a certainty he'll face Paulie next spring. If that's the case then I can see Brook v Khan around the same time with the winners of those bouts facing off around September/October time. That's probably Hearn's ideal plan for Brook. If he could finish off 2013 as IBF/WBA champ with Alexander, Khan and Hatton/Malignaggi scalps on his record he'd be a superstar in the UK and would be set up for some huge fights in the States. That's obviously in an ideal world though, I think Kell beats Khan, Hatton and Paulie but Alexander is going to be a big ask of him. Devon catches **** for pussying out in the Bradley fight and the gifts he got against Kotelnik and Matthyse, but he's still a very capable fighter.

    Considering the guys Brook has fought getting ready for this i would say the best thing to do is wait and see what happens with Alexander.

    Brooks team chose Alexander because Alexander is the least stylistic threat. His lack of ability inside was exposed by club fighter Carson Jones so they ducked Bradley and of course avoided Maidana and Peterson.

    But yeah Alexander should still be superior snd outwork him

    They avoided Peterson? When did anyone ever try to make Peterson v Brook ? Never even heard anyone mention that potential fight. Peterson ain't on Brooks radar right now
