    Kell Brook's world title plans have again been disrupted after a foot injury forced him to pull out of his fight with WBA welterweight champion Devon Alexander.

    yep some things just cursed. Real shame. Gonna be annoying people talking about ducks and them never wanting the fight.

    How do you bring Brook back? Lets say he fights again in September. I would have im on an undercard first, maybe for the European title then back into a big fight by the end of 2013.

    Bundu is pretty handy though.

    Question is does he still on the IBF route or go down the WBA route? Maybe Ed Paredes #3 WBA?

    I'd stay IBF no point in starting again.

    I think he will have to relinquish his mandatory position.

    Senchenko, Bundu or Carson Jones in September would all be good comebacks.
