Saw it on esb british forum Eddie hearn his promoter said it supposedly that Diaz would be a good opponent for Special K Wtf???? Brook stay in tha UK wit this bs fighting a shot fighter.... Its clear he ducked Alexander to fight soft competition
yeah Brook is starting to become irrelevant. Jones rematch is straight after the layoff, but then go and fight for a title after that
If this is true, I can only imagine that Brook has had second thoughts about the level he's at and decided he's not ready for the likes of Alexander etc yet. He was gaining momentum and it's pretty much gone out the window. Hopefully he won't end up having fought no one of importance by the age of 30. It happens, guys with a lot of talent who just decide they don't want the tough fights.
Brook was never been relevant. I don't understand some people, are you really that upset and hurt what Kell Brook is doing?
I think people can see that he's got talent and it's frustrating we're not seeing him in some big fights.
I think Hearns trying to line up the Khan fight, maybe he thinks by the time Brook beats Diaz Khan will have lost again and will be looking for a big domestic payday against Brook. Hearn probably doesnt wanna jeopardize that fight by taking a L against better competition
Sad. I was hoping to see Brook step up. Hearn is Froch's manager, so I know he's willing to sign tough fights. He even signed Brook/Alexander. Why take a step back now?
The problem is he's wasting his prime years against disappointing opposition. Coming towards 9 years into his pro career, and he hasn't fought a single person worthy of note. The "no need to rush his career" excuse has been used for him since 2009.
The mandatory period is 9 months so he'll be fighting the IBF title holder within the next 9 months hopefully.
