    Kell Brook pulled off a great win against Senchenko. Despite some thinking Senchenko is overrated, he was a world champion and to take any former champ out in that fashion shows huge potential.

    From what we have seen, how far can he go?

    Does he beat Khan? imo I now say yes. He can counter Khan to land the KO. Similar to Senchenko But obviously longer to break down. Reason is that khan can be taken out early and has an up right style which Brook can cope with (although big step up).

    Does he beat Alexander? I've only been watching him since Bradley so i'm not sure how good Alexander is although i think Brook can win the fight in the UK.

    Does he beat Broner? Very tricky tricky fight and i like to see him take it after he beats the two people above.

    Does he beat Garcia? IMO ofcourse.

    World Champion? or Unified World Champion? or 2 Weight World Champion?

    There's no way he beats Garcia.

    Two weight champion IMO.
    IBF Welterweight Title
    And Easy WBO light middle weight title win vs Brian rose (if rose wins)

    Khan was boxing the head off Garcia before he got caught with a very wide hook. There's no way Brook would get caught with a wide hook like that. Garcia would get outboxed.

    i love Brook but i dont see him beating Garcia...i think Brook is between 5th and 10th in world at the moment .probably not quite good enough to beat the best but would give anybody a good fight...
    2-3 world title fights for our Kell i reckon and with the talent out there that is not to be ashamed of

    I agree with all the OP apart from Garcia. Garcia is elite

    It is all about levels. Paulie stopped Senchenko in 9, Brook in 4. It is a good gauge of where Brook is and he is defo top 5.

    Depends how l.ong he can concentrate for during a fight, against Alexander he wont be able to switch off at all as he is tricky to fight.

    Garcia is above Kell, he finds a way to win against a variety of styles. Cant say that about Kell yet as he simply hasnt boxed at a high enough level to judge

    Garcia is a Light Welter and not the second coming either.

    The only man imo capable of beating him at 147 is Floyd. And he is strangely silent on the issue.

    Kids got everything.

    His Defense isn't the best, when he gets hit it gets a bit messy and he goes to the ropes, i wouldn't be that shocked if Brook gets stopped at some point.

    Bit of a statement considering Brook's CV.

    One that I completely disagree with.

    I think he knocks Khan out, but it's hard to say how he would do against the other top welterweights until he actually steps up. IMO he would win a world title easier at light middleweight.

    Khan will box Gracia's head off in a rematch, Khan stays on the outside and outpoints Garcia.

    As long as Khan feels better at 147 which i think he will, Khan will show you Garcia is limited and flat footed.

    Same if Khan feels good at 147, He beats Kell too, But i do think Kell can hurt Khan, so its not a straight forward fight too.
