    I think it will be Ashley Theophane.

    Not a chance. Eddie tried to make Josh Kelly v Ashley Theophane for the Bellew-Haye card.
    Eddie would be slaughtered if he made Brook-Theophane.

    Doubt it will be Williams, Eggington it won't be.

    Hard sell for a PPV

    Sergey Rabchenko on Sky Sports March 3rd.

    He stopped Ryan Rhodes a few years ago.

    As a return from injury, it's OK so long as it isn't the main event. The guy hasn't had a win of any kind of note for a few years. Should be an easy stoppage

    It will be the main event. It's in Sheffield.

    Then I guess you're right. This won't tell us anything about Brook at 154 really but it's a return at least. Could be worse

    This opponent is pretty bad if you look at the record of his last few opponents. However I am sort of glad Kell has been matched against him as he needs to get his confidence back. This should last no more than 3 rounds and then Kell needs to fight again fairly soon after against someone who could give him 10-12 rounds. I'm also glad he is not fighting on PPV as it will take some of the pressure off regarding his performance.

    Looks like its on regular sky after all.
    Also someone needs to tell Hearn a stacked undercard isn't a load of big (ish) names fighting bums. Needs the top 2-3 fights to have name recognition and for the a side to not be 1/50 on to win
