    good fight. kell seems to be injury prone. but i feel hes better, but at this point of kells career i think the love isnt really there anymore. i think vargas has more desire at this point. close fight either way. and would be a fun fight in the uk .

    Kell is such an idiot, he turned this fight down when it could of been to unify for the titles. Instead he took on GGG and got his face broken smh.

    Kell needs an excellent performance to become relevant again IMO (and I'm a Brook fan).

    I think this just might be a good matchup for Kell.

    I think Kell is all but done, but Vargas isn't a heavy hitter and he faded somewhat in a good performance against Broner. I thought Dulorme meanwhile beat him, so perhaps even this faded Brook could do something, if, BIG IF, he can show up in better shape than that last awful outing.

    Anyway, from being disinterested this one has piqued my interest somewhat.

    I remember this. Crazy decision.

    Could have made him a major player at Welter

    vargas is turning into a fan friendly fighter. even though he should stick to boxing. he could of beat broner if he would of boxed.

    This is a 90-10 in Brooks favor. Jessie Vargas is awful, lucky to get a draw against Broner and Dulorme.

    Fight Hurd for goodness sakes. Stop trying to wait for Khan. He won't fight Kell Brook, it's not going to happen.

    As for this fight, it's very one sided. Brook will dominate Vargas. Anyone who says this is 50-50 is kidding themselves. People are acting like Brook is 50 years of age the way they are talking. Loads of you seem to think that those losses are the end of the world and Brook is 50% of what he was before. It is utter nonsense. He is still the same fighter. Just a different trainer which he needs to get used to. You can't judge him off the Zerafa fight.

    Yep Vargas was a 140 pounder a few years back and Brook has always been a huge 147, even 154 at times. I thought Brook and Horn were talking about a big fight?
