    Nice touch stepping in for the Ricky Hatton Foundation—proper respect to the Hitman there. But I hope this isn't the start of Kell sliding back into full pro bouts or dipping a toe into BKB waters, especially after the damage Paulie took over the weekend and the lack of appropriate medics on site. If cashflow's the real driver, he'd be better off getting Ebanie back on OnlyFans; that'd clear the decks quicker than a comeback on a show that resembles a straightener outside the pub.

    If you open the dictionary and look for 'shot' fighter there's a picture of Kell, or at least there should be. I won't be watching, but I hope he doesn't take excess punishment.

    Currently going through a costly divorce so wouldn't surprise me to see a comeback.

    He should stay retired. Too many tough fights.

    And with train Wreck Ebanie Bridges as his new partner and mother of his kid, the costs and drama is not set to go away any time soon is it?

    He does have a history of questionable decisions.

    Going in with a then rampaging GGG

    Boiling back down to 147 to go in with a peak Spence

    Defenses against undeserving challengers instead of unifying, in my opinion, he was the best welter in the world at one point

    Not sure what to think about the Ebanie Bridges thing, I'm not a fan of hers at all (I'm sure she's bothered) other than it was entirely surprising to me, I'm assuming he's going through a divorce, and living outside the UK, which can't be cheap.

    This interview with Kell calling their son a killer with two champion parents, saying he'll be in the finals of the schoolboy champs. Not even a year old and already the pressure is on, can't help but feel bad for him.

    Brook seems to have a new lease of life lately & hes not the only one from matchroom FC currently boning a bird from that side of the world.

    She will probably rinse him eventually so should try & enjoy it while he can

    I wouldn’t advise a comeback but for the bare knuckle stuff at least he packs a punch (unlike others who dipped their toes) and had a sturdy chin when his weight was correct

    That Oz Gob looks like it can take two tennis balls, three apples and a coconut at the same time.
