    So, without getting into the merits of how he would have won anyway or how Jennings would come into the fight late on, la de da......his best win was one that stopped early because of a cut caused by a glancing blow.

    I think there's your answer.

    He needs to step it up, and hopefully he'll go a long way.

    He seems a decent fighter but it is hard to say where he is at because of the level of opposition.

    Jennings was coming into the fight nicely and the fight got ruined by the cut that Jennings received from the laces of Brook's gloves. I would have liked to have seen how that fight would unfold and it was a very unsatisfactory finish. I wouldnt be shouting from the rooftops about a resounding win as it was far from it.

    As others have said, Brook needs a good test. I would like to see him rematch Jennings.

    Best test for Brook is Alfonso Gomez.

    i have the feeling brook has a pretty bad chin. look at who he's been matched with on 1 side he calls khan out saying he has a glass chin whilst he himself has been matched almost exclusively with fighters with low KO percentage. i reckon maidana would easily do a job on him.
    brook would lose that fight, ppl remember gomez for getting twatted against cotto, he's a better fighter then people give him credit for, i think brook would go in thinking he'd blow him out and once he realises that gomez isnt going anywhere he's ****ed.

    He should be so lucky, he doesnt deseve it, beat someone with a pulse or if hes feeling daring a decent fight at euro level before he starts chasing after belts. As has been said before, he hasnt been tested at any sort of world level yet, lets judge him when hes done something.

    i think a lot of the heat that Brook takes is a little much. The nonevent with jennings didnt give any answers and Frank feeding him softly afterwards lead to more rumblings. I'm not exposed to as much hype as you guys though and Naz making claims about him beating Pac was a hoot. Ultimately he does not pick his opponents or tell others what to say about him though so thats why i think he is treated a little harsh.
