    Brook doesn't have a hope of stopping N'dou.

    Nor does anyone else below middleweight, with the possible exception of Pacquiao.

    Cotto and Witter could hardly put a dent in him years ago, nor Cintron and Alvarez more recently.

    It's not a slight on Brook to suggest that he won't get N'Dou out of there. If he did it would be very impressive indeed - unless we see a British stoppage.

    Brook can box very nicely at times but in a way that similar to cleverly, he has a shitty defnce and gets hit far too much

    Agreed. N'dou is tough as nails. This is a good fight for Brook. People forget he's only 25, he has plenty of time for big fights down the line. He still has a lot of learning to do and N'dou is the perfect fight for him right now.

    Lovemore's a recognised boxer and he's someone who I reckon Kell would look good against. If Kell can stop him in impressive fashion (as I think he will) then it puts his name out there and will hopefully lead to BIGGER contests.

    Kell is gonna be a Legend IMO (if he can get the fights)

    Decent set up, should go the distance; N'dou can take a punch that's for sure!

    Excellent work from Matchroom. They have got brook and barker in with excellent tests in their first fights which will really benefit them should they come through them. N'dou especially is a fight Brook should come through if he is finally to live up to his potential. There's a chance he will shine or he will look poor so we should be in a much better position to judge his future after this one

    Yes this is excellent work from matchroom as they seem to have the fans view as their spearhead

    Good fight for Kell especially if he wins it. We'll hear "I beat the man Hatton (matty) couldnt". Might set up a pretty good domestic fight

    Alverez, a decent punching LMW couldnt do that. All we no about Brook's power is that he packs to knock out Afrobums. Im not saying Matty wins, but the lad can take a shot.

    Like Beeston suggest below, It could be a british type stoppage.You're right N'dou is tough as nails but i think brook's accuaracy good timing and decent power could be enough to force a stoppage.How old is Lovemore, got to be atleast 38.:good
