    i dont think he's bottled it, but i think his team has

    they probably heard the date (may 28th) and thought 'Y'no what? **** this, too far away'

    Oh they've done the right thing, no doubt, but sometimes these things need pointing out to balance out the bull I so often hear about that fight between Haye/Klitschko.

    Your bang on. The Galarza fight was the one that showed he really does suffer from a nervy disposition. And this was against a no name. I remember Hearn basically saying in the interview afterwards that Brook had been shitting himself in the dressing room before the fight and that thank f*ck it wasn't anyone decent he was fighting:

    fighters who have to cancel fights after going through hard training camps are never the same fighters after it

    maybe Brook should retire, his best days are possibly behind him, and I'm being serious, if i was his opponent i would stand on his foot.

    I'll be watching the next ricky burns fight with interest also, he's had a few cancelled fights

    Not sure it does balance it out due to it being a different injury. But yeah there has been plenty of bollocks spoken about Haye/Klitschko since that night.

    Gutting for Brook.

    Like him or not he deserved his chance but I doubt Alexander will wait about for him.

    Seems Alexander is expecting to fight somebody on that date anyway:

    As is said previously,

    You dont have the same injury twice for the same opponent without their being either a serious physical or mental problem

    At least when Joe Calzaghe done that kind of thing he done it at the beginning of the camp. Kell Brook has done all that work for 3 training camps, only for the fight to be cancelled each time. We'll see in the next fight whether he looks the same.
