Kell Brook close to WBO Title fight

champ this and champ that blah blah blah

 

My mother could do a better top 15 than that :-(

I like Brook but how the hell is he #1 when he's never boxed anyone in world class, or even the top 50?

 

Stick him in with Clottey. See what he's got.

 

Gutted that a) The Jennings fight aint happening and b) Matthew Hattons euro champ as that shoulda been the next stop for Kell imo. As Brawler said he has no experience at world level. Gomez fight would be good, Kell good outbox him quite easily plus due to the contender series and Gomez having faded names on his record it would be good for Kell's exposure stateside. Its scary that if Clottey pulled out of the Pacquaio fight that Kell woulda been 1st in line to step in. Very talented fighter but 2 early 4 these titles even if they're nonsense

 

I think we will see Brook vs Gomes for the belt.

 

Just checked Saul Alvarez out.

He's a 19 year old Mexican with a 31-0-0 (23 ko) record, been fighting professionally since just after his 15th birthday. He sounds like a tough kid. What's even more surprising is that he's ginger. A ****in ginger Mexican! It's all wrong. I'd steer well clear.

 

He also looks about 8 years old. :roll:

 

lol

A ginger Mexican? Clearly the kid has got some mental genetics going on, i'd avoid him like the plague. I like Brook, he's good to watch and does a lot of things quite well. He needs some bigger tests though, someone to take him into the trenches a bit to see if he has the toughness. Too many fighters end up getting world title shots after 25 fights against no-marks and then end up getting exposed the first time they face someone genuinely world class because they simply haven't been schooled properly. I think Brook has the talent to be a belt-holder when the division cools down a bit, but he could end up getting turned over by someone nowhere near as talented but with the experience and toughness to get the better of him.

 

Lol yea hes nickname 'El Canelo' which is Spanish for Cinnamon!! Hes a very good fighter, got a good fight on Mayweather-Mosely undercard against Jose Miguel Cotto. His original opponent woulda been an easy nights work against a certain Matthew Hatton. Its early doors but the kid looks very talented. Mexico needs a new hero (aint coming from JCC Jr) this guy could be it.

 

Totally agree... Them rankings are shocking.

Kell Brook hasn't even fought for the Ero title yet and his best win came in against a guy Junior Witter, if my memory serves me right, knocked out in 4 rounds...

He looks like Ashley's from Corrie half-brother

 

I thought Hatton was the ginger Mexican? This kid needs his own gimmick.

 

Watched Alvarez once on youtube and thought he looked shite, even for a 19 year old he is all hype, Brook would smash him to pieces so cant see the fight happening tbh.

Clottey and Mike Jones are the only decent fighters of the whole 15, shocking.

 

just like brook in my humble opinion,all hype,the boy will get beat,and beat quite easy off a world class chappie,far far to open,and not that quick :good
