if brook is not careful he will find himself about to retire without barely one meaningful fight, .like calzaghe eventually getting the courage to fight once he heard Kessler got injured. to be fair, at least kell has a fully recognised title unlike joes 90s wbo one. the stabbing also gives kell a leg to stand on, if you forgive the sharp pun.
the voice of reason...... not every fight is going to be against number 1 in rankings..nobody does that...if he fights rios next that will be porter(champ),dan (mandatory),gavin(rank 4) then rios...that is not bad at all imo
