    A perfect fight for Brook would be Horn but it won't happen.

    Naaaah Brook is basically finished, he has lost interest in boxing, he knows he isn't the same as he was after having his face shattered twice, his heart isn't in it any longer.

    But there is still that one fight Hearn, Sky and Brook would be up for..

    I believe Him and Khan are going to try and con the public with a PPV fight in 2020.


    Two faded, past their best fighters charging £20 a time to British fight fan for a fight that should have happened 7-8 years ago.

    Assuming Brooke’s eye is healed and he can make weight, he destroys Mikey. Mikey is a great fighter but that fat ass Welter version doesn’t scare any natural 147 pounders. Mikey is moving back down to his natural weight which is great for boxing potentially. He has no business at 147 unless he’s fighting another 135 pounder who got fat.

    Mikey Garcia is a very good fighter, lots of heart and skill, the question here is, can he hit hard enough to make Brooke respect him? He was terribly beaten by Errol Spence. Both Golovkin and Spence both did a number on Kell Brook's face, and won. This older edition of Brooke would defeat Garcia by decision, much like when Kell defeated Shawn Porter. Mikey does handle 140 lbs better.

    Brook is too big for Mikey.

    Brook if he can make the weight good (ibf hydration clause not in affect) be to powerful for mikey. Kell has always had a very solid chin, once garcia again tastes power of a powerful 147 fighter he will go in survival mode.

    I still think brook is good enough, the vibes from his camp point to him not being finished as people say. The zerafa fight let's be honest was a uninterested fighter who just was flat and we need him to see him again to see any signs of serious decline.

    Brook isn't serious about his career.

    He fought once in 2017.

    Twice in 2018.

    And its been over a year since his last fight.

    He got fixated on the Amir Khan fight and once upon a fight, circa 2013-2015, Eddie Hearn's reputation as a promoter depended on delivering that fight. Eddie has moved on from it while Brook is getting fat and waiting for that phone call from Eddie.....

    Khan was never serious about that Brook fight until it was an absolute last resort for him to cash out. Those warning signs should have been recognised immediately and Kell should have moved upto 154lb. Hearn would have gotten him a title shot.

    Brook did a check-mate on himself.....
