a kell brook win i bid £100 and to be foght in my garden

[Counter-puncher]

cool. Kell wins by brutal KO unless JOD suddenly realises that at his height boxing from the outside behind a jab is the way to go.

[danfoster]

i would be very surprised indeed if john o'donnell ever got in the same ring as kell brook - or more to the point, i'd be very surprised if mick hennessey ever let him.

[THEBUTCH]

I don't doubt O'Donnell will take the fight in a heartbeat, but Hennessy has been very quiet on whole subject of Kell Brook.

Time will tell.

well if that's possible then I'm prepared to go up to £150 so that's your dreams up in smoke mate, however, should my bid turn out to be successful you are more than welcome, for a reasonable price, to spectate the fight from my shed roof....or ringside as it is currently being re-labelled

I can see this is going to get ugly Adam......listen, I've got a Sara Lee double chocolate fudge cake in the freezer and £3.67 in change if you, ahem..."step aside".
More than a reasonable offer IMO.

[Chambers2]

After it looks like Cleverly Vs McIntosh has been signed, it gives me hope that this will as well.

Kel Brook to win by stoppage IMO, but it's a decent test

Time will tell.

kell brook is a very good fighter, and i am sure he would give o donnell alot of trouble,
but you have to favour o donnell to win on points, as he is a top class boxer.

I honestly cant see anything here other than a Brook win by KO, possibly in the mid to late rounds. If this fight comes off then after this fight I think Brook may move on to a Euro title. I think Brook can go further than Domestic level, and look good doing it also

[alexpaterson]

Brook will KO him O'Donnell could give him problems if he boxes but i still think Brook would KO him

[n1ebf]

i thought ODonnell would make easier work of Watson...so on that basis I'd have to lean toward Kell here. Brook probably hits harder than Watson (who in turn hits harder than ODonnell)...and yet ODonnell saw it as a good idea to engage Watson in a punchout at times......he could not afford to do this against Brook IMO, even though, it has to be acknowledged, ODonnell had Watson going a couple of times when Watson was gassing.
I would still like to see Brook in with better quality opposition, although looking at the ease with which he is cutting through some still quite solid fighters, you can't help thinking he could cut it at a higher level. I'd like to see either of these fighters get a shot at Matthew Hatton in the near future, can't see it though.

[SOUTHPAW]

Brook by early ko too strong and hits way too hard for o'donnell

[metropol]

I have to go with kell on this one , o donnell seems to have a great array of skills but does get tagge4d and nearly came undone in his last fight

[glahn]

Don't think O'Donnell will want any part of this. Brook would most likely stop him.

maybe that (kell's power)could work to JOD's advantage, or at least make him start to box in the way that suits his particular frame/skillset/lack of his own concussive punch. maybe the only reason he traded with Watson was because he lacks brook's concussive power. maybe he'll box much more cautiously if in the ring with kell. i'd like that to be the case but somehow i doubt it.

[emma]

Id bet £100 on O'Donnell pulling out.

I can't see anything other than a Kel Brook KO if the fight comes off. Kels our best semi-prospect at the mo, he definately wins world titles IMO, if he can keep his new found discipline

[Spud]

Kel Brook - KO in a canter!!!

[madmick]

would be a good contest,.where would the risk be for fw though does he not have a hand in both boxers?
dont think he will want the o'donnell fight to happen as the belt could end up in the hennessey camp!

[neil hibbert]

deffo ko for brook

[danfoster]

this fight will not happen as hennessey wouldn't let o'donnell in the same ring as kell

kell should be out again next month but until formal announcement made can't say who the opponent will be
