Anyone who will actually give him a decent, well matched fight.

He's absolutly cruised it so far. :box:

he needs stepping up and he is more than willing to do this.

i think bienias would have been taken out early if he didn't cover up all night long. after 8 months out. clear out of some of the ring rust i think it was a decent work out.

john o'donnel is next for british and hennessey has won purse bids i believe.

Whilst I agree - its going to be bloody difficult matching Kel Brook as I believe he is that good - as long as people keep him focussed he could be very good indeed.

What about Alfonso Gomez? Big name in America, not a great fighter but half decent and I bet he is ranked fairly highly by a few of the organisations.

I think Gomez would be too tough. Still a great fight though. Hed be a good name though and still should be known from The Contender. wonder what type of purse he gets

Maybe someone that the public are interested in?

I've no issues with his talent, but he's gonna get nowhere finacially until they bring in a Matthew Hatton or at least an ex-world welter champ.

I'd like to see him fight Jennings, then someone like Jackiewicz or Zaveck, then move up to world level. Someone like Gomez would also be a good stepping stone as he is a big name but is still quite basic and very beatable.

i agree with the comment above - the key thing is that kell stays active - hopefully boxing every two months

if he does tht then the progression will come naturally.

in terms of domestc opponents only jennings or o'donnell would even test him. i hope he boxes one of them two, then a top european, then judah.

I think the Hatton vs Branco winner..... although cannot see this happening. Ndou would be another option.

He is certainly a massive prospect.

My concern is that if he doesn't get a well matched fight, which he comes through and wins, then he might "come unstuck" if he does move up to world level.

I think Kell looks the real deal.I genuinely believe he is our best hope for real world honours.O'Donnel and the rest would be outclassed.More impressed with Brook than i have been with anyone in a long time

I think he needs to fight someone who we all know i.e jennings, matt hatton to get the public more interested. I cant see khan/brook EVER happening. Khan knows hes got a glass jaw so theres no way he'd risk getting in the ring with kell.

Kells like a human bulldozer knocking everything down in his path. :TU:

expect JOD to fiddle as long as he can, then I assume once he's taken a really good shot he'll be well on his bike.

Brook needs to fight The Gomez to settle the score once and for all :box:

Jennings and Ndou sound good as well.

He is looking quality but am still reserving judgement on how far he goes, until i've seen him beat someone of a good standard.

If he fights and destroys the Gomez, then the world is at his feet!

Jennings or Hatton will do for now!
