Doherty-Brook doesn't seem like it will ever go ahead, Doherty pulled out after hurting his hand pulling a video out the machine or something didn't he?! I am afraid Doherty may have been a bit of a hype job, he has only faced two guys with winning records i seem to recall looking over his slate.

He's also beaten Karl Taylor three times.

he's fighting unbeaten Gary O'Connor on Saturday night, fully expect Tony to beat him handily over the distance. nice warm up for giving Brook a sound thrashing, dont you think?

After the hoorah when Tony turned pro , I was expecting great things it's been a few years now and still waiting for him to deliver. I think he does lack something.. and at times lacks commitment, Very debatable to get the nod over Tas Jones.

To me I think he would be better at light welter.

That said i've only seen kel brook a couple of times and he looked no world beater.

Lets hope Tony show's us what all the fuss was about!
