Are you off your fcking nut' Do you think brook being a top ingle fighter from a kid' has no movement or skill' just raw power' you are delusional' kell would absolutely destroy him.

I'll take Brook over Gavin for me.

Brook wins.

it would be a good fight and kell has called for it but the silence from gavin and mr wa rren has been deafening. i personally think that kell would walk straight thru gavin but i am biased.

gobbles - i know you are a knowledgeable fella. just curious as to why you back gavin so emphatically? interested to know your reasoning ...

Sorry I am being a doughnut. I don't think my keyboard likes Frank W a r r en! I know Kell is with Matchroom, it is on every other post!!!!

I was referring to Jennings.

People read to much into a bad performance IMO

Groves v Anderson was shocking and because of that people had written him off against degale and then he beat him boxing really well

Gavins last fight want that impressive agreed but he is an amazing talent and although I couldn't pick a winner as kell brook is relatively untested also, all I'm saying is don't write Gavin off

Boring fight I reckon. Brook probably edges a decision.

I don't mind who I fight like I always have said if I keep winning titles will come an if its kell I fight next so be it

Calm down dear, it's only an opinion

all i will say is it looked to me, against jennings, that kell needed to get his feet set to punch and was waiting a bit to do so.

and that Gavin would give him a tough time getting his feet set for power shots, keeping him a little bit offbalance. IMO

I think Gavin should take on Jennings and see where he is at. Both are with allegedly. It would be easy to make although Jennings is slightly delusional thinking he should be fighting for world titles.

yet jennings gets opportunities (cotto, brook) and puts in really negative performances. not sure i'd want this.

i think you're badly underestimating a close decision loss to Mutley and a win over Ross Minter, in terms of Jennings' formline...

Gavin isn't ready for Brook yet.

It would appear that his team agree with you. They withdrew him from an English title contest with Amar and are now looking towards Curtis Woodhouse.

Whats the point in signing to fight Amar though when you can almost guarantee he will pull out? Woodhouse will be an easy fight for him but can see the promoters angle, ex Birmingham footballer, etc.

Kevin Mcintyre had made Matchmakers aware month ago that he would fight Gavin if hes looking for welterweight fight.

hes in Prizefighter now but July would have been ideal

Kell would pick Gavin off for around 4 rounds then stop him IMO but can't see w@rren riskin his little sweet pea with kell ;;-)

Frankie Gavin would outbox Kell once he had adjusted to his speed - all round better fundamentals and better boxing skills.

I have always thought Brook carries his chin to high - Gavin would find it.

I'm not convinced that Frankie is a bone fide welter where as Brook looks like he has to make weight to get to 10 stone 7. Gavin is talented and has some lovely moves, he also has power; not shocking KO power but he hits hard enough from the looks of it. Frankie is not running around the ring jabbing away, every bout I've seen him in he is pressing the fight. If he punched light the other fella would push him back and walk him down.

At welter I imagine Kell Brook would be too strong and hit too hard; at light welter or catch weight (say 144) then Frankie is in with a real chance. He hit Muttley some lovely body shots and I imagine Brook would expend more energy actually throwing shots than Muttley.

I'm not an Frankie Gavin fan but he would nail Amar! I've seen Amar and he is pony!

I disagree my friend, he is not pony. He is rangy, slippery and a difficult awkward fighter.

He has been a pro for 8 years now and IMO there are half a dozen UK welterweights better than him.

Maybe he is so slippery they can't get him into the ring? October 2009 was his last outing.

I would back him to beat Brook right now.

But Amar is unorthadox, pretty strong and slippery - not a great recipe to showcase a fighter; It's likely the reason he hasn't fought too often of late either.

.

amar certainly big at the weight and extremely awkward but i would guess there's more to it than that behind him fighting twice in 4 years.....

I know Adnan and have his number. He is still working out, I spar sometimes with his brother Mo and Adnan is without a promoter and elimnator fights have fell through of late up in scotland etc.

He wants to fight, believe me.
