Brook's fans must be bankrupt by now. I wonder of there are fans who booked for LA, Detroit and Atlantic City?

He should be stripped of his mandatory status if he can't fight on May 18th.

Did the foot injury occur when he stepped off the scales?

It is a bit suspicious in my opinion. Im not totally convinced Brook fancies the job against Alexander. He'd rather fight the likes of Saldivia and Matthew Hatton

Was a story in one of the papers I think but Hearn has since mentioned it on twitter saying the foot is being looked at and they will provide more details then.

I don't know what's going off but I do know that Kell wants Alexanders title badly and to say he doesn't fancy it is ridiculous. Proper gutted if this doesn't come off again was booking this weekend.
WTF ....If it is another injury it will be a massive head fornicate for Kell. Cant fornicating believe it.

Kell can win this fight why would anyone suggest he would not be up for it !
Devon has clearly faced the better opposition but his "performance" against Bradley shows what Kell needs to do and that is break his heart and want it more than he does. He lost against Matthysse and Kotelnik but was saved by some poor judging.
Seriously gutted if this fight doesn't go ahead - seen some pictures from Twitter of Kell and he looked in seriously top condition.

I hope Jonny and Adam are as harsh and disrespectful of Brook as they were of Alexander when they interviewed him at Rees v Broner. Knobs.

The thing is, Hearn said Brook could probably have made the January date but they asked for a postponement because they were worried about his weight and when he twisted his ankle, it meant he couldn't do roadwork for two weeks. Now they might be looking as being pushed to one side as chances are, if Brook pulls out for a second time, Alexander will get his pick of alternative opponents.

I'm not suggesting Kell doesn't want it. For some reason (and I have no idea what) it just seems a bit coincidental (injuries by both, not just Brook).

Why would he not want that fight? Did he also make Alexander get injured last time?

Fair enough pal
There is an undercurrent of corruption in our sport/business anyone is well within their right to be suspicious.
Kell got so far on natural ability and if honest didnt live the life.
Hence Carson Jones very nearly ruined the party but since then
he has sacrificed and trained like a fighter with his aspirations needs too.
As a result he is more than a match for Devon IMO.He wants it badly like i said i dont have a clue whats gone off but he must be injured or he would fight.
Unless there is more to it and we dont know and may never find out i am gutted as Atlantic city was very much do able as a fan .
