Both seem untested but people have been going on about Brook for ages, do we all assume he wins comfortably or has anyone seen anything in Jones to suggest this is a good fight.
Take it Brook is ready as he presumably knew he would get the chance of a vacant title shot even when McIntyre pulled out, but how ready is Jones.
Will the southpaw stance give Brook any problems or is he just that good?

Re: BROOK v JONES - VIEWS
I will be incredibly shocked if Ezekiel doesn't win this fight inside the distance.
Re: BROOK v JONES - VIEWS
I thought you might say that but what I am after is reasons why really, having only seen snippets of Kell, I would value your opinion of him as you are obviously much closer.twenty six wrote:I will be incredibly shocked if Ezekiel doesn't win this fight inside the distance.
What do you or does Kell think of Jones, has he anything to trouble your man?
Re: BROOK v JONES - VIEWS
I think Kell will win by KO. Kell is underrated IMO.

looked ok.
nothing special though.
bit too upright for me.
Re: BROOK v JONES - VIEWS
Jones reminds me of a very poor Pavlik with no power at all - he's accurate, fast and is very upright. Although he seems to be lacking in stamina.

Re: BROOK v JONES - VIEWS
Ezekiel has been preparing for Kevin, and to be fair, Jones getting the job isn't a problem. Their styles are very similar.
I can only say what I see - and that is that Kel is a very talented young man.
I'm lucky to have seen it in the gym - both with Dave Coldwell, and before with Brendan.
He's been sparring in Europe in preparation for the McIntyre fight and getting some great reviews from people who know exactly what they're talking about.
From within boxing circles, it's been known for a few years now that Brook was very good.
Sadly within the ring, matters have not progressed as hoped for, for numerous reasons, not least of which has been the consistant withdrawal of opponents.
It's his time now, his chance.
Upto him to seize it and move forwards to bigger things.
He's given Rhodes his share of problems in sparring !
