    Is kell Brook, really a 1/9 shot, that's what the turf accountants have him marked up at, i think that's really short,
    and 13/2 Jones is massive

    i think Brook will win but not as easy as that suggests

    Ridiculous odds really

    Will be a tough fight, although think Brook will win.

    Tonight could be the first time we see Brook take a punch - we have no idea if he has a chin yet!

    You're tempting me to have a flutter ....... But I backed Mathew Hatton so what do I know?

    Brook isn't the big puncher he thinks he is to be fair. Backing Jones by stoppage and Brook on points could be sensible?

    That's the way i feel too, i think Brook could out class him but not knock him out, so for me he'll do him on points, but then again can he take a punch, you've got it spot on pal

    Brook really fancies this fight, he is well up for it.
    I was talking to his trainer last week and he reckons Kell will knock him out and says Brook`s chin is far better than Khan`s.
    Hope he is correct.

    Brook was saved by the bell in the 12th round

    Another 60 second and I think there would have been a knockdown.

    Carson Jones was tough, but I wonder if Khan would have had as much trouble with him?

    Bloody good scrap though!
    Good match up, more of that needed in boxing.

    Khan would batter him to pieces in less than 3 rounds.
