WBO 154lb champ Liam Smith targets Kell Brook | Boxing News

WBO junior middleweight champion Liam Smith (22-0-1, 12 KOs) has called for a domestic showdown with IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook (36-0, 25 KOs) after he’s dealt with Predrag Radosevic on June 4 in Liverpool in the third defense of his world title. “I’m going to be brutally honest,” said Smith. “Kell Brook is the fight I want. I would bite your hand off for that fight. Kell is a nice lad and I get on with him but it’s a fight that people would love to see.

“Frank [Warren] made an offer and started the ball rolling. If they were keen on that fight they could have easily had it. Don’t talk about dominating 147lbs and 154lbs and then fight an opponent at 140lbs. If you’re going do it do it and fight one of the champions at 147lbs or 154lbs!”



Watch Brook take this fight instead of a Spence fight



He must be referring to Kell Brook vs AB:heh:

this was on bounce I think and a lot people missed out on this one. this was a foty candidate too but I think warren was robbed.

cant wait for the next one. is a date set yet?


Yep. It's the Co-Main of the PBC Chicago card with Fonfara vs Joe Smith Jr in the Main & Erickson Lubin vs Daniel Sandoval in the opening fight:ehh:


June 18th at 8:30pm et on NBC:obama:


i was the only that was gung ho about that card (surprising how that happens considering my views on PBC)..i had to prod @Newzz to create the thread for that card lol..its a top 3 PBC card for sure and the best of the PBC on Bounce cards that have aired IMO


This is true:salute:


I didn't wanna make a thread because alot of the brehs don't have Bounce TV:manny:


Luckily, the rematch is in Primetime this time:banderas:

Also, Warren hasn't fought at all since facing Payano on June 16th 2015. He's going into the rematch with a year and 2 days ring rust....hopefully AB & Robert Easter spar with him to keep him sharp and Mike Stafford implements a similar gameplan to the 1st fight.

Don't need him to be rusty. He fights too sparingly though:snoop:

I don't know.:manny:

Payano refused to run it back at first. When I was at the Broner vs Allakhverdiev fight, Warren announced he was facing Payano next in late November 2015....but nothing happened.

Then Payano vs Jaime McDonnell was ordered by the WBA...but nothing happened again.

Now we're here, with 2 fighters who last fought 10 months ago against each other, rematching each other. Hopefully the fight might start off as Round 13:ohlawd:

Payano vs Warren 2....and we get to see it in HD this time @patscorpio :heh:

Bounce and their non-HD broadcasts:scusthov:

So I'm hearing Oscar offered GGG a 90/10 split :sas1:

If it's really about the belt, then he should just accept the offer right? :sas2:

I'm no GGG fan really, but it gotta be either or? I think it's fair for him to have various motivations....:manny:
