think about the exposure Jack's got though :obama:
thats the problem..jack vs groves was an exposure and a dope fight on floyd-berto undercard...very little was talked about it

jack vs bute - no one really talked about it

jack this year prolly fought the best or second best fight of the year against degale...while among the major cards that have aired it has the lowest rating numbers

i want floyd and ellerbe to put more effort into building jack up as a fighter...and i just cant see it being done as the undercard to this fukkery

Kell Brook Alleged To Have 'Caused Havoc' on a Recent Flight

According to reported, former world champion Kell Brook has been quizzed by police for allegedly 'causing drunken havoc' on an easyJet flight from Liverpool to Barcelona.

The former IBF welterweight beltholder, 31, was allegedly swearing and shouting during the journey last month.

And there were even claims that he was smoking in the bathrooms, according to passengers on the flight.

James Robinson, 35, who witnessed the commotion, said: "Kell and his mate were drunk when they got on the plane and carried on drinking with booze they'd bought in the airport," according to the Daily Star.

He added: "They were loud and Kell's mate was throwing things around. Everyone was getting pretty annoyed."

The alleged flight trouble took place just weeks after Brook lost his IBF world welterweight title to Errol Spence Jr. at Bramall Lane in Sheffield. It was Brook's second stoppage loss in a row and sent his record tumbling to 36-2 with 25 knockouts. Brook held the IBF welterweight title from 2014 to 2017.

He said at the time: 'I'm gutted, devastated that in front of my own fans I've lost my belt.'

In 2014, the fighter suffered a horrendous machete attack.

He told Sportsmail at the time: "The blood was splurting everywhere... I thought I was going to die."

An airline spokesman told the Daily Star: 'easyJet can confirm that police met a flight from Liverpool to Barcelona on arrival at Barcelona due to two passengers behaving disruptively.'

A spokesman for the Civil Guard in Barcelona added: "The Civil Guard attended the arrival area for the flight and contacted the personnel on board who informed us that there were two difficult passengers, in a drunken state, bothering passengers during the flight and even smoking on board during the journey. Neither of them was arrested."

Brook's management has not responded to requests for comment.

:mjlol: Kell Booze


and then the comeback

Trainer: Brook Has Low Moments, But in Better Place Than Khan!

In the last few days, former welterweight champion Kell Brook (36-2, 25 KOs) has received some unwanted publicity. There was numerous headlines claiming that Brook and some of his friends were allegedly intoxicated, smoking and creating problems on a plane bound for Spain.

Over the years, Brook has had his fair share of controversial headlines.

But so has Brook's career rival, former champion Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs).

Last week, Khan dropped a bombshell on social media when he announced that he was divorcing his wife and claimed that she was having an affair with heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.

Brook's head trainer, Dominic Ingle, admits that his fighter goes through his fair share of rough times outside of the ring - but he says it's still a lot better than where Khan currently is.

“Kell’s life might be a big upside down, but it happens. Look at Amir Khan, it’s imploding on him, why does he wash his dirty linen in public? Kell has low moments. But he is definitely in a better place than Khan," Ingle told The Star.

Brook has been stopped in his last two fights, and suffered fractured orbital bones in his last two fights with Errol Spence and Gennady Golovkin. He is expected to return by the end of the year, as a junior middleweight, but Ingle is not positive on whether or not the Sheffield fighter will return to the ring.

"I might be wrong but Kell might want to prove to himself or others that he can still do it. But on the other hand, he might think he has had a good run, he’s 31 and made plenty of money.. he’ll deal with it in his own way," Ingle said.

Brook has promised to make some big changes. Ingle doubts those changes are pertaining to the corner.

"I don’t think Kell means that he is thinking of going somewhere else to train, maybe he’s referring to a change in lifestyle, possibly retiring or going up a weight," Ingle said.

"I have trained Kell from a kid to a world champion. It is not something I am concerned about. I don’t go chasing him down. When he is in training camp he does what I tell him 100 percent. We have a mutual agreement that that happens. But outside camp he does what he wants until he rolls into the gym, next time, to prepare for his next fight."

:russ:

they can't get off Khan's dikk :heh:

Khan went up and lost to Canelo, Brook wanted to be even braver jumped 2 divisions for less money to get his ass beat by GGG

then one of them causes a drunken havoc on a flight but the other doesn't let him steal the spotlight so he breaks up with his wife publicly on social media with accusing another boxer with fukking her. :ohlawd:
