Kell Brook vs Hector Saldivia - This is it - Sky Sports Fight Thread

Should be a good night of boxing with the Brook/Saldivia fight being the eliminator for the IBF tying in with Alexander/Bailey on the USA card across the pond

Kell Brook v Hector Saldivia

Jamie McDonnell v Darwin Zamora

Robin Reeid v Kenny Anderson

Khalid Yafai v Scott Gladwin

Scott Cardle v Karim Aliliche

Martin J Ward v Ibrar Riyaz

David Howe v Hastings Rasani

Danny Phillips v Bill Smith

Tyrone Nurse v TBA

I reckon Brook-Saldivia will be a quick one. Looks like Saldiva can really punch, he was a bit unlucky against Ouali, he had him down and badly hurt but got caught trying to finish him off.

Under 6.5 rounds.
Brook by KO 1 (18/1) and KO 2 (14/1)
Saldivia by KO 1 (125/1) and KO 2 (100/1)

Good odds, I am tempted to have a flutter.

Both Brook and Saldivia have weighed in at 10 Stone 6 lbs a pound under the welterweight limit. Don't think there is much to read into this with Brook weighing in at just under 10/7 for his last fight.

I strongly recommend you do the complete opposite of whatever bet I put up. Trust me.

They'll either be a KO in round 3, a KO in round 7 or the fight will go the distance.

(Fenster is the biggest boc merchant that ever walked the earth. Fact.)

What channel is this fight on?

Does anybody know what time the main event starts tonight? Looking forward to seeing Brook in action, he looks in shape and hopefully can put on a performance tonight. It will be interesting if Brook performs tonight and gets a shot at the Bailey-Alexander winner. Still think Alexander might be a bit too much for Brook though, we will see after tonight anyway. I am looking forward to the Barclays card though, should be a great night of boxing.

Reid and Anderson in the ring now.

Reid needs to call it a day.

No shame in fighting for a British title at 41, but yeah his best days are firmly behind him, time to hang them up.

Anyone got a stream for brook fight?
Thanks

Only just got in so didnt catch the fight, might not have the full picture. Reid to me has always been the epitome of sturdy and to see him stumbling around like really bothered me :-\

Impressed by Yhafi.

It all started with a cheap shot from Lacy.

Reid was winning the fight until his age showed. Good to see him stopped on his feet though, don't think he's ever been turned into a drunk as he was at the end.

That Yhafi looks impressive. Although Johnny calling him "the new Roy Jones" means he'll be getting ironed soon

These two clearly weigh the same tonight

Good solid first round for Mcdonnell

It's like watching a Wlad fight

Just lost my bet.

come on the little fella!!!

Looks it but Bobby's going to get Gamache'd all the same in a minute

;D cunt

his ears look too big for his head

Right, Brook better KO this cunt inside 6 rounds, or get himself KO'd inside 6, otherwise he's pure shit. Fact.

black keith lemon

Very nice display by Brook.

Was that emma that just kissed him?

Now thats a jab

Brook made a huge mistake after the first knockdown by not understanding he's in a British ring, just charge them and it'll get stopped

Quality

I had a quid on Mario Lopez in the first and second round ;D
