Kell Brook

[Vendettos]

Kell Brook has had a lot of criticism recently, and rightly so. He seems untested and seems to be on the slow path. He has been criticized for the fact that he doesn't have a catalog of great names and that he can't punch at a decent level, struggling to stop fighters like Matthew Hatton and Carson Jones, fights that he dominated.

So I watched Kell Brook vs Hector Saldivia last night and I am still not impressed, although this time it's not really Special K's fault. He was in against a fighter 41(32)-2(2)-0 and it seemed set to be a testing fight. First round Brook dominates and floors Saldivia with a right Uppercut. Round 2, dominates him again. Round 3 KO's Saldivia with a jab.

I'd like to say that Kell was great, but unfortunately he wasn't. Hector Saldivia just didn't show up, which is a shame because his quality of opponent has been fairly decent so I expected better.

The commentators disappointed me, saying things like "Kell Brook has answered all the questions here", I don't believe he did, the fight looked to be one that could ask him questions, but instead it just proved to be a fight that shows he needs to move up and maybe fight someone with a good name.

It seems we'll just need to wait bit longer to see what happens when Kell Brook is tested!
