Showtime Saturday JoJo vs Kell / Gonzalez vs Russell

[Master]

It will be good to see Kell Brook back in the ring as I think he wants to put on a. show and then ask for Khan next.

Brook said yesterday that he can't be bothered with Khan at all now this year as he simply sick to death of asking.

Interesting thing is that if Brook wins on Saturday then come May 3rd there will only be 2 belt holders in the division - Pac or Floyd and Kell Brook.

He's holding out for a mega unification fight later in the year obviously and good for him.

Khan could have seriously shot himself in the foot here if Brook gets the winner of Floyd v Pac

I watched some of Dan on youtube. Looks like he wants to come forward, active, southpaw but didn't look like he hit very hard and didn't like going backwards. Seen he's been down a few times too.

Brook is probably the biggest/strongest welter in the world at the moment. Brook stoppage between rounds 7-12 is 5/2.

Yeah Brook should get a stoppage if he hits as hard as he claims.

Interested the most in Etches-Khomitsky.

Khomitsky might be a hundred years old and have a dozen losses but he's hard as nails. His only legit stoppage came against GGG. He gave Martin Murray two tough fights - had him staggering around like a drunk in the 1st one - and sploshed Frank Buglioni. Was giving Stieglitz an argument before bizarre glove incident ended it.

Not bet yet but...

Etches PTS - 7/4
Khomitsky win - 11/4

Yeah Dans chin is a little dodgy and Kell throws hard. His jabs remind me of Lewis's. Fricken jackhammer.
Kell has to keep his nervous energy in check or risk blowing his wad. At home, first defense and coming after a layoff do to a violent attack. The emotions will raise the room temp.

What makes this interesting is the fact that JoJo is a southpaw and fast. Shame about his lack of pop. I doubt it goes past 8 or 9 but Dan makes it interesting I think. I personally think Brook is going to take over the division if given the opportunity to do so and if Jojo makes it 12 I'll consider it a national victory.
