You cant rush these guys and you dont need too. Khan got top billing because of what he did at the olympics not because of his natural ability. He got found out by a far inferior fighter because unlike these 2 he didnt learn a sufficent amount of in ring experience and got caught out.

British
Commonwealth
European
World contenders
World championship fight

Thats the true route to ultimate success!!
Who said anything about rushing them?? Kell Brook has won and defended the British title three times and has fought no one of note on the domestic scene, Jennings. O Donnell, Watson, Hatton, all these and other need to be considered before we talk about him being a multiple world champ. That's my point to many British fans get to excited with prospects and start making bold statements about them.

If kell brook was to tear through every single one of those names you`d still be able to answer the question of who exactly has he fought to suggest he can become a world champion and the answer would again be nobody

Fact is you can go on how far a fighter will go through natural talent alone and not from the fact that because he hasnt fought anyone of note he shouldnt be taken seriously.
If Kell Brook went through Watson,Jennings,O'Donnell and Hatton. That would be some acheievment and of course I would be saying this lad coudl go far, but like I say he has fought Lomax and Mcintyre who are both part time fighters who have been beaton multiple times by average opposistion.

You just seem to go way overboard with your claims these fighters will win various world titles, how many British fighters have won multiple world titles in the last 20 years??

These fighters who have pretty 20-0 records who hold British Commenwealth and European honours mean fuck all look at the ones we have had in the recent past.Your Alex Arthurs Nicky Cooks of this world, Who have been found out at a higher level, all im saying is I dont see anything in Brook and Cleverly to see them going on to be British legends.

I will also stick with my prediction Tony Bellew is a better prospect than Cleverly.
