How the hell can Kell Brook be ready for a world title shot? The guy he just beat would of maybe been fine if Kell was in his first ten fights as a pro, Warren needs to pull his fucking finger out or we will have another Kevin Mitchell on our hands, Brook needs to be tested and quick O Donnell or Watson would be a step in the right direction, I think if he fights Jones next he gets fucked up.

Kell needs to step it up he is beating everyone with ease.

This fight tonight was just a timekeeper as the WBO sorts out what's happening with the title now Pacman's gone up another division. He's clearly not looking to go the European route, because a Matthew Hatton fight doesn't add anything much to him. Yes it might go the way of Kevin Mitchell, but if you don't put him in there you'll never know. I think he's got the skills and punches hard enough to hold his own at world level, which I think FW will step him up to.

The thing is mate he has been in with no one whatsoever, no one near world class the Jennings fight was a non event, he needs a couple of durable fighters who come to win not tomato cans like this fella, must be hard to get him fights as I think Warren is confident in him considering he has put De Gale in there with Smith after 15 rounds of pro boxing leads me to believe it aint for trying on Warrens part, but there is a handful of british guys who would test him but like you say he is on the verge of a world title shot and maybe that would effect his ranking, but Warren found out the hard way with Mitchell that you need more seasoning and more tests before stepping in at world class.

[skel1983]

Macklin is looking crap so far.

I agree his comp ain't been great but you can see the lad is special. I think he finishes Mike Jones inside the distance if they meet. He strikes me as someone who will rise to the occasion. I'm a big fan.

Maklin looks fucked here. Varon worth a few bob to stop him late?

[skel1983]

Anyone see Macklin getting stopped here?

Deffo mate I see Varon at this rate stopping him.

[Fenster]

Is this place running slow for everyone?

If Varon could punch Macklin would be done.

the site seems fine for me apart from nobody posting.

Macklin looks fucking awful tonight.

You can really see the difference between a genuine talent in Kell, and a decent domestic level fighter in Macklin.

[Fenster]

Kell won me money, Macklin just cost me money, so I agree Kell is a far more obvious talent

[OumaFan]

Is the Degale fight the main event?

[superheavyrhun]

Looked like Macklin went in there expecting to work for 4 or 5 rounds then get him out of there, and once he realised that wasn't going to happen he got disheartened and dropped his workrate. Looked poor, his guard was bad and he wasn't too clever in the middle rounds. Props to Varon though, he fought hard, if not always fair, and gave Macklin a big scare in there.

Clev up next, hopefully should be more straightforward.

Yeah, Degale v Smith is the last of the title fights in the running order tonight.
