Is Kell Brook about to end his retirement? The Sheffield fighter, a former world champion at welterweight, has not been seen in action since February 2022.
Then, Brook settled one of the biggest rivalries in British boxing history when he put on a dominant display to score a very impressive stoppage over his domestic rival Amir Khan.
Announcing his retirement in the fight’s aftermath, Brook has been out of the ring for over a year, but his name continues to be linked to big fights including a battle with Conor Benn.
