There’s never any need for hyperbole in the gladiatorial sport of boxing. It really is do or die for Kell Brook. At 33, he’s no spring chicken anymore, particularly by the kindergarten standards of the welterweight division.
His American opponent, Mark ‘The Bazooka’ DeLuca, has lost just once in 25 bouts, falling victim to an unlucky split decision defeat in 2018. He's never boxed outside of his home continent, in stark contrast to Brook who will enjoy the rapturous support of his hometown in the crowd.
Relive the 2018 epic between Brook and GGG.
This bout has been scheduled for Saturday 8th February.
The fight is taking place in Brook’s hometown of Steel City at the Sheffield Arena.
The bout will be broadcast live on Sky Sports in the UK and Ireland.
The ring walk for this main event should take place between 9pm-10pm.
