Kell Brook looking for warm-up bout

Kell Brook says that he will likely fight a warm-up bout ahead of a potential world-title clash with Shawn Porter.

Kell Brook has revealed that he will fight in a warm-up bout ahead of his IBF welterweight title clash with Shawn Porter.

The 27-year-old is number one contender for the American's strap, which he won from Devon Alexander in December.

However, the Sheffield fighter has heard rumours of a rematch between the pair, giving him the opportunity to sharpen his skills before a world-title tilt.

"There's still talks going on, but I'll be fighting maybe the middle or the end of March," he told Sky Sports News.

"I'm back in training. It's just a keep-busy fight for me if anything because I've got my eye on that world title fight.

"I just wanted to go for the world title fight, but Porter winning it off Devon, it has given him a little bit of extra time. I think he can get in a voluntary. I'm hearing that they're having a rematch."

Brook is undefeated in 31 fights.
