Kell Brook will fight Argentine Hector Saldivia on Saturday, October 20 in final world title eliminator.

The welterweight will once again have the support of a home crowd, with the bout confirmed for the Motorpoint Arena Sheffield.

Brook said that he intends to improve on his last showing, a hard-fought points victory over tough American Carson Jones.
