Carson Jones to challenge Kell Brook in Sheffield

Kell Brook has announced that he will fight American Carson Jones in Sheffield on July 7.

The British fighter will face Jones in a world title eliminator for the IBF welterweight championship.

In his last fight in March, Brook beat Matthew Hatton by a unanimous points decision.

Brook told Sky Sports News: "I'm ready to get on the world stage now.

"I thought I was too nice against Hatton. Against Carson Jones you're going to see the nasty Kell Brook - you'll see me pushing the fight and being aggressive."

Brook is unbeaten in 27 professional fights.
