Kell Brook wants to get a ‘second chance’Kell Brook is looking forward to getting a “second chance” in the sport as he gets ready to have his first clash since an attack in a nightclub where he suffered a stab in his leg, and white label sportsbooks are impressed by the fighter’s determination to return to action after what was a very nasty incident.

The world champion of the IBF welterweights is set to face Jo Jo Dan of Romania at home in Sheffield, in a fight taking place on the 28th of March – only six months following his attack.

The fighter did admit that the way back was a tough one, after he feared that he would never again be able to walk. His fans were also very worried, but saw that his determination to get better paid off – and very well.

Roma were able to advance with a win of 2-1 in a very intense match at De Kuip, in a meeting where two players for Feyenoord were sent away, ending in an aggregate win of 3-2.

“We’ve met Fiorentina three times already and I think tomorrow will be different to the other games,” said the manager.

“We need to think of this as a match lasting 180 minutes: that’s crucial if we’re to play well and go through. We have to play better than we did against Chievo [in Sunday’s 0-0 draw], but that shouldn’t be too hard.
