Bud will take on an equally experienced Brook, who is riding on a three-fight win-streak. Brook has an impeccable record of 39-2 with both his losses coming against credible opponents in the form of Gennady Golovkin and Errol Spence Jr.

After back-to-back losses at the hands of arguably the greatest of all time, Brook made a statement return against Sergey Rabchenko.

After a failed attempt at grabbing the middleweight gold against Golovkin, Brook ended up dropping the welterweight gold against Spence Jr. back in May 2017.

However, Brook is back in the title contention after almost three years. Late last year, he grabbed the vacant WBO Inter-Continental light-middleweight title with a 7th round TKO win over Mark DeLuca.
