Brook-Spence conference called

IBF champion Kell Brook and Errol Spence Jr will attend a press conference on Wednesday as speculation continues about a date and venue for their fight.

The Sheffield man is due to defend his IBF title against mandatory challenger Spence Jr and boxing fans are eagerly awaiting details about the welterweight clash.

Brook is stepping back down to the 147lb division after his courageous defeat to middleweight king Gennady Golovkin last September and will face a dangerous opponent in Spence Jr.

The American carries a 21-fight unbeaten record, with 18 knockouts, and has vowed to "jump on" Brook if he displays any vulnerabilities after the Golovkin fight.

But Brook began his training camp in Spain weeks ago and is confident he will successfully come through the fourth defence of his IBF title.

'The Special One' has already ruined the unbeaten record of American Shawn Porter when he claimed his world title in 2014.
