The fighters are stylistically poles apart. Kell Brook will want to dictate the fight in the middle of the ring whilst teeing off with those combinations, where as Frankie Gavin is a counter puncher, punishing opponents when they miss.
Styles make fights, but Gavin has to use his awkwardness to frustrate and dishearten Brook, and employing a negative style that if is effective will frustrate viewers at ring side and at home.
Similarity in the rounds boxed department are deceiving, considering the caliber of fighters that Brook has faced compared to Gavin, and this could be a telling factor of the fight.
Small differences in height and reach advantage will mean they will not prove a decisive factor in the outcome of the fight.
