There aren’t many weaknesses in the armoury of Kell Brook, as his unbeaten record suggests. Concerns about his stamina that originated from his first encounter with Carson Jones, where he seemed to fade in the later rounds, were put to bed after going the distance with the rough and tough Shawn Porter.

However, he does have a tendency to raise his head when throwing the right hand counter. But whether Frankie Gavin has the power and spite in his punches to take advantage of this remains to be seen.

Frankie Gavin’s weaknesses are exceptionally damaging to his chances of winning. A distinct lack of power, and the omission of hard combinations means he will fail to gain the respect of Kell Brook.

He hasn’t faced anyone of the champions caliber either, and a defeat to gatekeeper Leonard Bundu doesn’t bode well when you’re about to clash with a world class opponent, so it’s simply a case of rising to the occasion for Gavin.
