IBF welterweight champion of the world Kell Brook signs up for extensive testing ahead of his upcoming title defence against American maestro Errol Spence Jr.

Brook will take on his mandatory challenger Spence in the coming months. A May date in the UK is expected to be formally announced and finalized in the near future.

The sport of boxing seems to be going through a phase of stricter drug testing at the moment around the world.

IBF world champion Brook has added his voice to the growing amount of athletes in boxing participating in random testing around the world with multiple organizations:

Good to see. No doubt Spence if he already hasn’t, will follow suit with similar soon. And what a fight it promises to be.

A match up between two of the very best welterweights in world boxing. The more experienced Brook against the young and upcoming lion in Errol Spence.

It’s a fight Spence has been waiting for some time now and as mandatory challenger, he doesn’t have long to wait now before he finally gets his shot at the title.

A genuine 50/50 fight between two explosive, big hitting, lethal finishers.
