A report has emerged alleging that former world champion Kell Brook has split with his trainer Dominic Ingle.

Brook at present is in the middle of negotiations to land an Amir Khan super fight, back down at welterweight, so this has come a bit out of left field if true.

Boxing writer Michael Benson has highlighted the following:

❌ Kell Brook has reportedly split with trainer Dominic Ingle and is now considering a partnership with John Fewkes. [According to @WorldBoxingNews]

Ingle has maybe advised him not to take the Kahn fight cos of all the rehydration issues and brook has spat his dummy out? Just a thought
