"I'm not gonna lie I was not expecting that type of performance from Kell. Dominance from round one until it finished. He's proven tonight that he still has the spice and now I want to see how spice he can get with me. We've had our back and forth over the years. I didn't think he had what he showed tonight. I didn't think he still had that. Now it's a challenge. Now I wanna get in there and see if he can do what he did there with me."

Kell Brook put on a dominant display against his foe Amir Khan. In a one-sided beating, Brook dominated Khan for six rounds before securing the TKO victory. Chris Eubank Jr. himself is coming off a dominant win over Liam Williams. 'Next Gen' put on a clinic against the Welshman to secure a unanimous decision victory.

He now has his eyes set on Kell Brook in another domestic clash. The biggest criticism Chris Eubank Jr. has faced is that he has not faced enough top-level competition yet. Many fans want him to challenge himself and take on someone outside the UK, one of the champions for example. However, it looks like Eubank Jr. wants another all-British battle.

"Listen that fight can happen. Like I said, I'm still in the high, I'm still buzzing. That'd work great for my career that's the only thing missing in my career. Everyone knows that I'm not a young spring ticking anymore. Imma sit down with me family, because me personally as a fighter, I've got plenty more left. But Imma sit down with me immediate family and just see if I should carry on or not."
