Kell Brook will return in memory of Ricky Hatton

Andrew Karlov Oct. 20, 2025, 1:01 p.m.

Kell Brook (40-3, 28 KO) returns to the ring to honor Ricky Hatton. The former welterweight world champion has not entered the professional ring since February 2022, when he defeated Amir Khan by technical knockout in the sixth round.

Hatton was supposed to fight on December 2 in Dubai, but lost the most important fight of his life—with his own demons. His potential opponent, Eisa Al Dah (8-3, 4 KO), will now face Brook.

The fight will take place as planned in Dubai, just three months later, on February 13. All proceeds will go to the Ricky Hatton Foundation—a charity providing support to athletes with mental health issues.
