The daddy in and out of the ring

Happy family: Kell, Lindsey and little Nevaeh. PHOTO: LAWRENCE LUSTIG

LIFE is just a knockout right now for Kell Brook both in and outside the ring.

The Sheffield welterweight has one of the biggest fights of his career coming up against Matthew Hatton on Saturday March 17, after celebrating the birth of his first child.

Daughter Nevaeh - heaven spelt backwards - was born six days ago, weighing 6lb 8oz.

“My partner [Lindsey] came up with the name and I loved it,” said Brook, unbeaten in 26 bouts. “It was an unbelievable feeling holding the baby for the first time. It is the best thing that has ever happened to me.”
