As he lay on the ground, blood pouring from a gash across his left thigh, British boxer Kell Brook's concern wasn't whether he would fight again. The reasons for the attack are unclear, but Brook said he was slashed through a muscle by a knife resembling a machete, and was left to die. Brook is already looking ahead to a potential fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. Brook is in the same star-studded division as WBA and WBC champion Mayweather and WBO champion Manny Pacquiao, who meet in Las Vegas on May 2.
