Your support makes all the difference.Kell Brook intends to return to the ring on the Anthony Joshua vs Jarrell Miller undercard.
The former world champion is currently training in Fuerteventura, but is eager to finalise his next opponent and is pursuing a slot at Madison Square Garden.
Brook is willing to campaign at either welterweight or light middleweight with the ultimate goal of receiving a world title shot should he secure victory in his next fight.
"My Dad has been speaking to Eddie and it's looking like we're going to be added to the AJ bill. The Anthony Joshua bill in New York," Brook told Sky Sports.
"That would be a good box ticked. I've always wanted to box at Madison Square Garden and I'm looking for titles. I want some big names, so that's where we stand.
"It's a big bill, you've got AJ-Miller and Madison Square Garden. Every young fighter growing up, they always want to box at those kind of venues, as well as Las Vegas, MGM.
"I'm training towards that date and we're looking for big names in the near future. Wherever the excitement is. I can still make welterweight. I believe this fight will probably be at catchweight, between 154lbs and 147lbs. We have this fight and then we move to a big name."
Brook was an interested observer as Errol Spence Jr coasted to victory against Mikey Garcia last weekend and maintains he was winning their fight before the American broke his orbital bone and eventually stopped him in 2017.
"That fight is still there," Brook maintained. "He still mentions my name, he still would like to fight me, because he knows I was beating him.
"The people around me know what my training camp was like for that fight. I was far from 100 per cent, and I was beating him, and the eye went. I would love that fight again."
