Sheffield, 35, was already facing two potential opponents after his six-round demolishment of Khan.

Eubank Jr., a contender for the middleweight title, and Benn, a welterweight prospect, were both pundits in Manchester, calling out Brook.

Sky Sports' Carl Froch, a veteran of all-British beef, told Brook to keep at welterweight alongside Benn and not to move up for Eubank Jr.

Froch, 44, stated to iFL TV that it was a more sensible fight. When I was speaking about Chris Eubank Jr., that's what I should say.

"The Conor Benn fight is my favorite, just for the size. Conor Benn is a man I respect. He's a great fighter, I believe.

"I believe the fight with Chris Eubank Jr is too big for him."

Brook, 35, was defeated by Gennady Glovkin, 39, in 2016 at middleweight.

Eubank Jr. was not able to reach an agreement with GGG and he was replaced by him. The grudge has continued ever since.

Unbeaten Benn is on a rise, building his record against older but falling campaigners.

Khan was devastated by his loss, and he promised Khan to pay it back.

Froch, who was 33 when he knocked out George Groves at Wembley in 2014, asked Brook to hang them up in the same way.

He stated that he wanted Kell Brook to retire immediately, at 100 percent.

"I believe one of the reasons that he was able stay in there was because of, and while I don't want anything to take away from his performance, it was due to the lack of what was coming from Amir Khan.

"That's why Khan must retire. It's absurd if he doesn’t. It's ridiculous.

"He cannot continue fighting; it is as simple as that. After that win, I would like to see Kell go.

"It was an amazing win, but if Chris Eubank Jr. is going to fight again, would it be Conor Benn or Chris Eubank Jr.? Conor Benn, simply because of his size.
