Middleweight boxer Kell Brook will undergo surgery for a broken eye socket which he suffered during last night's title defeat to Gennady Golovkin.
Brook sustained the injury in the second round of the bout on his way to a first career loss over five rounds in the London O2 arena.
After the fight, he retweeted the X-Ray image of the injury.
