We all know how Eddie Hearn goes on about how a Brook vs Khan fight, sells out Wembley Stadium. Kell Brook has a strong fanbase etc, bla, bla bla.
Well if Khan and Brook do fight, and Team Brook want a massive purse like 45/55 or even 50/50, then they need to prove that they can hold up on thier side of the bargain, which will be to sell 40,000 of 80,000 tickets for the potential fight.
Kell Brook is a so called World Champion. He is fighting a unification fight. He is going to fight on PPV in the UK, and has the biggest hype machine and advertiser in the UK backing him in Sky TV, who will no doubt heavily hype this fight.
So why doesn't Eddie Hearn hold the Brook vs Vargas fight at the O2 Arena in London, and see whether or not Kell Brook, a guy on the verge of becoming a unified champion of the hottest division in boxing, can even sell out 20,000 seats in the capital city of London.
For all the Yanks out there who don't know how far Sheffield is from London, it takes 3 hours on a car, and 2 hours by train which is not far at all.
But will Kell Brook's loyal Sheffield fans travel 2/3 hours to see him fight?
This is Kell Brook's time to prove that he is a draw. Vargas is the biggest name that he can potentially fight in the Uk after Khan. Thurman, Porter, Garcia, Bradley etc...will never travel to the UK.
