    Shawn Porter vs. Kell Brook - Almost Done For August

    Purse bids were set to take place tomorrow but Eddie Hearn and Golden Boy have asked to delay it because they are close to agreeing a deal.

    Fight is almost certain to take place in America - Hearn mentioned New York as a possibility. They're looking at dates in August.

    The most interesting part was that Hearn also said Porter-Brook would not be the main event and that it would be a part of a big show with some great fights put on by Golden Boy. He couldn't reveal what fights. Wonder what they could be?

    So can we end this talk about Brook not wanting the fight, ducking etc. etc. Do people not understand his the mandatory? The fight has to happen and is almost set.

      That is the first fight I thought of. Might be a co-feature or triple header. Hearn said "fights" so could be more than one other.

        Jessie Vargas has a set fight against Anton Novikov in August. No location yet.
        Thurman/Lucas

        Danny Garcia, Viktor Postol, Adrien Broner, Lamont Peterson, Herrera, and Thomas Dulorme all could use fights. I'm not sure who Postol or Herrera is promoted/manged by though, the rest are Haymon fighters I believe.

          Good, August tends to be a dead month in boxing.

            Maybe Scott Quigg vs Santa Cruz? Although I'm sure Hearn would have mentioned that himself.

              We don't even know who's with Haymon and whos with with GBP anymore. We're gonna have to wait and see.

              Hearn and Brook better ask for random testing.
