Agree with Ray, only way Purdy would get a fight with Brook or Khan is if he had the belt to basically hand it over to them.. Shame he couldn't make weight but I always thought he would fight it hard after the last fight and the fact he didn't have a full training camp.

It's a damn site more then he's ever dreamed that he would make. And I suppose Khan's another option, another big imaginary pay day for him. I still don't know about that huge jackpot without the belt, the belt is the selling point for him at the moment, right now he is just another Gary Lockett, Gavin Rees and many others.

(1) that's not a huge payday like Hearn seem to be talking about (2) Hearns was referring to the winner facing Khan on the 7th of December It's a damn site more then he's ever dreamed that he would make. And I suppose Khan's another option, another big imaginary pay day for him.

He'll get a rematch or a big fight with Kell Brook with or without the belt. But he's not going to win so that's irrelevant. (1) that's not a huge payday like Hearn seem to be talking about (2) Hearns was referring to the winner facing Khan on the 7th of December

How? Even if he wins he doesn't get the belt.. He'll get a rematch or a big fight with Kell Brook with or without the belt. But he's not going to win so that's irrelevant.
