I think this sky sports video interview is telling:

In the video Hearn states his intention to get Brook out again in November, then Khan next year.
Why not now?
Both guys are hot and there's no guarantee both would win their intermediate fights, especially if Khan is looking at Guerrero or Alexander.
Also if Brook is going to look for a soft-touch who is really out there that you could justify? It would have to be someone low risk if they want to postpone a big money fight with khan. Who is really out there? Julio Diaz doesn't mind coming over to the UK.
What do you guys think?
Khan is not hot right about now.
The collazo fight reestablished him as a credible name in world boxing. He brings a lot of money, trust me he's a desirable fight for any 147 pounder in the world.
Salka should be available by then
:rofl: now he has made his name against Danny!
Could be Josetio Lopez though, he's always game to take good beating.

JMM in November would be incredible but your looking at around 20,000 arena fight.
Big risk to ruin the Khan Wembley date.
Froch/Groves (Wembley) was May, Chisora/Haye (Upton Park) was July, Mitchell/Katsidis (Upton Park) was May and McDonnell vs Ceja (Doncaster) was May so you'd think arena fight in Nov/Dec.
It's cold over here in the winter y'know :crying:
What's the weather like outdoors in December up there? That's probably your answer. Can you do a fight at Wembley in December?
Nope but it could be done at the millennium stadium in Cardiff.
He said straight after the fight that they would do a defence in Sheffield and then look for the major fight.
If he can get a JMM or something before Khan it would be great.
The is the most idiotic comments ever! How can you duck someone who's been ducking you?
This is the most idiotic comment ever.
Because before Khan was number 1 and had something to lose in fighting Brook. Now Brook is the champion the roles have reversed.
It's pretty simple:smashfrea

Tim Bradley. His touch is so soft...
Probably because he wants to do an outdoor stadium fight.
Thing is Khan is trying to get Mayweather for May so the same problem will occur as last time Hearn wanted to make the fight.
