This is true. We'll fight Thurman, then it's Brook-Dan, Brook-Gavin, Brook-Rios.
Typical Hearn.
Thanks for the reminder doe. :boxing: My Brook bashing will resume.
Fans need to be more active and vigilant, the media in particular need to learn to unleash follow up questions, not just absorb these people's BS, ie, have you talked to Haymon, what have you done so far to make the fight happen, etc.
Hearn and Haymon have a good working relationship. You'll see a ton of cross-promotion with them in the future
I remember an end of year interview IFL did with Hearn in 2013 i think where he said he was looking forward to some co promotion shows with Haymon in the UK and the US so that looks like it's starting to pan out.
Maybe Joshua could be in line too to set up a Wilder clash.
If Floyd is actually dropping his belts then Thurman is instantly the WBA's (Super) Welterweight Champion since he already holds the 'Regular' belt.
i think the "super title" will remain vacant if floyd drops it, walters lost his on the scales, and cuellar still regular, not super, i think.
When the DeGale announcement was made i immediately thought Brook will probably be next.

Kell should beat him on points, keith loads up too much and runs around too much wasting energy. I would back Khan, Brook and Porter all to beat Thurman also.
I would NOT be surprised to see another big name UK fighter signing with Haymon in the very near future.— FIGHTHYPE.COM (@fighthype) July 12, 2015

This is what Eddie does always, puts out names for his guys and then they fight bums, he literally is doing this for publicity.

Just checked and I guess he was present and still in Thurman's corner. It's weird knowing that and seeing Thurman regress. Must have to do with the match making and maybe Thurman does need to leave Florida and train in Vegas or LA.
Good fight. The way Thurman has been regressing, I see Brook handling him and possibly stopping him. Thurman has been getting hurt by lesser fighters, one that is on the cusp of being top level or elite, should get the job done.
Was Birmingham in Thurman's corner last Saturday? I can't remember if he was or not and since PBC doesn't really do corner commentary, I couldn't verify.
Hell yea. I honestly think Thurman avoids this though. Right now, he wants either easy fights or money fights. Brook is neither easy nor money. Would love to see this though. One of those fights that just makes sense.
He'd make more money fighting Brook, probably double, than fighting Bundu, Gurero and Collazo.

Notice Kell giving a call about fighting Thurman AFTER he looked bad vs Collazo. I'm sure there are many other WWs who wouldn't mind getting in there with them after that performance.
