Brook is far too good for Taylor. Taylor needs to try and stay at 140 as he wouldn't be top 10 at 147. He really needs to avenge his loss to Jack Catterall. Nash out.
Brook couldn't make 147 for Khan, why would this be different?
Ok so say 149 like the other poster suggested?
Arum has done business with Brook before and Taylor needs a winnable “look good “ fight.
At 147. It kind of does because Taylor needs an opponent to look good against at 147 and Brook wants a high profile fight he can earn a decent payday.
This is a win win.

If this is going to be Taylor's first venture into 147 then it makes sense. Brook is coming off a win over a shot Khan and still has some name recognition in the U.K.
At what weight? This fight makes no damn sense at all.

That’s why I can’t see it happening… it would have to be 149’ish I’d guess. The weight would definitely be a big sticking point.
I think it’s gonna be Brook vs Eubank Jr.
