    Management comes into the equation. All things being equal management wise and Brook is a far better prospect. He has the potential to be a far better fighter but he has not got the same support base behind him. British boxing is not a meritocracy.

      the promotion behind him must be crap, the young lad is being kept inactive for so long, not good at all for a young boxer looking to prove himself

        Frank Warren is his promoter. Khan seemed to be Warren's main project but now he has signed with Golden Boy Brook might get more attention although I suspect Kevin Mitchell will get that. I think the attention Warren was devoting to Khan was detrimental to the other fighters. Hopefully this will change for Brook.

          Yeah no need to rush, he's only 23. Looks like he's about 2 years away from a title shot by the looks of it, sooner if they can get him in with someone like Zaveck.

                  Best British prospect IMO.

                  I made a thread about him a while back. I'll bump it cause it has more vids in that thread.
