      Maidana got 1.5M because he wasn't a big draw and that's about what he was worth.

      Kell Brook brings more to the table than that. Do you think Ricky Hatton only got 1.5M against Mayweather?

          If Algieri got a shot because he won a belt at 140 why not Brook.

          I guess that is the new norm, just win a title.

          Brook needs another good win to even be considered a legit contender against Pac.

            Nowadays, Getting a title shot and being a legitimate contender for a title are 2 different things.

              I'm a Brook fan, but he doesn't really bring more to the table than Maidana. At least not in terms of international exposure, which is what justifies big paydays. And don't compare him to Hatton. Hatton had a legion of loyal followers. Brook has a good chance of building the same, but he's nowhere near that yet

                Algeri only got one good win and his win wasnt as good as Brooks.

                I agree Brooks needs another good win

                  Brook vs khan will be huge over here, even the idea has me hyped! The only boxing match i've ever been to was froch vs groves at wembley and it was the best night of my life being a lifetime boxing fan, honestly this is a better matchup and no doubt they can sell atleast 60,000 and i will be one of them eddie hearn does not **** around!

                    It will be big, but much bigger if Hearn builds it up for a while first. I love the idea of Brook facing Mayweather before Khan gets the opportunity

                      well ortiz got a shot at floyd after winning a belt, guerrero won an interim and got a shot at floyd, canelo's wbc and ring belts were gifted to him. it happens in boxing.

                      if you want a real sport that follows the rules and there is only ONE belt/champion per weightclass i suggest watching BKB (Big Knockout Boxing).
