    Oh WBO??

    Oh well I take that back then. I mean, they had Christian Hammer #3 just two weeks ago so they must have credible rankings.

      Oh yes, it is all about the IBF now, forgot about that. Was it WBA back when Davey boy was HW champ?

        It's about actual rankings.

        Not bs org rankings who nobody cares about.

          Hearn should be talking about Thurman or Maidana, if he can't land Khan. Beating a 41 yr. old man is not saying much. Marquez is too high risk, low reward. Since Bradley beat Marquez, why not Bradley?

            I'd like that fight, but what is the deal with Bradley at the moment?

            Not just talking about against Kell, I haven't heard Bradley being mentioned in any potential fights for a while.

              Won't happen.

              I fully expect Hearn to announce Brook-Gavin.

              We all know Eddie loves his domestic fight.

                  Marquez would clearly bring the highest reward out of any of the fighters you just mentioned.

                    Brook is a BIG WW. Marquez has been having to many knee problems at this age and at the end of his career that I don't think it would be possible.

                    Marquez wants to fight for a WW title, who knows if this would motivate him

                      that victory over berrea was pretty shadey .

                      the fight should have been called off after the head clash

                      the ref strung it out until they could go to the score cards .

                      im a khan fan too but that should have been a no contest
