    It's a 50-50 fight, I can see it happening next year.

          Depends on what else is out there for him, if Khan makes a move before he does then I think Rios would likely be alright. In a vacuum Rios is generally alright for Brook who does not have all that many high profile wins, Rios for his flaws is high profile and would be viewed as Brook's second best win, generally speaking if a guy will be viewed as your second best win the opposition is fine.


          If Khan is hanging out and Brook just decides to move on his own to a Rios fight he would take a lot of **** more than he would likely deserve (given how verbose Khan fans are).

            So Thurman is totally and completely avoided by Brook and his fans. They don't even want to mention his name. I see.

                Dude, Rios is not a bum and he will give Brook some serious issues because he's one of the best inside fighters at 147 if not the best and Ezekiel can't fight on the inside.

                    Yes he gets a pass. He wants Amir Khan, but Khan wants NO parts of Brook so why not a fun fight against Rios? Brook still needs to build his resume and according to Khans logic, Rios went the distance with an A class opponent in Manny Pacquiao, but came up short SOOOOOOOO


                    Rios = A class opponent


                    Khan logic

                      Sorry there are many worthy boxers for the champion

                      Brook is the title holder, his existence shudnt be based on Amirr Khan

                      There is no excuse to why he shud hold a title hostage just because he doesn't get a fight with Khan..


                      Brooks has had enough fun fights against 30 odd bums
