[Fuzzy-101]

Brook wants to wants to maintain momentum and wants to stay sharp. For the amount of time left, for the little amount of money available, it was never going to be anything besides a showcase fight.

Deal with it, bruv.

Pretty much sums up his whole professional career

When was the last time Mayweather or pacquiao had to face a mandatory challenger?

Brook has just fulfilled his mandatory obligations. He's having to fight a dangerous, highly ranked competitor in Gavin because he wants to stay active.

People don't complain when GGG does it so what's the difference with Brook?

1. Guerrero was his last official mandatory, technically Canelo was the number 1 contender for his WBA LMW title and a unification , Maidana was a unification and Pac is number 1 for his Ring title and a unification. I can't think of any Mandatories Pac had fought

2. Gavin isn't dangerous he's a local which cash and is in house if he really wanted to impress fight Bradley or Thurman then that would make a a viable name for the May vs Pac winner.

3.GGG fights Mandatories because he has no choice all the other top dogs are ducking him, that's not the case with Brook everyone wants to fight him minus Khan.
