Comments Thread For: Hearn: Brook-Gavin Winner Will Face Brandon Rios

[elishua F]

Its not great to be honest.

But...

At least Brook is busy (making £££) fighting.

A win over Rios will give him a little more exposure in the US but I can't help thinking it should have been Bradley after Gavin.

Both Khan and Brook are avoiding each other, holding out for the big payday and getting paid to beat up B class opposition.

Hearn making the Gavin fight kind of makes sense as both Brook and Gavin are Matchroom fighters, the Rios fight just doesn't offer enough to really test Brook IMO.

thing is khan has paid his dues to hold out for a big fight.. brook is a trash bag

[Box-Office]

You just know khantards will come here and talk **** even though their guy is fighting Algeri

Not to mention none of these fights would had place had Khan had some balls and agreed to fight someone who actually has a chance to beat him. That someone obviously is Kell Brook.

**** khan, it's his fault.

Eh? So, there are no other good WWs in this World for Brook to defend his belt against other than Khan? Amir never told Kell to revolve his life around him. It is quite weird that people always blame Brook's horrible opposition as Khan's fault.

Brook is no different than Amir trying to protect that belt just like Khan is saving himself from a puncher in hopes of May-Pac winner/loser.

Algieri would be the second best name on Kell's resume.

I don't mind this fight. Rios brings it and will test Brook's chin and body.

Much better than facing a Chris Algieri that's for sure

Algieri would box the eyebrows off that statute rios.

Hern makes it sound like Brook and Gavin are fighting in a eliminator to fight Rios

LMAO

This fight won't be possible without a PPV, stacked card with great 50-50 fights. hehe

Props for calling it weeks ahead.

I dont get why people are complaining about Brandon Rios. He Is a top 10 welterweight and khan clearly ducked him to fight algieri. Brook was practically begging to fight khan. Rios brook will be a good action packed fight, with Rios being the one making it action packed. I like this fight.

LMAO ... that's my cue to get out of this thread.

Pathetic.. Hearn trying to fool the uk fans with these garbage matchups

Right, just like Provodnikov recently did towards russians with that rigged bullshit against 50 year old Castillo.

Both Algeri and Rios are mediocre, just because they lost to Manny Pacquiao, it doesn't make them special.

Brook wanted to fight Khan, Amir didn't. So instead of one good match up we get two mediocre / ****ty ones.

I think it's pretty obvious

Khan is avoiding Brook I've admitted that a few times now. However, for a while now Brook has been fighting guys like Carson Jones and Hector Saldivia and when you point out his fans/people bring up "oh Khan could've fought him". So, either Khan or Joe the Plumber. Two extremes. Just pointing a general pattern.

Yeah, Khan should've fought him and too bad he isn't, but there are other top WWs out there for him to fight no? Stacked division. Or he can travel to America for his first voluntary like the guy he lusts over so much and fight them there.

I'm commenting from the point of view of Brook being on a higher ground since, he has been running his mouth a lot about Khan.

I'm not defending Brook, I'm just hating on Khan.

Fair enough.
