        Why? Really!!! Am sorry but Bam bam is a punching bag, he would be eating right hands every minute unless brook gets tired. Brook need Maidana or thurman next if Khan says no again.

          And don't say the dates. Maybe you believe that somehow accidentally all the credible opponents weren't able to Brook all the time, I don't. For start instead of Gavin he could have fight Bradley, Thurman, Chavez or Guerreor, none of them had officially announced fights when Hearn announced Gavin (Chavez still hasn't). On his next fight only if he would wait a few more weeks he could fight Thurman, Chavez, Bradley, Guerrero...
          The only realistic one you named there was Diego Chaves who was considered for this last fight but they chose Gavin because he was British and it would sell better. Diego Chaves is a top opponent now? Wtf?

          Instead of Gavin, he could have fought Keith Thurman? On 5 or 6 weeks notice? On a card where Hearn has already paid two other world champions to travel. He's going to shell out another 3 odd million to Thurman? Oh and Thurman still looked like a ***ing panda from his fight with the other guy you mentioned, Guererro. Like I said....are you ***ing dense?

          Don't say the dates? The dates are kinda important because you can't just throw out figthers names who are unavailable

          Why should the champion wait for other fighters who are fighting WORSE opponents than Brandon Rios? Because they're American, they get free reign to do their own thing but Brook, THE CHAMPION, must arrange his schedule around them?

          Didnt mean to offend, man. But dude Brook cant be given anymore passes. Jo jo dan, Frankie Gavin and now Rios? Whats the point of having a title if hes not gonna do anything with it? Look at the welter weight division...thise are his options.

          Far as Porter goes, he did good things while he had it. He beat devon to aquire it, beat paulie and did his mando with Brook..thats a stretch of 3 good fighters.you cant really knock that.
          A shot to **** Paulie Malignaggi was a good defence but Brandon Rios isn't?

          The only reason he fought Brook is because they forced him too.

          Never said it did but that is Brook's schedule and he's the champion. What we've got here are a bunch of bitter Fat Yanks saying why doesn't he wait for the American fighters?

          Why don't they wait for him?

          Bradley is fighting JESSIE fking VARGAS. Why is he having that fight? Thurman is fighting the corpse of Luis Colllazo. Why is he having that fight?

              Maidana seems to be really comfortable right now. I think the next time he fights, we'll be seeing him on PBC. Thurman already has a fight lined up in July, so he won't be available. Rios is the only guy available for August.

                Rios? Easy fight for Brook. Guess Arum can sell anything to HBO and Hearn will go right along for the free ride for Brook. What the hell, easy money, Brook looks good on American TV and Brook get paid for hitting the bag. Arum get paid for promotion a mismatch. Win,win, win situation for everyone except Rios.

                  Maidana just got married and looks about 300lbs.

                  NSB tards don't live in the real world. They think fights can just happen by clicking your fingers.

                    If Khan would get on the blower and stop blaming his trainer for his poor performance there would be no Chris A's , no Gavin and no Rios. Khan is now saying he over trained for Chris Algieri , what would the excuses be if ever they were ****** enough to let him share a ring with the master.
                    How people try to defend this man is beyond me , Mayweather can't get away with knocking him out after this but you wait and see what stiff the Khan's try next.....Lol

                      You can work out timings except with Mayweather of course. Hearn and Arum have been in dicussions for this fight for weeks/months otherwise Rios himself would have had a fight lined up.
