Comments Thread For: Brook vs. Bradley-Vargas Winner is Great, Says Hearn

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Kell Brook retained his IBF welterweight title late in London late Saturday when he stopped fellow Englishman Frankie Gavin in six rounds.

Brook was an odds-on betting favorite going into the fight despite Gavin having a superb reputation from his amateur days when he won a world title.

But Gavin's fight plan turned out to be too passive and when the reigning champion found his full range in the sixth round he piled on the pressure and forced the stoppage.

Hearn doesn't like Thurman near because we all know Kell was rocked by Carson Jones and he struggles when taking a shot. I want to see Thurman next.

Bradley is a better fight than Rios but Rios gives the fans an exciting fight.

I don't know. Well at least to me, Bradley has not been the same since that Marquez victory because his record is subsequently 0-1-1 afterwards. In addition, he has shown a tendency of fading late stamina wise during the second half of bouts too.

For example, beginning with the Pacquiao rematch, where he had started fast but faded late and most recently in his previous fight with Diego Chaves which resulted in a draw, due to a lower work rate and punch volume in the later rounds after a very strong start as well; Especially in those championship rounds.

Perhaps the punishment he absorbed in that Provodnikov bout may have aged and taken a lot more out of him than we had originally thought.

Tim would go there. He got his first title beating Witter in the UK.
