    Not going to come to the UK in October. Al Haymon would have to make Brook an offer to come to America if they really want that fight. They won't though - it's more realistic for next year.

      whats brooks excuse for being obsessed with khan who isn't the top fighter in the division has no belts and brook is doing nothing to build his crap resume while waiting

      chaves as an opponent would be a big disappointment with anyone else -- with brook it would be a relief. I had no idea who jojo and frankie even were.
      Do you think Brook wouldn't fight Mayweather or Pacquaio himself? Just because fighters don't **** on about Mayweather and Pacquaio every single waking moment of their lives, doesn't mean they don't want to fight them.

      If neither of them get Mayweather or Pacquiao, the next biggest fight out there for both of them is against each other. Not hard to understand.

        why does he **** on about khan every waking moment instead?

        what a strange thing for a fighter with a belt to do, hold it hostage fighting bums while begging a completely random challenger with no belt to face him

        khan's obsession make sense - every fighter wants a shot at the top

        brook is taking what he sees as the easy road, bum streaks building up to profitable domestic rivalries. In the meantime his resume remains one of the most mediocre for a beltholder in all of boxing.

          He doesn't **** on about Khan. Do you see Brook articles here every day? No. He's made it clear he wants the fight.

          If neither of them get Mayweather or Pacquaio, the biggest fight for them is against each other - basic common sense.

            yes and there's literally am article on the front page of boxing scene:
            "Brook Feels More Confident of Facing Khan Next Year"

            lmao your position is indefensible, brook is doing the same thing as khan but it's 10x worse because khan is a random guy with no belt

            he clearly clearly clearly wants easy fights that build up to profitable domestic rivalries, what else could this obsession be?

            work on that garbage resume of yours brook, not even khan is interested right now

              Who do you want Brook to fight next?

              The only person at 147 who isn't a "random guy with no belt" is Mayweather.

                My guess is it'll be Diego Chaves which will count as Brook's next mandatory.

                Also interesting to note that they agreed to rematch Rios in America if he had beaten Brook in the UK. As I also suspected, Bum Bum just didn't want the fight.
                I ran into Brandon about a week ago and that is not what he told me. He told me that Brook didn't want him to wear his gloves, low balled him on the offer AND wanted the rematch in the UK.

                  There was a promise that Gavin won't happen this year.

                  Dork Dumbler trying too hard as usual.

                    Aren't the gloves banned in the UK? And the rematch thing in the UK was at first. Maybe Hearn budged on that? Maybe Rios bull****ted you so he wouldn't look like the duck.

                      It would be great if they line him up with Thurman or Alexander.

                      Time for him to push forward.
