    Well Arum was in the UK to discuss Quigg vs. Donaire. If Hearn can pull off both or either of those fights, it would be quite a coup.

    It would probably take a massive purse for Bradley to fight in the UK. I would love this fight though.
    I think it's safe to say Bradley would not be afraid to come to the UK, i mean he did come to Nottingham England to take the title away from Junior witter back in 2008. Would he demand a big purse? absolutely and he's entitled to it since he will be the star in the fight and bringing all the publicity due to the danger he posesses to brook...not to mention that he is also a champion like brook. Will be a super fight as far as i'm concerned, especially as it's a unification bout.

    Khan vs Pacman - Winner faces Winner of Bradley - Brook?

        It's not about whether he's afraid or not. He came to face Witter because he was the mandatory challenger. He didn't have much of a choice. He has since become a name fighter who doesn't need to travel to earn big money.

          Yeah like Bradley beat the **** out of....... Who?

          Brook would beat the absolute breaks of the midget, featherfisted Bradley with ease.

          and then everyone here will claim Bradley was past it anyway.

            Fighting witter for relative peanuts to grab a title when you're on the up makes sense. Fighting Brook in the uk when you're one of the stars of the division is completely different.

            It won't happen in the UK imo.

              Bradley can fight the Vargas' of the world for $2million ish, why fight the second best, huge, powerful, undefeated Brook for less?

                Depends how much money there is on the table.

                I think Brook would beat Bradley quite handily and always have thought that. Bradley hasn't declined, he just isn't as great as people make him out to be and never has been.

                  Bradley is good enough to beat people his own size with short range, or people who like to fight on the inside and don't move much.

                  Brook is a full 2 weight classes above him. He'd be toast.

                    I've only recently started playing closer attention to Hearn, but it seems like he's got some above average talent at getting his guys mentioned vs the names in any particular division to keep their name in the air & connected with more known &/or respected people. And then fighting Gavin level cats.

                    I think Brook gets to fighting more of the names @ 147, but I tend to doubt its in October & vs Bradley. Hopefully I'm wrong cuz thats an interesting fight.
