Brook is the main event in Sheffield i'll give you that but he is on the undercard part of the Fury vs Wladmir event.

    It's a split PPV.

    He's not on any undercard

      Khan's beaten Maidana and Devon who was in the top 10 welterweights when Khan fought and defeated him.
      Ring Magazine and TRBR?

      Yeah, Alexander was #9 and Maidana was 5 years ago at LWW.

      As I said, two current top 10 welterweights?

      Who?

          He was also ahead against Rios clearly, before he started to clinch like a queen for whatever reason.

          Brook is not willing to fight Mosley, GTFO with that. People are reading waaay too much into a comment that was said with a smile on his face.
          Ironically, Brook clinched in his biggest fight. But he had a reason - not to get KTFO.

          As for the ladder, it's really hard to believe in what Brook says, after the Porter fight - he said only big fights next.

          And then the 2015 happened.

          For the record, I like the Chaves fight. I think their styles will mash well.

          But the fact that the guy in the WW division (as Floyd and Pac are most likely retired at this point) is fighting a guy like Chaves isn't really impressive.

          Au the contraire, actually.

            Khan needs to fight Jo Jo Dan, Frankie Gavin and Chaves to be considered an elite weltwerweight fighter you can't get gifted such a high rating without fighting elite opponents like I mentioned.

              The fact he is ranked number three in the welterweights with only one good win is the only thing that gets to me, he has a title guys like Thurman, Bradley, Porter (rematch) and Danny Garcia are all possible yet he has went for nothing but terrible fights.

              Style wise Chaves might put forward an early problem for Brook but I just see him fading, Chaves isn't an away fighter that and the fact he has choked on every big fight occassion he has ever had, just keeping it real its an okay fight but its not a great win, great win for Chaves If he pulls it off but not for Brook

                Yeah there was no difference at all.

                Who did you want him to fight on October 24th? I agree Chaves wasn't the best, but he was still the best available.

                Khan should just try and fight a real WW.

                Want to bet that his next fight will be against a LWW?

                    He's ranked #2.

                    Well, who is Thurman, Bradley, Garcia, Porter fighting that's better than Chaves?

                    The contradiction in this post is as laughable as it is ignorant.

                    You're right though that it's not a great win. A solid win nevertheless.

                      Chris Algieri is a better fight than Chaves, Gavin and Jo Jo Dan
                      If you think otherwise please name me one guy those three have beat that is better than Ruslan Provodnikov and pretending a mere 7lbs makes much of a difference you seen how well Algieri filled out at WW?
