    According to Edward Hearn.

    Also talks major crap about Frank Warren's selling skills.

    Funny how Brook fans were implying Khan would be fighting Vargas next and how it was a disgrace of a fight

      Title or not, Vargas would be a dull one to look forward to.

        I think Bradley will beat Pac, i just have this feeling, so Brook might get that fight

        Also if they can make the Cotto fight happen, that would also be great for Brook

        I think Cotto and Bradley are very beatable for Brook.

        Vargas, no thanks, he'd get beaten to a pulp by Brook, way too small, also i believe Vargas is on PED's and Brooks team will request extra testing like they did with Porter, thus the real Vargas will show up, who isnt very good.

          Vargas used to be a TMT fighter. Not hard to recall Floyd asking Khan to test his skills on Vargas first before giving him the super fight.

            I would like to see Garcia vs Brook. But it doesn't make so much sense for Garcia I don't think. But it would be a great unification fight. Bradley and Cotto are winnable, but definitely also possible losses imo. not so much Bradley, but definitely Cotto if he has something left.

            Vargas would be boring. That's a 5 rounds job for Brook. But at the least, being WBO/IBF champ would pull leverage with Garcia / Pacquiao / Khan / Thurman etc.

              I think Haymon is trying to setup the winner of Porter vs Thurman with Garcia, unless Khan wants to take on Garcia.

              Cotto has the experience, power and size to cause Brook problems.

              Bradley would be the easier option, but could cause some problems.

              Yes you are right Vargas brings a belt to the table, which will give Brook more leverage, but it might also mean he has to fight more lackluster mandos?

              Brook just needs a name on his record...it'll change his fortunes

                Vargas vs Brook sounds good. I actually favor Vargas over Brook.

                  For me the Garcia fight makes total sense - But if Garcia has Mayweather option, then obviously that's over.

                  Cotto, Bradley, Pacquiao, Garcia, Thurman or Porter - Either of those six would be good fights. Anything other than the above would be a major disappointment.

                    I kind of agree. Brook is the better boxer but I haven't seen Brook deal with anyone who has both power and reach so I won't count Jesse out. Vargas really impressed me with his ability to maximize his reach in that last fight and throw constant bombs without tiring.
