Comments Thread For: Kell Brook Approached About Facing Miguel Cotto on June 18

Nothing new. Hearn always does this. Make it look like he's negotiating with some big names out there just to lure Khan, Frampton, etc. for his clients, somehow show he has alternatives.

To be fair almost all promoters/managers do this, Loeffler, Hoya, Arum, Decubas, GYM's promoter, etc. Bottom line: they always have specific targets in mind, "You're not the only choice we have." Kind of like courting a girl, "You'll be sorry if you don't accept me. Better stop acting hard to get."

So Cotto and others should be wary of this Hearn guy. Hearn will cancel an ongoing negotiation without showing guilt or remorse. Don't know about the Alexander case, but he certainly did it with Rios, Chaves, Donaire, etc.

Mark my word, Hearn and Brook will wait for Khan. That fight will always be their biggest lottery ticket and a sure guarantee to a comfortable retirement.

Why can't Cotto fight someone in his own division?

[QUOTE=Mr.Fantastic;16551862]Why can't Cotto fight someone in welterweight is his division! He's just been too lazy/feels like he looses power to cut the weight

Kell Brook would KO this bum in 1 round.

Brook vs Cotto Would Be Righteous!!!

Give Cotto anything he wants to make the fight!!! That's a great fight for Brook; Watch Cotto balk at the idea!

I'd actually really like this fight if it were made.

A lot better than Kirkland/Cotto and it would be Brook's chance to face a real opponent (which he hasn't had besides Porter). It would be a big name for Brook to have on his resume, making him a bigger draw in the process.

HBO offering the brook a fight with Cotto? Rock nation with Cotto right...it's a good fight...I haven't heard anything from Cotto side yet just talks of interest of a possible fight with Marquez at 147 but that weight would only be for that fight they mentioned ...Still a good fight

[soul_survivor]

There is noway that Cotto should get a title shot moving straight down to 147.

Brook against GGG? That's a good joke

[JJRod]

Good fight. Make it happen!
