Kell Brook will be mandated to fight Errol Spence Jr, as soon as Spence gets his mandatory challenger Ponomarev out the way.
Eddie Hearn, knows that Errol Spence is a very hard fight for Kell Brook to win, and Spence would most probably be the favourite for that fight.
In order to get Brook ready for Errol Spence, Hearn is going to put Kell in with Robert Guerrero, a southpaw, who is willing to travel to the UK, as per a recent Hearn interview.
All this talk about getting over Vargas to the UK, is a load of bull****, even if Vargas thinks he is close to getting the fight. Hearn did the same thing with Brandon Rios.
HEARN knows that when Brook gets in the ring with Errol Spence, that is a make or break fight for Brook. If Brook loses, there is no way that Brook is winning a title at 147, he will be all risk and absolutely no reward. HEARN has been investing in Kell for the last 4 years, to then cash him out against a fight with Amir Khan. The prospect of the Khan fight happening without Brook suffering a defeat by Summer 2017, which is when a Khan v Brook fight can only realistically take place, is very high. Which is why Hearn and Brook are calling Khan out again. They are cornered!
If tomorrow Team Khan & Haymon offered Brook a 30/70 split in Khans favour, with a rematch clause, Kell would take it in a heartbeat.
Kell is hitting 30 years old, in an injury ridden career. How much longer does he have at the top level? Brook has made a little over £300k after tax, nowhere near enough for a boxer to live off for the rest of his life. HEARN has been paying for all of Brooks sparring partners, because Brook doesn't have the £ to pay for them.
It is common knowledge even within the Ingle Gym, that Brook is looking for a payday against Amir Khan. And Khan doesn't want to give Brook that payday.
I want to Khan v Brook, but sadly it looks like its never going to happen.
