      Not that the khan fight will happen but if we are going off the logic that vargas takes the fight cos it's bigger than his previous biggest pay day then kell getting 20% for Khan is really generous lol

      Hearn simply doesn't value Brook that much, he keeps talking about pulling out all the stops and says he WILL get kell that fight.... Has he delivered?

      Ultimately we are left with the welterweight division passing kell Brook by, pretty sad for kell.

      Wonder if kell talks to James degale much.

          When guys are getting paid 1M+ to fight guys their suppose to beat they expect a huge payday when the fight isn't a guaranteed win.

            I will say it one more time:

            Brook is the best WW right now.

            Brook would kill Fanny!

              If Brook was that good why didn't he beat Porter in s more convincing way?

              Porter is a pretty one dimensional limited fighter, I don't get why it's apparently such a huge deal,it isn't.

              Brook's reputation is absurd and incredibly illogical.

                  Vargas should take it. He has no name recognition what so ever and should be happy with getting such an offer. He is lucky to be with a title in the first place with all the gifts that he has gotten over his career.

                  From 1.6 he will be lucky if he see 500k cash

                    I am not saying it's not a very good victory, it is.

                    But its only one good win and wasn't so good that you can justify some of the things people say


                    "kell Brook is just too good for his own good...."

                    "kell Brook is the best WW and most avoided fighter "


                    Ummm based of what? Illogical and absurd.

                    Perhaps it's because kell Brook has an unremarkable cv that leaves him with no profile , no one knows him either here or in the states, and he doesn't really bring money in.

                      Why not?

                      Martin is a nobody

                      Vargas has been in more high profile fights than Martin pre Jousha

                      Vargas is the same guy Floyd would brag about in interviews.

                      The same amount of money should be on offer for Vargas
