Kell accepts this challenge no doubt. But then he fights the guy that changes his oil, the usher at his favorite movie theater, and the groundskeeper at the local animal shelter in his next 3 fights.

Lol .. Eddie's got the cab drivers association and the homeless shelter on speed dial, right after Vargas... but seriously though, u gotta give him props for unfiying in such a deep division

Why does Thurman want to face a guy coming off of a loss? He should be saying that he is interested in fighting Garcia after Garcia beats Brook down. Coward won't even sign the contract now.

Brook isn't fighting Garcia you mong. He's fighting Vargas.

If Brook defeats Vargas, Thurman vs. Brook would be excellent! Thurman might become the face of boxing on CBS! That would be a great fight! So what's the latest on the Brook vs. Vargas fight? If Brook backs out, then Garcia vs. Vargas should happen soon! Arum and Haymon could use that as an ice-breaker!

I don't see how Garcia is even relevant. And to an extent, I don't see how Vargas is relevant. At least when it comes to the top of the division. Brook, Bradley, and Thurman are the top guys. The you can put Porter right below them. Then below Porter you have the Garcias, Vargas, and Khans of the world. And of course you have Floyd and Manny still lingering around. And if they come back, they automatically go to the top. We need a combination of Brook, Bradley, and Thurman for division supremacy. And if none of those happen, then we can start talking about some of the guys below them getting a shot.

The problem is Garcia and Vargas are the champs, and other guys are trying to get a shot at them! Garcia vs. Vargas would be a unification bout, and Thurman vs. Brook would be a unification bout, if those fights were to happen today. Porter vs. Bradley would be another decent fight! They both desperately need a win!

I'm all for that bout but I would caution everyone to not to underestimate or sleep on Jessie Vargas. He has a lot of momentum in terms of confidence, since nearly stopping Timothy Bradley in the 12th round of their bout and then subsequently stopping Sadam Ali in his next bout.
