Comments Thread For: Kell Brook is Reluctant To Vacate The IBF Title, Says Hearn

[ruedboy]

Hopefully Brook decides whether he wants to keep his title soon, so Spence can make plans for what's next.
Spence is a great prospect but a young fighter needs to stay active. Besides he's an exciting fighter and fun to watch.
Spence wants the title and the marketing power it brings but I hope he fights a top 10 WW while he waits for Brook.

IBF should do right thing and just take belt from kell, he put on way to much weight to even remotely come close now to making ww and already discussing three fights at jrmw he wants to make no point in holding up Errol and other fighters in IBF rankings

[turnedup]

I don't see how Brook gets back down to 147 without some serious serious new weight program and he better start now.

[M Bison]

he should make the spence fight but come in 9 pounds overweight and say he can't make the weight anymore. fight anyway since there's so much money on the line and boom that's how boxing works

That's a good idea or just throw Spence a bone and say the only way you're getting this career defining fight with me Is If you fight me at a catchweight or just fight me at 154lbs...
Spence is a big 147lber anyway no harm in that imo.

Kell Brook their is only 1 big fight for him at 154 that is Canelo at 147 Garcia Thurman Bradley Spence are big fights for Brook

Once again, Hearn is FULL of himself.
Gotta give him credit for being a good businessman though.

There is no getting around Spence or being STRIPPED off the title.

Brooks has had no problem fighting his mandatories in the past. Spence is next.
They have to deal with that.

Its all good an well that he wants to be involved in big money fights. More power to him. iF ( and this is a BIG IF) he can take care of Spence then the big fights he is seeking become more appealing.

Just dont hold the title HOSTAGE.

One thing i do know is that Spence is going to be the next WW champion no matter who is in the other corner.

The fight wasnt even 7 days ago and people talk about someone holding a belt hostage.

What is BJ Saunders doing then? Damn some people are weird. Read the article, it says he only has 10 days, so we will find out in 3-4 days what will happen. I doubt he can and wants to make 147 again, it would be murderous, but giving up a title is a damn hard task for every fighter.

Fight spence or shut your big mouth hearn

Fight spence or shut your fat mouth and vacate you quitters!

[AD86]

Spence fans fans are a joke, saying he's holding the belt hostage when he's out injured after fighting 7 days ago only a ****** would class that as holding the belt hostage.

[SkillspayBills]

Come one man this guy won't be ready until the middle of next year. Let Spence fight for that belt NOW!
