Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao vs. Kell Brook in Talks For The Fall, Says Hearn

[davef]

Brook vs Pac wont happen Arum hates Brook for some reason and didn't he say he wont be doing business with hearn after the rios fiasco?

Brook vs Spence is very likely a 50/50 fight the thing is Brook has been waiting for big money fights for so long he is going to strike while the iron is hot and get the biggest purses he can, spence aint going no where that fight will be on the table for years and be worth more but pac and khan are on their way out no other fighters offer him that kind of money at 147 so he is gonna chase them first. You think spence would choose to fight brook if he was offered pac? Of course not anyone with half a brain would do the same

Fighting GGG, ducking Errol Spence.

The irony is flying past your head.

why cant you get it through your head yet? he had nothing to lose by fighting gg except his eye socket.. nobody would blame him or laugh if he lost to GG, cause everyone expected him to.

Hes giving his mando the run around for the first time in his career all the sudden.. How fast did he sign up to fight jojo dan?

He had just come back from being stabbed in the leg in all fairness

I cant defend his fights tho vs gavin and that other clown (whos name escapes me right now) they were classic Eddie Hearn snake oil fights

At this stage in their careers, i believe that Kell Brook will TKO Manny Pacquiao! From what i witnessed during the Golovkin fight, Brook's punch resistance seems very durable! Therefore Pacquiao's current punching power is not going to intimidate him in the slightest.....

Stylistically i don't think Pacquiao does well up against fighters who have the ability to launch fast, straight accurate punches! and who have good athleticism/agility! when you analyse Kell Brook, it is very obvious that he has all of these attributes! Brook will slowly just keep landing lead right hands, and jabs all night! Pacquiao will have some wild success, but that meta-human speed/power that he used to possess during his famous run of fights at welter-weight afew years back? has gone!

This is a good fight to make for Kell Brook commercially, great timing aswell if matchroom can pull it off!

This sounds like Bobby is using Brooks name to justify the Horn fight and sell it as Pacquiao's display bout for a Brook showdown later down the year. Bobby thinks we don't know his games by now.

bingo . . . .

Brook fights the guy canelo and everyone else is ducking GGG. A monster puncher with an immense amatuer now pro background.
People saying GGG fight was a no lose fight for brook. Except his zero and undefeated status. Not to mention his health after all he suffered a eye socket fracture. All of sudden he's ducking errol spence. Do me a favour...

I admire erroll spence jr he's a great prospect for many world titles. But his best named wins are chris algeri and bundu. I would pick Spence to beat brook, but it's not a guaranteed win for spence and a brook win is definitely possible.

I know kells had a history of fighting weak mandatories but alot of British still want the Brook v Khan fight at wembley 80,000+ fans its a domestic superfight still and the chance to bring pacman to the Uk is exciting. These are huge money fights for Brook and I believe he should vacate, purely so he can freely negotiate bigger fights. Sorry but alot of casuals don't know spence yet and he won't draw like khan or pac can. Enjoy watching spence fight someone **** or porter for a vacant belt if he cant wait.

so is this guy gonna fight spence or what.. fought complete stiffs and wants all paydays now smh

of course! Prizefighting!

That said. This absolutely wont happen.

He'll fight Khan. Brook is definitely looking to make as much money as he can now. Hearn like any promoter worth his salt is not going to make that Spence fight unless they threaten to strip him, if he can instead make a PPV with Khan - even then if they strip him I am not sure they'd be fussed.

Dunno what they'd do with Spence it wouldn't sell over here so no PPV - Brook would end up travelling and possibly get beat and for comparative buttons.

That Khan fight has been in the offing for years. Spence will probably end up fighting for that belt when it becomes vacant against an overmatched opponent. He is in a tough spot to be fair to him.

Brook/Spence is basically like an elite 'trade fight'. It wont happen. Which is a shame.

[John Locke]

No chance this fight happens. Brook is a better fighter and way more dangerous than Crawford, I'm sure Bob would rather keep everything in-house.

[redmoney]

Smh at Hearn. They looking at bigger fights but they have a live lion waitin to take Special K's belt in Errol Spence jr. I don't understand why they didn't get this **** in order yet. Spence gonna spoil this mans plan
