Eddie, thanks but no thanks for stating the obvious.
Now if you and your charge can kindly vacate and move on to your money fight with a fighter who is not interested in you that will be a good thing for the fight game!!
Oh and by the way, if the fight ever happens, it will be a pick em fight.
Said it before and will say it again, Brook is as overrated as Khan is underrated.

The fact is, Brook-Spence could sell very well in the UK. It could easily headline a PPV (FFS, Brook v Gavin headlined a PPV!) as long as it had a strong undercard, and it would easily fill out the o2 Arena (20,000). Maybe not a Wembley fight, but could stick it in a 40,000 football ground and sell out no problem. Especially when Sky's media machine goes into top gear and clues up the casuals that Spence is the real deal – a powerful, unbeaten heir apparent to the pound for pound throne blah blah blah. Consumers will lap that up, and fight fans will 100% buy it because they know it's a legit fight between two world-class competitors.
Don't let Hearn fool you into thinking the Khan fight is WAAAAAY bigger than Spence. It's bigger, certainly, but three times as big? I doubt it. The Spence fight could be a mega event as well.
Hearn wants to make Brook v Khan because he knows he'll be able to lay on a ****TY, cheap undercard for it, because Brook v Khan hate each other and casuals lap up the beef. But with Brook-Spence, he'd have to get out his chequebook and make a couple of other top-level fights, maybe one or two good world title fights. So that's gonna cost him more dough.
