    Many boxers have made living fighting their mandos. The thing with that is that it will bring hate from people who then turn around and praise others for the same damn shit.

      Canelo got to duck his mandatory and pink sock Khan for $.
      People cheered. Called it KO of the year lol
      Brook actually fought GGG. He took his ass whippin.
      Is Saul the only one allowed to swerve dangerous fights for an easy payday?

      For the record, I want to see Brook-Spence too. One of the best fights to make at that weight.
      Khan is long overdue for an asskicking from Brook though and it's a big fight in the UK. I understand that as well.
      Khan is as scared of Brook as Canelo is of GGG though so it probably won't happen lol

          I can understand that, and thats cool..just be honest and let it be known, drop the belt and move on..but dont say you want Khan at 154 and ignore Spence..its bull****

            Why are all the GGG haters so interested in Brook all of a sudden?

              Canelo had to drop that belt or fight aswell..so now what? IBF is very strick and has blocked many unification bouts..I would love to see Brook-Khan but Brook has to fight Spence to keep that strap

                Better question is why are GGG fans not slamming Brook for not fighting his mandatory..Isnt that what ya'll preach?

                  My guess is that the risk isn't worth the reward. Spence is very good but he's not well known enough. Not exactly the kind of guy you want to be fighting after a Golovkin fight. He probably thought the Golovkin fight was going to be a pathway to more lucrative fights.

                    It's cool as long as Brook floats an offer out to the public to fight Spence next year lol

                      Seeing how Hearn is a bit shady...I can see how the advisory stays consistent...

                      Brook's been the main kat at matchroom's list of boxers even before the Gennady fight.

                      Losing to Spence....not sure that would work out well..
