    We all want him to fight Spence, we all want Spence to be tested too. We all hate the suggestion from Team Brook regarding his mandatory, make your mind up and fight your mandatory or vacate the belt.

    Now it's "You are said he was ducking" emmmm ok

    The comments by Hearn are strange indeed.

    He criticises people for saying that the fight wouldn't happen, and then lists the ways he has tried to stop the fight happening.

      That's the thing, I think they backed themselves into a corner really. Dropping the belt would look bad on their part, this is why I said previously that Brook and Spence would happen.

      Hearn didn't help the situation by coming out with different names when you have a mandatory obligation in front of you to fulfill, when they were in the same situation previously with Brazier or Jo Jo Dan they quickly decide to get the mando out of the way, so they can pursue other lucrative fights with their belt.

      But the hesitation when it came to Spence made them look like they want to avoid the fight, in the end they really couldn't because they would look bad.

      Now people wants us to get them credit for fulfilling their mandatory obligations.

        Pacquiao put up a poll asking who he should fight next, Brook was on that poll so is in consideration.

          I said this weeks ago:

          I think the Brook-Spence fight is gonna happen.

          I've watched a lot of Eddie Hearn videos where he references what people are saying on Twitter. Well UK boxing twitter is lining up against Brook if he drops the belt. Hearn is obsessed with the fans opinion on Twitter and even engages the trolls. I know it sounds silly but this is the reason I believe the fight will happen.

            Who is the best fighter Spence has beaten?

            Algeria? Paulie Malinaggi 2.0 aka Mr. feather-fist himself?

            Or Chris Van Heerden? The apartheid assassin!

            Brook has fought his share of bums as champion, but he took Porter's "0" and looked damn good doing it.

            Brook is gonna bounce that head around like a basketball.

              great fight for boxingscene this one.

              There is going to be some pure vitriol on both sides and a lot of gloating after the event.

                Brook always desperate! Desperate to fight Khan, desperate to avoid mandatory, now desperate to fight Spence... Yet, up to a week ago, he was ready to drop the belt to fight Khan, but now, all of a sudden " i will never vacate" with anger tears in his eyes... lol

                  75/25 split.

                  Why wouldn't he want to fight him?

                    You mean the same type of poll mayweather put up?

                    Regardless of what the result are (khan is currently winning), Brook is probably the 4th option. I repeat, that fight isn't happening. Arum would cash Manny out with an in-house fight against Crawford, before he puts him in with Brook. Sorry, Brook is stuck with his mandatory.
