Brook vs Horn should happen. Brook vs Khan. Brook vs Ali made a lot of sense and I think Hearn passed on Cotto vs Brook. Career was wasted...
Kell Brook was the most poorly handled guy I can think of

That's not a theory. That's what happened. Kell wasn't happy with the Vargas money because Vargas was getting paid more than he was. Eddie was probably lose money on that fight. So he moved it from Sept to Oct and gave the Sept date to GGG-Eubank Jr because that fight would make money.
Towards the end of that interview I mentioned Hearn said he's on his way to talk to Brook and convince him to take the Vargas fight because if he wins he'll have 2 belts and be #1 in the division & the other top fighters would have to fight him.
Two days later it was announced he was fighting GGG. I think Eddie got nervous about the Eubank's because they were taking so long so he pulled the fight and offered it to Kell.
Kell vs Vargas without the GGG-Eubank Jr fight would've lost to much money. The GGG-Eubank fight woulda softened the blow.Comment

I agree. Kell Brook could have vacated his IBF title, moved to Super Welterweight and won a title there, and continued fighting the level of opposition he was. He'd be closing in on 40-0 now. He could have lived off of a win over Shawn Porter, and possibly had fights with Liam Smith and Amir Khan to secure his legacy.Comment
