    It's not that it's a bad fight. It's just not gonna happen. Crawford just moved up to WW last year. Brook found out the hard way he can't make 147 anymore.

    Unless Crawford is OK moving up to 154 (which I don't see), it's not happening.

      Is Brook even a fight that could make money ?!?!? And do we need to hear team Kell cry about not being able to make weight at the post fight ?

        It would be a terrible fight because Khan would have easily beat brook imagine the bud and Brook fight it would be a massacre

          Maybe not PPV. Would pack a house in Omaha and do big ratings on ESPN. You probably could even put it in New York and pack the house.

            Meh for me. Nothing to gain for Bud. Unfortunately, Khan was able to talk his way into a fight. Brook doesn't have that gift of gab.

            I hope it doesn't get made because I can just hear all the grumbling after Brook eats the L.

            ''When will Bud step up, damn !!!!!'' would be the least of it.

              They should make an offer to Ugas. Let Ugas get on ESPN and blow the spot up about how he was robbed vs Porter and should be WBC Champ. Have Atlas, Ward, and Kellerman all say they felt Ugas won the fight. That would piss Porter off but **** it he loss that fight.

                As much as I LOATHE Porter (his 'style' is for the birds), I'd rather him than Brook or Ugas. Rarely does a loser admit defeat without excuses (haven't seen the fight due to me loathing Porter's 'style').

                  I say Brook is the only option out there thats going to get decent headlines, it makes no sense to be in obscurity fighting those unknown mandos. Its gotta be a name fighter of somewhat every fight to keep people from forgetting you

                    Who's saying its a bad fight that has an opinion worth a damn?

                    Granted I can see the argument for it to some degree cuz Brook has had a rough go of it with that GGG & Spence fight getting half his face replaced so I think he's not the same guy that he was awhile back or one could suggest that anyway.

                    I'd ultimately disagree with it doe cuz the thing is who the f#ck is Bud supposed to fight? I mean you can only fight who's available & who's available on the short shortlist includes Brook it would seem to me.

                    I just said in another thread I think Brook is probably the 6th best option for Bud for next of all options (1 thru 5, Spence, Thurman, Manny, Porter & Garcia), but he's the 2nd best option (Garcia being #1) thats on the table for next cuz of the schedule thats probably all put in place unofficially still & he's #1 thats a reasonably easy fight to make cuz Bud needs name 147lb guys & Brook is looking for a cash out fight so its a solid fight that fits for both parties.

                      Read the comments. They all telling the truth. Pretty much everyone on this site will vouch for Ugas winning that fight. Plus Ugas beat Crawford in the amateurs and Crawford acknowledges his skill.
