Don't even know why people are making the venue an issue. It will never take place in the UK, that's for sure. Brook knows it, most fans would assume that will be the case, simply because Crawford is a bigger name. End of story.
The biggest question that everyone ought to focus on is why aren't there any negotiations at all?

Arum: “The fight that Crawford would like is Spence. Kell Brook means nothing anymore.
So if Arum thinks Brook means nothing, does that mean Kavaliauskas means less than nothing. Because Brook is a bigger name and would lay Kavaliauskas out.

I'm sure they would do very well on Sheffield or where ever and the PPV would do a decent amount of buys. It makes sense.

That fight would do well in the UK, but the fact that Hearn doesn’t talk about it as an option makes me feel like he doesn’t think it would come off.

Originally posted by Ray* View PostThen it’s an option that they should explore, just by listening to many people around here, the amount of money Matchroom pays Brook!!! That fight can only happen in the UK, unless Brook is willing to take a pay cut to go to America for that fight, and to be honest if Brook isn’t willing to take a pay cut to make the Khan fight a reality then I don’t see him doing so again Crawford.

Brook knows how much Khan got for the Crawford fight and he will want around the same. This is why it only makes sense in the UK. Maybe majority of his pay could come off how well the PPV and gate does? So sort or of an upside type of deal and TR guatantees Crawford's purse? I don't know but you can't put that fight on PPV in the states so this is the only option.
