    At the time all the money at WW was over in America and arguably still is. Brook should have been over there years vefore the Porter fight but he nor Eddie want to give up home advantage.

    Sorry but there is no excuse why Brook didnt go over

    Only fight Brook should go to America for is Pacquaio if you're talking from a financial sense. Which other US welterweight could sell 20k tickets in his hometown or be on PPV?

    Because its not his decision? He cant just call out a name can he and say im fighting you... he was at the bottom... theres only a few fighters who can pick and choose. He would of been over in america a year previous had he and devon not suffered injuries in before their fight. What fight could he of just called out and said ok lets go fight in america? There wasnt anybody. Do you think porter would of fought him had he not been his mandatory? Not a chance

    Probably cause of ass licking cringeworthy begs like you! That will just be nice to people just because they are in the boxing industry despite him coming across on here as an unlikeable idiot who likes to troll.

    Clearly he's not the most likeable guy! ^

    Imo opinion he should have gone and vased himself there. He would have got fights. Now he is just 1 loss away from been overated and a uk hype job in most peoples eyes. Which is a shame

    Hearn has had a shot fighter on his hands in Burns ever since the losses after the Crawford. Yet Eddie has manoevered a clearly shot fighter to another world title by the easiest means possible and got him further big paydays. Hes done his job but Ricky looked domestic level v idongo and nothing like the guy who beat Kevin Mitchell

    Than u must have been at the irn bru too much

    The nature of the defeats/injuries..and the manner of them....the hometown eddie hearn decisions included....would have finished many lesser men

    Burns is as brave as they come ,and irrespective of the rise in competitio he hasnt been the same since the beltran fight...apart from the brief revival v figueroa which he still lost.

    He cannae let his hands go anymore wee man...he issnae confident....and his reflexesxare going at 34.i wasnae gonna say it as hes one of my favourites pal...but i dinnae ken what u been watching...ya saassenach

    Has he not shown his level though?

    gonazalez- was easily going to lose had the other guy not quit for whatever reason(credit to ricky for sticking in there but no doubt he was going to lose)
    beltran - broke jaw but should of lost
    crawford - lost
    zlaticanin - lost
    lepelley - won but against lesser opposition
    figueroa - again showed he's tough put up a good fight but lost
    ofotsu - again won but against lesser opposition
    josh king - won against lesser opposition
    di rocco- won his 3rd world title against an relatively unknown, not world level
    relikh - very close fight could of gone either way if i recall, again relatively unkown though. Remains to be seen if he goes on to do anything
    indongo - lost

    Each and every top level fighter he has faced in the past 4 years he has lost to. I'm standing by my own opinion. He was always overrated but had 1/2 good wins against good guys because of his grit/work rate and determination. That is not enough though against the top level guys.

    All to blame imo. This is only Kells 2nd decent fight at WW he should have had way more by now and could have been in the mix for Mayweather and Pacquiao fights.
