    It will be Hurd then Khan in december. No talk yet on the weight for the Khan fight but it will be a key factor. Hearn will probably talk Khan into 150.

    He would get destroyed off the top dogs at 154, its bum city and hope Khan wants to fight him, no chance he fights Hurd or charlo before Khan

    If we were to consider the top 3 154lb guys Hurd , Charlo and Lara is there anyone who would back Brook to beat those guys ? More importantly do you think Eddie Hearn is stupid enough to risk Brook and more importantly a massive money fight with Khan by trying to make one of those fights ? The only possible "champ" that might be considered worth a risk would be WBO Mungula but I doubt it . They will have some middle of the road type with a padded record to give the illusion of being a decent test and I have no doubt Khan's opponent will be of the same quality. Keep them both winning to have a cash out fight for both of them .

    Agree with above. Can’t see a “‘massive” domestic clash between Khan and Brook being put at risk by putting either fighter in a risky fight.

    I saw on Twitter that K9 Bundrage wants to be Brooks next opponent.

    It should be an easy fight as Brook has only fought very difficult fights in a row. It's time he gets back into form..................

    lol, his last 6 fights are: rabchenko (easy), errol spence (tough) GGG (tough, bizier (easy), gavin (easy), Dan (Easy), 2 hard world title fights and 4 bums, no reason why he shouldn't be in tough fights now, been over a year since his last competitive fight.

    How old is K9 now? 42? Can't see any mileage in that
    Rosado is game but nothing more than a high profile journeyman so that's would suit Brook if Khan was after that. I guess Brook will have eyes on Liam Smith's next fight if he goes for the WBO
