    He should retire that's the smart thing to do, unless of course they offer a boat load of money for Benn or Eubank but I doubt those fights have the necessary value financially to make it worth while.

    Conor Benn. If not him then Eubank. Def. go the domestic route. He might lure Floyd for a fight,

    Conor. Just to make a point, and make a lot of extra retirement money in the process.

    He shouldn't go after the top guys anymore, that's for sure. But Conor would be a good choice.

    Conor Benn only, at his weight of 154lb.

    I want him to retire but this:

    Is probably the balanced answer. Having had two eye sockets replaced with metal plates it really seems like this is a good note on which to end his career. His future quality of life could be on the line if he takes a bad beating. Very difficult however to say to someone whose living has been prizefighting and who is unlikely to transition to media work or training that he should forego a massive purse if it's going to make a significant difference to his entire families quality of life. Hopefully he's been clever with his money and this last payday is sufficient for him to call it a day.

    ask him if his 147 fighter as the stones his last 147 fighter had and move up not two but one weight division
    then take eubank at 160 with hydration clauses

    If he does fight again he should go for the biggest payday he can get at 154 because he’s outgrown welterweight and quite honestly his eye won’t be able to take too much more.

    But if he has enough to retire comfortably then he should, because he’s going out on a high note.

    Go out on a high. He's shot and the lows have hit him very hard so why not go out on a high and let that be the final chapter of your career.

    Should pack it in.

    And if Benn or Eubank fancy it, Brook should demand 154. He's had two many fights where the weight has favoured his opponent

    Take the big money Benn fight then ride of in the distance khan still caught him with few shots but didn't have the power someone younger and bigger would of had brook out I think be shocked if he lasts more than 8 round with Benn
