    obviouslwey i dont mean it like as in the same fan base cuz naz sold out msg, but i mean getting his own hbo dates and stuff, i honestly dont see brook getting a bunch of dates on HBO tbh, he just hasnt done anything to deserve it, i could see him on a shobox or espn card main event, maybe hbo if it was berto or mike jones.

    Depends on the opponent. If he can get a good name there is no reason why it wont be on HBO. I would love to see him fight Ortiz.

    Ortiz would be way too risky, i think they would go for someone untested like brook, mike jones or brad soloman something lioke that.

    The American fans do seem to know quite a bit about Brook considering all his fights have been in England and none against big name opponents.

    If he impresses against Jackiewicz then gets matched up against a respected opponent - i don't see why not!

    Matchroom seem to think he has the skills and market value to make it. His fan base is growing with every fight.

    Adidas must see something in him! he recieved 5k worth of Adidas gear last week.

    Wait till they hear him speak, they will go right off him. If they where ever really on him.

    A few US fighters he could fight on an undercard or Friday Shobox.
    Jones, Alvarado, Solomon, Porter and my preference Malignaggi

    He's a decent name, can sell a fight and the best way for Brook to make a name without worrying about getting sparked out!

    i totally think Brook is the real deal, i dont think it will take him a few years, i think he should be getting big fights now,

    he looks a superstar in the making to me,
