    Why the **** not?

    Bradley fought Providnikov who was primarily an espn fighter,just goes to show they wernt looking for a big name for his comeback fight he was willing to fight anyone that accepted the offer.They probably offered Provodnikov the same deal as Brook and he bit they're arm off for it and look at him now,definately gonna be in some big money making fights in the future.

    Can't believe your justifying the Hector Saldivia fight over a world title shot at Tim Bradley.

    What planet are you on?

    Hearns head is up his arse.

    Fight Tim Bradley for $100,000 + rematch clause + 2 fight option.
    Fight Devon Alexander for $300,000.

    Nobodys heads up anybody's arse. Its common sense.

    They had already faced Saldivia before the Bradley fight was offered by the way.

    I am on the planet that knows that Tim Bradley had no interest in fighting Kell Brook at that time. Remember the announcement about Tim Bradley and Rigondeaux on the undercard in the stadium in Florida? They tried for Berto then Arum lined up Peterson and Tim said no. He was rumored to be fighting Gamboa for months too. It wasn't till that fight (gamboa) fell through that Bradley realized he better get back in the ring. Hence why he took the Provodnikov fight.

    Google it you don't know all this!

    Doesn't matter. Brook would have KO'd Tim in 2 rounds, then sliced through JMM and would be currently in preparation for Pacquaio...

    Kell Brook unleashed!

    They can demand all they want.As somebody already said,its not happening.The only possible way IMO is Kell somehow gets a title and he's ordered to defend against Provodnikov.Thatll be Sheffield,not Vegas.

    Will these two fights be IBF eliminators?

    And what if Kell had of pulled it out of the bag and beaten Bradley do you not think he would have been in a real position to fight big names and make proper pay days.***** footing around in Sheffield fighting Ibf eliminators and trying to get an easier route to the title fighting Alexander who in my opinions style is all wrong for Kell was not the way to go.Kell will be in his 30s still fighting Ibf eliminators at this rate.

    Oh so Bradley didn't want the fight with Kell,did he call you up or txt you to tell you that?

    The Kell Brook offer was way after the Gamboa,Peterson and Berto talks they obviously approached Kell just before Provodnikov and Matchroom turned it down.Youve got your information right but it's all in the wrong order,I seriously doubt Kell Brook would be ahead of Gamboa,Berto and Peterson as choice of opponent for Tim he was obviously a last resort until they got Provodnikov.

    Stop making excuses they should have jumped at that fight,those are the type of fights that make guys stars.

    I wonder how much Carl Froch made going to America to fight Jermaine Taylor,I doubt it was much but that fight made him a star and he got his opportunity in the super six.

    Do you get what I'm trying to say or are you still going to defend Hearns bad judgement.

    The interviews with Hearn where he said Brook was offered $100k to fight Bradley and that he was getting 3x more to fight Alexander

    I hope it was worth it,he could have been out four times in the space it'll take him to ever fight Alexander.

    "approached Kell just before Provodnikov"

    Brook v Alexander was made in the beginning of November. Bradley v Provodnikov was announced 3 months later. So you are saying Arum tried to get Brook even though he was scheduled to fight Alexander and Matchroom were idiots to turn it down :lol:
