    according to fast cars blog on the Sky Sports website Brook will be fighting one of these 5 in September or October.

    Shane Mosley, Robert Guerrero, Vyashaslev Senchenko, Chris Van Heerden and Josesito Lopez.

    who do people think it will be then?

    If it's Van Heerden, that is not a big fight anybody but him can be classed as a big fight out of them 5, he's the IBO champion, they've both fought Matt Hatton and Brook dominated much easier than Van Heerden.

    Senchenko I reckon, possibly Mosley but can't see any of the other 3. Guerrero will be able to make good money in US on back of Mayweather fight, Lopez is too much of a lose/lose situation after so many stoppage defeats recently and Van Heerden isn't quite a big enough name for the way they've all been going on. In an interview Kugan was shown a name from Eddie in regards to this fight and he said it was a big name, his boxing knowledge is pretty **** so I reckon that narrows it to Mosley, Senchenko or The Ghost

    It's Senchenko, it's obvious.

    i reckon its senchenko too just cant see mosely coming to england but if he did id have a sneaky tenner on a upset even though he would prob get ripped off by the judged like glen johnson did againts clinton woods.

    How many of those are truly big fights? Guerrero and that's it?

    Mosley's washed up, Senchenko is just meh, van Heerden isn't a big fight and Lopez has lost 3 out of the last 4.

    Will probably be Senchenko. Any of those names would be decent except Van Heerden.

    Senchenko is a tall welterweight a gate keeper onto elite level, Mosleys a legend whos been in there with the best and is a massive name in boxing, Guerro is coming off a loss to mayweather, all three of them are big fights for a fighter whos best win is againts Michael Jennings.

    lopez would be a great fight. Thats the one I'd pay to see. Tough fight for Kell too.

    Lopez would be a good fight, but people afterwards would say oh he was always rubbish, Senchenko could appeal to the casuals and could call the show revenge or something like that and with Senchenko not fighting since I'm sure he wouldn't cost that much as nobody wants to fight him really, low risk low reward.

    id be happy with any of them apart from Mosley he is just to old imo. i want to see Brook in there with a talented younger fighter that can match up to him physically.

    lopez i would like to see but i dont think brook would get the credit if he beat him (which i dont think he would )

    mosley again if brook beats him ppl will just say he beat up an old man

    guerro i donk think brook would have a shot against but it would big a big fight for him

    dont know to much about the other two out of the five i would go with lopez but this is boxing and ya never know what name will pop up

    All of them are pretty poor fights apart from Guerrero

    meh, i didn't wanna see him fight mosley.. but after seeing these names i'd much prefer it to van heerden, lopez and senchenko.. guerreros a good fight tho..

    can heerden isn't a name so can't be him surely, lopez is a decent fight and i guess i wouldn't mind it but the guys lost 3 outta 4 n personally i think he should drop down weight, these guys are too big and strong for him. It's clearly going to be senchenko, he 'beat' hatton, is a known name in the uk because of it (before it nobody had a clue who he was unless you follow boxing) .. he was a former world champ.. he'l be easy to get to the uk... clearly senchenko. I was going to buy tickets for this fight, not anymore knowing who the opponent is.
