    I agree I don't think Hearn has done a great job with him, but I suppose in fairness he has got him world title shots, but Brook has pulled out of them

    Getting anyone to come here and fight with a title is probably almost impossible atm.

    Hearn got him the Alexander shot already, wasnt his fault Brook and Alexander got injured.

    I think Hearn has been caught between holding out for mandatory spots to be enforced (think thats why Brook fought Jones?) instead of going and forcing the issue with belt holders. Either way its all took too long due to his hesitancy and Brooks injuries

    on the other hand i will say eddie hearn did nothing to build kell brook in usa .. by bringing all the fights to Sheffield he has done kell no favours... even lining up a fight with PM as an undercard fight in USA would have done kell's career wonders had he won... but instead went after PM's leftovers in his hometown :patsch

    have you been to a Brook fight in Sheffield?it is electric .... if Brook can ,with a lot of luck and better management actually get a belt he could have some bumper nights in that arena

    Here's my prediction Brian Rose fights Andrade, They get him over to the UK Andrade is robbed blind and then that will set up Rose vs Brook for the WBO LMW title end of 2014 mark it down people that's my prediction.

    Rose is like watching paint dry though ...

    I have lost faith in Brook, I doubt he even beats Ortiz tbh.

    Either way it isn't worth thinking about Kell Brook for at least 6 months

    Yes he did know... he just thought devon and porter would rematch. Nobody had heard that he'd be possibly fighting thurman, it was news to everyone.

    I reckon this has been nailed on for a long time,and is overdue,although I have never really liked this fight myself.Theyve been waiting for the right time for it to happen,preferably with a world title on the line.Paul likes Britain,and is coming to the end of his career.At a catchweight,significant weight advantage for Kell,would they make the match if theres no title shot on the horizon?

    If your prediction regarding Rose and Andrade comes true,the 2nd part will be proved right like night follows day.Absolutely certainty.
