    that's debatable
    but porter was a 'coming out' fight
    a lot of questions were hanging over brook before this fight (especially after jones 1)

    For me, Brook actually answered a lot of questioned I had about him in Jones 1, about his heart and toughness. The conditioning thing was irrelevant because he didn't train for the fight- yes that raised questions about his commitment (which, I think will one day be his undoing) but had little doubt he'd be up for it last week.

    I'd love to see Bundu getting a shot. I think he's going to give Kell Brook hell.

    :good of the 5 on the list, the only 1 that would surprise me to see Brook beat easily is Bundu. Stylistically I could see him beating the others guys quite easily- although I'd envisage Marquez having a strong finish in the last 4, but being too far behind.

    Brook has to be very confident after the confidence booster with his close win over Porter, it also raised his stock. Marquez tho old, is still too much for Brook. I'd rather want a Brook-Bradley fight Bradley would really push Brook to the limit and along with Jmm are ALOT smarter than Porter. Porter looked amateurish and still gave Brook a hard time. Special K has worldclass skills, but I don't see him on the same level as Bradley to outbox Jmm. He'd trouble Jmm with his jab, but doesn't have the defense of a Bradley or Mayweather.

    I think JMM is just to small for Brook ..Not a good fight for JMM

    It will be Bundu or Lopez
    Brook cant afford to lose this no way they make him fight Marquez or Thurman now

    Exactly thats why releasing Thurman and Marquez's name is just pointless

    Can't see Marquez coming to the UK.

    Thurman fight won't happen in his 1st defence. To dangerous a fight which would then scupper chances of Brook v Khan, add in the fact Khan will be fighting on the same bill Hearn will want Brook to shine.

    I'd like to see Bundu get a crack at a world title. Although I think Brook beats him, he's bagged himself 2 impressive performances on UK shows and has built a bit of a name for himself here off the back of those wins. Think he's #2 or #3 with the IBF also. Only thing is Hearn doesn't seem keen as US TV is interested in the fight and Bundu isn't a big name in the states.

    It will be either Lopez or Rios, I can see it being Rios.

    I thought Lopez was a possible for Khan??

    I don't think it will be any of the above...but if it were, i'd like to see Kell fight JMM, but of that list, my guess would be Bundu!

    From that list, Thurman.
