    Him club'? I think so.

    To me, even though he holds a title, nobody 'needs' him.

    He isn't a name.

    He hasn't got a profile.

    He doesn't have an exciting style.

    He might just be the most irrelevant champ at WW.

    Thoughts?

    He holds a world title so someone will always want to fight him and being unknown in the states means a lot of people will think hes not that good and a weak champ so could be considered and easy mark for top fighters. I think he is good and can beat quite a few top ww

    in the states especially he is a low money unlikely to win type of opponent. khan certainly needs him as he represents the biggest realistic payday in the near future.

    If a WW wants to win a title then fighting Brook is a good option. he may be easier to beat than the other champs. Also Pacquiao and Floyd pick their opponents quiet carefully, they won't just fight anyone so Brook is an option for the people Floyd and Pac won't fight.

    After May 2 there will be 2 world champions. Surely a fight with one of them for a title at Wembley and a £5m purse is one of the biggest fights in boxing.

    He only needs to win one fight with a relatively high profile guy and people will pay attention, I'm sure at least one of those top ten welter a without a belt will face him

    of course he's the least relevant ww champ. the other 2 are pac and floyd.

    I think brook is exciting to watch.

    I think the occasion against porter got to brook a bit that night, he could've performed better but porter ain't easy for anyone to look good against.

    Brook still has a few more gears to go in, I reckon we'll see this in his next fight.

    So pleased he got a title fight and his dream came true, I always thought he had a lot of potential when I first saw him box, not many come along and I think 'this guy could go all the way' both froch and haye had that look about them early on too.

    You telling me the winner of mayweather and pac wont want to own all 3 belts of the division by fighting brook? Mayweather would love nothing more than to retire 50-0 with all 3 belts.

    Perhaps you're still bitter after predicting that Porter would smash him.

    It should be any boxers dream to win a world title. Especially at the same weight as Mayweather and Pacman.
    The fights for Kell will come

    Most of the WW guys stateside keep dropping Brooks name when talking about possible opponents, Thurman seems very keen on the fight (a fight I really like BTW)

    I'm pretty sure if / when he deals with Dan then there will be no end of fights open to him
