Eddie Hearns comments today in a interview on live fight .com LF: Whats the status of Brook v Porter? EH: Hes got six months as you know from when he won the title. Neither fighter can have a fight after April 10 because negotiations will start then. If Porter wants to defend his title he has to do it by April 10 which he will because everythings going well. From then neither him or Brook can have a fight because they will be the mandatory fight. :happy
