    I think Brook should have been fighting an Austin Trout or a Julian Williams type opponent.

    Not really do the Maths, 16.95 times 275K. 16K Small Gate, Low Worldwide TV Rights. Brook's and Spence's purse probably didnt reach projected sums. Anything below 500K Buys is poor for Hearn and Sky

    Box office. WTF? The problem is the casual fans will pay hence why Hearn can do this. What happened to Hurd or Charlo? Hahah. Brook is a joke TBH. As soon as he fights a live opponent again its game over. Hearn is literally milking the cow before it gets put down. lol

    lol what you on about, £16.95 x 275k = £4,661,250
    and it was 27,000 not 16,000. 27,000 times say £80 average ticket = £2,160,000
    fight was shown £on showtime and spence is one of showtime's top guys so US tv would have been good money
    Total revenue = £6,821,250.
    brook isnt an aj or mayweather making 10s of millions, a million or 2 would be the most brook would earn from a ppv fight and he probably got that from spence fight.

    Every time I see the fight advertised I see, "Brook vs ****" and think; "Not for the first time".

    Cant agree more....probably UKs most talented fighter of a generation and should have wiped out the 147 division yet what did we get??

    Jojo Dan and Frankie fekkin Gavin then thrown to the lions...a bit of bad luck and a whole lot of bad management imo
