    Which is a shame..
    But i guess that makes way for a big summer and winter of two defences.

    So it will be Kevin Bizier or JoJo Dan then, I guess.
    Brook was most likely going to get a soft touch anyways for his first fight back in the UK after winning the belt.
    Not going to risk a potential big money fight with Khan.

    I seen some talk about Brook fighting Bradley. I'd like to see that one.:good

    Really sad that we have these paper belts,and also the challengers are totally undeserving.nobody probably rate those two in top 10 nevermind top 5.

    Hell Brook is maybe borderline top 5 at best.

    Luckily i don't rate these papertitlist at all.Brook is solid contender and could someday be the real WW king.

    Do you consider Brook as a real champion then?

    I'm just hating the system,and that Brook can defend his belt against some fringe top 25fighter.

    Especially when WW is loaded with talent and great matchups.

    I would like to see Brook against.Marquez,Maidana,Bradley etc.. You know against top quality fighter.so he could claim having titleshot against WW champion Floyd Mayweather.

    Brook won his title legitimately and on foreign soil. There were a lot of people picking him to lose that fight(me included).
    I'm not really sure what your beef is here:blood

    Even without the leg injury, Brook wasn't going to fight someone like Thurman next. There's too much money in a fight with Khan to risk losing that belt.
    Doesn't mean we have to like it, but that's the way the game goes.

    Money plays a major role in it and there's no denying that but I there is also a healthy dose of respect and a wee bit of fear. I can understand that cause Thurman knocks out Brook caliber fighters. Just saying.
