    He is saying he can for Khan and pac, and if he can’t then he is gunna get smashed at 154 by the likes of Hurd and Charlo. Lara, Trout, all these guys beat Brook imo. He has a good shot against Munguia and j rock but the big JMW with skills are gunna beat him and that’s why he doesn’t wanna mix it up with these guys.

    He had a title unification with Vargas lined up and he turned down the fight because he wasn’t getting enough but he should of took it and became unified to help set up bigger fights.

    And the $. Pac is still a draw. Not the draw he once was, but a solid draw.

    ‘As reported by Sky Sports, Rios looked as though he was going to fight Brook earlier in the year, but it was scrapped’
    -Bleacher Report

    ‘Briton Kell Brook has cancelled his IBF world welterweight title clash with Diego Chaves on Saturday, 24 October after sustaining a rib injury in sparring.’
    -BBC news
    (Yet he never took the new date to fight Chaves later hmmm)

    Kell Brook has said he rejected a fight with Timothy Bradley in favour of earning mandatory status with the IBF.
    -Skysports

    Word has it that although Vargas has already signed a fight agreement to face Brook with his promoter Top Rank, Brook has sort of stalled on finalizing the fight as he seeks a bigger slice of the pie. Brook's promoter Eddie Hearn says that Brook will have to take smaller cut than Vargas to get him to come across the pond -- something that isn't exactly to Brook's liking.

    A fight against Brook would not be easy for Manny. But I don't think Brook can make WW anymore.

    It's only logical if he can make the weight.

    I don't think he chose to stay at home. The big fights weren't there for him before Golovkin.

    It's hindsight. But I don't think Khan ever wanted the fight. Fighting GG finally gave him the exposure and the respect that he'd longed for. But it came at a huge price.

    I don't think he can do it safely.

    Khan would obviously demand the fight to be at WW knowing that it would give him a huge advantage. I think if they did fight it would have to be at a C-W.

    It's hindsight.

    He took huge fights against GG and Spence. But he took them at the wrong time IMO. It's just unfortunate circumstances.

    It’s not hindsight I said it when he signed for GGG, this guy is putting his life in danger seriously. After what happened to Khan with Canelo I could see one these guys might get themselves killed tryna one up each other.

    Stop making excuses for the stupid way this guy has navigated his career, he was a pro for 10 years till he fought for a title he then proceeded to beat up on bums for the next two then took a reckless fight with a heavy p4p puncher instead of a winnable unification. A lot of it is brooks fault and now he is wasting the last years of his career chasing this chinny con man Khan.

    That's a good idea, but 147 is to hard for Brook to make anymore isn't it? I freely admit since signing Khan the amount that Fast Car has talked about Brook has seemed to have dropped quite a bit. I thought Matchroom signing Khan was so making the Brook fight and much easier. But it seems like now with Hearn saying if Brook can't get Khan right away he'll ask for another big fight or retire. Like Eddie is hinting in his interviews that Brook might want to move on from Khan or hang up the gloves. What ever is really happening, it does seem like Eddie is now Khan's promoter with Brook being more and more of a after thought. Kinda feel for Kell, looking elsewhere if he wants to continue to be relevant is probably a good idea.
