    Such a waste of talent. Is clearly looking to cash out but doesn't have a god given right to a title fight like he seems to think

    He asked for his big fight and got it.

    Golovkin.

    He is trying to get a certain somebody to act on his promises if he fought Golovkin, that he would get more big fights and more money...

    But wait, somebody forgot to tell Kell that in order to get them big fights he would have to win against the aforementioned...

    Quite sad really, he saved the day by stepping up and has been chasing and getting ignored ever since...

    For big fight it means Brook wants a cash out fight.

    Brook sitting there saying I only want big fights when he doesn't want to build himself up to them must be frustrating for Hearn.

    Brook should only be in big fights at this point. Need to decide if he's a JMW or WW fighter and go after a strap straight up. Anything else ( bar Khan) is pointless, Eddie says a Smith fight is massive for Kell, but he probably thinking that ain't big enough!

    Is he even still training? 33, by the time he gets in the ring will be over a year since he fought. He has just given up waiting for that last cash out fight

    Kell Brook is not getting any younger let’s be real for a second here.

    In fact he just got older then.

    His career is almost done... wasted his best years.
    Cant see where he goes for a big fight. Hes going to have to earn and i don't think he wants to. He just wants a few million pay day and only Khan may generate that. Apparently Khan Pac is being talked about for November so that leaves Brook well out in the cold

    What Kell means is "I've retired but if the Khan fight comes up, I'm up for it."

    He should go for the Khan match up to cash out- to be honest they are about as bad as each other now and it would be a 50/50 fight.

    He's already had the big fights and was beaten up. Twice. In back-to-back fights.

    Said it loads of times, Brook can’t get up for any other fight except the Khan fight. Khan knows this and is just stringing him along, he holds all the cards. Brook must have thought that was it when he signed with Eddie and look what happened lol I feel for brook really, so much talent and it all just went wrong.

    I have never seen such a waste of UK talent ....I blame Brook a lot but Hearns matchmaking has been criminal
