    Why would it have to go to the UK?

    You never know they might win the bid and stage it in the US.

    It doesn't matter where it is, Spence will go home with the belt

    Spot on pal. He either has Spence fight the Uma Thurman- Cherry Garcia winner or offers Khan to Brook as an alternative. Not a chance in hell Haymon risks Spence like that.

    You really believe Haymon with the current status would win a pursebid against Hearn with British PPV in his corner?

    With Brook's status in the UK now against the US golden goose? certainly!
    Even bigger domestic fights with Brook in it would be PPV right now. Not that I like that but that's just the way it is now.

    I don't follow UK PPV'S but I can assume Kell Brook has only ever headlined 1 PPV and that is the GGG fight?

    I thought Sky sets aside a certain number of events per year and all AJ fights are PPV?


    Spence isn't even a big name in America how is it a certainty to be a PPV? it's not a grudge match and Brook is not AJ?

    You can't just make it PPV and people would buy it can you?, I bet it would flop badly?

    Next you will tell me Brook vs Eggington is Ppv? Who else apart from Khan could Brook fight on PPV domestically?

    Usually it keeps being PPV after that, unless there's a real bad mismatch.
    Sure they'll find a date for Brook. It's not like Joshua eats up all the dates.
    No, but he's posted as the next big thing. Brits will eat that up and call "another Lacy" on him, like that somehow would be relevant
    They most certainly can. I've never seen one tank badly like in the US lately... The UK is where the US was in the pre May vs Pac era.
    Don't forget Brook is a force from 147 to 160 now, with lots of domestic foes to chose from... sure some of the bigger ones can be PPV

    I suppose we have had much worse like SBW vs Tillman and 99% of JP's fights and we pay a bit more than you do

    I hope Brook can start getting these fights let's see what he's really got.

    I was pretty confident that Khan was next, but the DSG comments sound like Khan may stall again.

    It seems like such a logical crossroads fight right now, they need to strike while the iron is hot.

    It's irrelevant, either way Spence takes 25%. Haymon could be stupid and pay over the odds to win the purse but then he has a fight he has to try and make money with rather than lose money. Is Spence worth such an expense considering his opponent is brook who could win the fight.

    I'm not convinced at all Haymon is prepared to take such a risk.

    I feel Spence will have to demand the fight and only that fight.

    I'll see it when I believe it, it's sad that we have to credit boxers for fighting their mandatories anyways.

    Well it technically wasnt as he got added very late on once the first Fury/Wlad fight fell though as he was going to fight as a joint PPV event and gavin was an easy matchup to make for Eddie.

    Alot of the arena emptied out when Brook came on
