    Biggest pay day??? i doubt it, would probably get a shite offer, better to go IBF route and if he gets the title he has more bargaining power, plus trust Arum at your peril Right Mr Abril??? oh yeah and you Manny

    Well in their eyes Jones was the final eliminator until the Ibf quickly stuck Alexander in front of him to fight bailey , politics hey :smoke

  7. Can't believe Hearn turned it down.
    Won't get that many better oportunities than that.

    I think it was probably a wise move for him, but, his quotes make no sense and make him sound like he is ducking:

    "we begun this journey with the goal of becoming a mandatory challenger and now we are just one win away"

    Wait, what? You could fight for a belt now against Bradley, but, you'd rather fight for the right to petition a sanctioning body to force the champ to fight you within 6 months? WHAT?!?!?!?

    This is about Brook getting a better option to fight Bradley down the line, from what i've heard the offer was shite$ At present brook would have to go to the US to fight Bradley , not a great favourite with fans at present, plus with Arum flying with his cigar up above the ring* hissing im gonna Fook you off* Arum cant` be trusted as was seen with the Rios - Abril fight , and he stabbed Manny in the back.

    Better brook fights the winner of bailey-Alexander, as a mandatory the winner has no choice but to fight or drop the belt. If Brook is world champ then he has the power with Hearn to Bargain the terms etc

    :deal exactly. And what if say Alexander decides to unify with Paulie or do a fight with a Josisito Lopez for example? What does brook do then? This is why I can absolutely guarentee there will be another bum fight or maybe 2 in Sheffield after Saldivia. It's like they are selling it to the public that IBF number 1 means an automatic title fight next and that is just not the case. And if they think they are going to get someone like Devon Alexander to go to Sheffield they are living in cloud cukoo land

    For all you know the money/conditions could have been shocking for the Bradley fight. Can't call him a ducker because he said no, until you know the full story

    ok forget the payday, what if he loses his next few fights on close points?
    where does he go from there?
    your career can change in a punch, if you will
