Matchroom wanted July 7th in UK but Golden Boy wanted 18th August in US. Neither side would budge. According to Dan Rafael.
Why doesn't Kell fight in the US? I mean, Amir was friggin 23 when he made his US debut. I don't wanna see Kell fight bums no more. It's time for him to step up the competition.
This was the perfect opportunity for Brook to hit the big stage. They should have taken the offer. Although Brook did fight on the Froch/Ward show.
Exactly. And it was also a very winnable fight. Who gives a f*ck if Brook fought on the Froch/Ward show. He was still fighting a solid bum.
If true then that's seriously disappointing by Kell Brook and match room. Kinda just says 'we are happy fighting eurobums thanks' **** poor. Don't shout Khan out when your only prepared to fight eurobums in England. **** **** poor if true
"I want them big fights in the states, against them top guys (as long as it isnt anyone who can punch, has any skill and definately nobody in the top ten, not until khan moves up at least)"
"they say i should go and fight in alexander the states. but why should i go there and fight infront of 5000 when i can fight someone like n'dou at home infront of 10000 and pack out these massive arenas" - kell brook on fighitng stateside.
"why should i fight a guy who has moved up from 140 and already had a fight at the weight, when infact i should be fighting a guy like khan who hasnt had a fight at the weight yet?" - kell brook on fighting blown up lww's
He'd have to fight Alexander in St. Louis. **** that, you ain't getting a decision there. And Khan only went over to the US cos he ain't a draw over here :hey
Either St. Louis or some half empty arena somewhere else. Why do that when he can sell 10k tickets in Sheffield? Eddie's building an attraction with Brook so why mess that up?
