    Hearn has to put up the money as Bradley will come over to fight kell.

    Down to him to make the fight.

    not a fight i'd like to see though.

    I want Kell in with Khan, Thurman, Garcia

    then take the Errol Spence (if he keeps winning)

    Imagine how glorious that would be. In the UK there is money all those bar Spence

    Kevin Bizier is now IBF mandatory so it looks it will be him. Now if you've never heard of him, he already has two losses on his record to Ionut Dan Ion.

    Brook vs. Bradley would have to happen in America and be on PPV in the UK too for it to make financial sense I reckon.

    God. Why do the IBF keep forcing these stiffs on their champions?

    I bet Eddie absolutely loves it.

    I would be very surprised if Bradley was willing to travel for the fight. Would be a great fight though, hope it happens.

    He's got millions in the bank and can get a few more travelling to fight Kell whilst establishing himself as the man at 147 if he wins. The only reason he didn't take the Khan fight was because Pacquiao was on the horizon for 5x as much money. I don't blame him at all for that. it's not like he has loads of options to go and earn much more money unless Mayweather came back for fight 50 and selected him as his opponent.

    Khan would have prob been all over fighting him at 147 before he knocked out Rios but now... who knows if Amir still wants it? Khan, Bradley, Brook, Thurman, Porter etc. We have all the makings of a great run of welterweight fights if the guys at 147 start playing ball with each other.

    Between that and the We Belt Anyone farce it makes you want to not bother with the sport

    Three champs in a solitary division? I think its high time we stopped recognising their 'champions' as world champions no matter what version of the WBA belt they hold.

    If Brook beats Bradley and Thurman, he'd be among the best in the division.

    Fast Car and Kell outsmarted themselves when clearly Rios was looking for one last payday.Rios knew the end was near so he went for the big bucks on the HBO show.
    Truly,a missed opportunity.
