    Bradley?
    Khan?
    Brook?
    Thurman?

    These 4 can't avoid each other forever.

    Right now it looks like Khan Brook is the most likely fight to happen first in 2016.

    Bradley is held hostage & can only venture outside the Top Rank stable if Arum is willing to negotiate.

    Also possible Khan or Thurman might step up and fight Porter who is also a decent top 10 fighter. Khan Porter at the end of year isn't too bad. I think Thurman is out with an injury?

    Forget Pacquiao and Floyd for the moment. Although you know Khan will fap around if he still has a chance at one of them in 2016.

    D.Garcia throws another option in there. Porter would be interested in him no doubt. Khan might in the rematch but way more hesitant than he was a year or two ago. Brook might also be interested...especially if Paulie lasts 12 rounds tomorrow.

    The spectre of a Mayweather fight has the whole damned division paralyzed. All of them are being matched up with softer than necessary opposition because a loss knocks them out of the running.

    Maybe after Mayweather retires we can actually get some of these fights.

    The business of boxing ruins the sport of boxing.

    Brook's been pushing for the Khan fight for a while now, but Khan keeps moving the goal posts.
