Brook defends his title on March 28th in Sheffield but his opponent won't be named until this Thursday 22nd Jan at the press conference, i just checked the IBF Welter weight rankings and no one is ranked Number 1 in the division, just Brook as Champion then you have Dan Ion at number 2.
Why is there no immediate mandatory challenger in place already?
