    I really don't understand how Brook is being handled. It makes me wonder if they know of some major weakness they are trying to hide. He looks like he could challenge anyone but for years they put off a title challenge. They finally stepped up to the weakest champion and now they have regressed again. If a Rios fight happens I will become a hater.

    Seems it won't take much then. Seriously where is the big line of people calling him out? Who would you like him to fight ? He fought away from home against a supposed monster nobody gave him a chance against, had his leg chopped up by a machete, and then came back and fought his mandatory at home, Who he destroyed. I don't rate Gavin much either but the IBF have him at 5. Manny and Floyd are busy. Thurman has not said a thing. Khan has turned down a career high payday.
    Won't take much? He is scheduling soft before he is even in soft! He has fought one good fighter in his career. Thurman will fight him if he makes any effort to make a Thurman fight.

    Brook is the real deal but as has been stated the other top fighters are tied up. Brooks would batter JMM or Rios but they are high profile fights for him.

    Cash grabs. JMM may never get in the ring again because his knee is so bad and Rios should never get in the ring again because he's been a punching bag for years. I want to see Brook challenge for being the best in the division. There are 10 fights better than Dan(mandatory so okay), 10 better than Gavin(same promotional outlet so understandable) and 10 better than Rios. Sorry but 3 fights into your reign and none are against a guy considered near the best in your division, that isn't right. It isn't set so fingers crossed it doesn't happen. Thurman would be available, Maidana would be available, hell Errol Spence would beat the dog snot out of Rios. Fight him, fight some live body.

    Brook v Thurman would be brilliant and the winner would put them in the strongest position to fight the winner Floyd v Pac Man. This fight is 50/50 both are strong, young and undefeated. I think Thurman's people may not want that.

    Brook beats Maidana and everybody else.
