    Don't want to make the thread about Brook (or need to defend him) but was there plenty of big fights to make? It takes two to tango. Ignoring that he got his leg chopped off, was blatantly swerved by Khan and faced two mandatories, remember he went to the states to beat Porter.

    If those American fighters are not willing to come here - as long as the dosh is right - why should he be expected to travel?

    Vargas was getting more than Brook to come here. That prick Brandon Rios was scared to come to the UK because he'll get robbed.

    Yeah it takes two to tango but still...Frankie fucking Gavin

    To be honest I'd completely forgot about him having his leg amputated, that had completely slipped my mind, I suppose I might be being a tad harsh on him

    BJS and Jr don't get any passes though

    I believe Saunders had an injured wrist/hand part of the time, but that didn't keep him from taking on GGG, Canelo, etc etc.. (in interviews) The sanctioning bodies need to tighten the rules on belt holders, or at least on single belt holders and impose stricter limits on inactivity, negotiating windows, etc etc.

    At this point any belt holder who has immediate mandatories waiting in line is able to stall out the sanctioning body by claiming he's in talks with another high profile fighter. The other fighter is being done a favor if he's not obligated to fighting someone already (by giving him an opportunity to stall-- if hes already obligated he can be sued for breach on contract) and doesn't raise a stink about it because these half hearted, pipe dream negotiations aren't really meant to set up the fight. Its just a background stalling method to keep the one belt champ lazy and comfortable, hide injuries, cycle out PED's and prolong their reign till a real big money superfight opportunity is being dropped in their lap.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
