    This isn't going to happen. Not least because Top Rank aren't even Jones' promoters, it's Russell Peltz, the guy who has traditionally promoted all the Philly fighters, he just has a 'relationship' with Top Rank whereby Jones fights on their bills & they take a percentage.

    Regardless, I believe he's already said that unless the offer to fight Brook was astronomical, it makes a lot more sense to get HBO exposure on a Manny Pacquiao card than to fight Brook in England. Probably better for Brook because if the Jennings fight is any indicator, then Jones is well ahead of him. Even if his opponents may not look it on paper, they're of a fair higher standard than Brook's imo.

    I reckon Brook should try to make a fight with Clottey, we've seen the blueprint of how to beat him, plus he's a big name off the Pac fight & given how he performed there, I doubt he's got many options on HBO

    Mike Jones is awesome, and I am starting to get impatient about how long it is taking him to get a big fight.

    Same with us about Brooks, let them fight one another.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    SHIT!!

    Warren and Arum have come to an agreement that both will fight after there next fights so Jones stays ont he Pac card and Brook fights on the December Bill at the Excel.

    Who do you think Warren should get for Brook? O Donnell would be my choice with Fat Mick not having a tv contract should be alot easier to make? If not Craig Watson would be good but he is contracted to Hatton and especially after Franks kind words of support to Ricky doubt this will happen now.

    if theres a fight against jones lined up for 2011, i would not be surprised to see brook in no more than a filler contest...possibly even back in with jennings
    one dangerous horrible bloke
