Brook wants to fight winner of Mayweather-Pacquiao

Kell Brook has set his sights on a welterweight unification bout against the winner of Saturday night's long-anticipated fight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao.

After years of wrangling, the sport's two biggest names will finally get in the ring in Las Vegas where Mayweather's WBA and WBC straps will be on the line alongside Pacquiao's WBO belt.

Brook holds the IBF version of the welterweight title and, provided he successfully defends that against domestic rival Frankie Gavin later this month, the Sheffield fighter would relish a shot at unifying the division.

"I'm going to take care of Frankie Gavin on May 30," he told Sky Sports News.

"We've got pencilled in a fight in August but if the fight comes for September, I'd absolutely grab it with both hands - a unification fight with the winner.

"They're getting on, Pacquiao and Mayweather, so I'd love to lock horns with them before their time is out.

"I'm open to a unification."
