Just finished listening to the interview between Khan and IFL TV and to be honest Khan was spot on about what he had to say about Kell Brook and Eddie Hearn, hes got the public fooled into believing the hype that is Kell Brook yet he never delivers on the promises of fighting someone worthy of note. I mean Kieth thurman said he was willing to fight Brook in may so what stopped that from happening? Khan talks about possibly fighting Algerie and you everyone starts a riot and when Kell continues fighting domestic level opposition its only seen as a stay busy fight.
Here is the interview if you wanted to listen to it
More like 2-3 million for fighting Algieri. People don't realise that Khan is worth over 30million, he can retire tomorrow and be set for life, money is not his priority. Just because Khan doesn't want to give Kell that payday to set him for life doesn't give him the green card to fight scrubs until he gets it does it? Frankie Gavin then Bum bum Rios are terrible fights, why is he not fighting Thurman?
Khan has no room to talk. He's a joke. Brook tried to fight him and that's all that matters. it always kills me that guys says a guy hasn't fought anybody especially when there trying to fight them. If there not ready then beat them for a career high payday. Easy question who has Khan fought? Khan has lost and not avenged any loss or tough fight.
Khan hasn't flat out denied fighting Brook I'm sure well see the fight next year sometime, but having said that why won't Brook prove Khan wrong by taking on the likes ofHey Brother Lonnie, wasn't sure whom to ask. But figured you might have some good insight on the matter. I've been thinking about starting a small business locally, and in need of a business lawyer to go over the ins and outs with. But not sure whom to go see? Any suggestions? Thurman, Marquez, Bradley, I mean it's all well and good calling out names but when push comes to shove his gone back to fighting domestic level fighters.
And khans excuse for not fighting any of these guys next? Tho offered and turned down the Bradley fight!
Khan last 4 fights were Carlos Molina.. Julio Diaz.. Luis Collazo.. & Devon Alexander. Why not fight Brook, Maidana, Thurman or solve his Danny Garcia problems?
Khan sometimes says things which he doesn't always think about properly, heat of the moment kind of stuff. He said the fight could be worth up to 100mill, lmao.
He is getting 5 million POUND, not dollars for this fight. That's more money than he'd get fighting Floyd or Manny.
Let' be honest though, why has Brook got Marquez (would be over a year since he last fought), Frankie Gavin (LOL) and Rios in his crosshairs? Why aren't Thurman, Maidana, Bradley being mentioned?
I am not happy with the Algerie fight but its not as bad as some people are making out especially the Brook fans even though its a way better than a Gavin fight. The reason Brook needs some criticism is because he was calling out all these top names but he then goes on to fight Gavin and then lines up this pathetic super fight in the summer with Rios who isn't even a top 10 WW. It's worse when the only name in your whole 29 year career is Porter, a guy who was lucky to get a win over Julio Diaz. Thats the only name Brook has on his resume, he has been fighting Tomato cans for all his career and now that he's got a world title he hasn't changed his tune, he wants to carry on fighting tomato cans. Its a disgrace really, atleast Khan has fought more than 10 former world champions.
Porter> alexander
Brook>algeiri
Floyd could very well fight to 50-0 we just don't know. Pac was in negotiations with Khan not long before the mayweather fight took some steam after that Miami game meeting. So they are willing to work together, Haymon and Arum are working now arent they, so they will work again.
50 -0 wouldn't be this year though. And Khan met with pacquiao. Arum didn't meet with haymon. It's a difference. That was all just a smoke screen. Arum and haymon are working together too make the biggest fight in history. It's a difference between Floyd - Manny and manny-khan.
If pacquiao loses. Arum is gonna bring him back against a top rank fighter. Vargas and Crawford. Why would arum share pacquiao revenue when he doesn't have too. Khan vs pacquiao is never gonna happen.
Brook mentioned him a few times and he was okay with coming to UK and then Team Brook went silence on it.
Didn't Khan say he wanted Thurman, Brook and Maidana a little while ago?
Should I post that in every thread going involving Khan because he once mentioned it?
The fact that "He needs to help Eddie hearns card out" excuse. What kind of pathetic excuse is that. Why doesn't he fight Bradley instead of Gavin? Why doesn't he then fight Thurman who has been calling him out. The "Bigger summer fight" your talking about is a Rios fight. I am sorry but that is not a big fight, Rios is not a top 10 WW he is a punching bag, a former lightweight champ who got a gift vs Abril, who lost to Alvarado, who was losing to Chaves before the DQ who got absolutely destroyed vs Pacquiao like Algerie did. But Algerie is a former 140lb champion who beat the monster in provodnikov and he also beat Taylor who gave broner hell. Heck I'd back Algerie over Rios in a fight.
Nobody said he 'needs' to help the card, you added that part yourself. He is, however, taking a fight on short notice for the May 30 card....You expect Bradley to fight on 4 weeks notice? You think Hearn is going to pay Bradley his guaranteed purse on top of paying Linares? Despite the fact that Bradley will be a mandatory soon and as per the rules only be entitled to 25% of the purse?
Honestly, there is thinking with pure bias and there is simple logic
Rios is 2-1 with Alvarado, 2-1 at Welterweight and didn't lose anywhere near as embarrassingly to Pac as the caged animal Algieri did. He's also a far bigger name. It's not a great fight, but it's solid considering Khan b!tched out.
:lol1: ffs why are you constantly trying to fob Thurman off to Brook?
Brook mentioned him a few times and he was okay with coming to UK and then Team Brook went silence on it.
Thurman has been calling out a lot of people. You even said this yourself.
You tell Brook to fight Thurman but Khan can fight whoever and you're always cool with it. You can't say a bad thing about Khan without you or Box Office chiming in to save your hero. You're hating on Brook for calling out Khan yet isn't that what Khan was doing with Mayweather? But it's ok because it's Khan and he can do no wrong.

Floyd is fighting in september. How is khan gonna have a full training camp for a September fight during Ramadan ?
Khan isn't getting a fight with Floyd in 2015. And Pac isn't gonna fight anybody outside of top rank unless it's floyd. So that's bull****.
Khan wants everybody too believe he is stuck fighting the algeiri's of the world while he waits for the winner of may - Pac when all real boxing fans know the moment they signed too fight each other that Khan shot at fighting one of them went out the window for 2015
Floyd could very well fight to 50-0 we just don't know. Pac was in negotiations with Khan not long before the mayweather fight took some steam after that Miami game meeting. So they are willing to work together, Haymon and Arum are working now arent they, so they will work again.
Because Thurman has been calling out Brook for a while now and they ignore him like he doesn't exist. He is willing to come to the UK but Brook and Hearn keep calling out Khan even though they know he won't fight them until next year but then go on to fight the likes of Frankie Gavin and Bum Bum Rios. Do you not see the hypocrisy here?

You can't be 100% certain they wont happen later on in the year can you? Afterall they've already negotiated with khan so it can be made rather quickly and easily, making both parties a lot of money. Broner won't fight at 147, he wants a catchweight. Thurman can't fight that early due to a hematoma, Porter is not being mentioned for anybody anywhere. So that leaves Algerie and Brook. We know the story with Brook, so Algerie is only option that is feasible.
As for Brook, he can fight Bradley instead of Gavin and he can fight Thurman, heck he can give Porter a rematch. Instead he wants to fight Gavin and then Bum Bum rios.
So khan can't fight thurman because of a hematoma. But Brook can fight thurman? You not even making sense
Brook should fight porter again for what?
why doesn't khan fight porter? They have the same manager
Point out the excuse please, and let me know what it's an excuse for.
Brook wanted the biggest fight available, Khan ran from it asking Brook to beat top level opposition....while he fights Algieri who is coming off an embarrassing beat down.
Brook's bigger fight was set for the summer, confirmed immediately after the Dan fight. This next fight is an under card filler, and a crap one.

Atleast Khan is somewhat honest in that he's essentially said he wants to cherry pick his next fight in the hope he can get Floyd next IF Floyd beats Pac (Possibly encouraged by Al Haymon)
Still I think that's a waste of time for Khan and a shame for the fans.
The bottomline is: Nobody should be supporting Brook or Khan with their next opponents...
Vote Chief Keith Thurman for President.
Floyd is fighting in september. How is khan gonna have a full training camp for a September fight during Ramadan ?

The excuses from brook fans are just getting more and more pathetic by the day.

Like I said Khan doesn't care about finance, he is filthy rich. Khan doesn't need Kell at all, but Kell needs Khan. Without Khan Kell makes 100-200 grand per fight, with Khan he can make a couple of million. Khan knows this and doesn't want to give it to him because he rightly believes Kell hasn't fought enough top level competition so he wants kell to go out and fight top 10 fighters before they fight. Instead of doing that Kell is lining up bums for the remainder of the year until he can call khan out again for a payday.
Khan vs may and khan vs Pac ain't happening and neither is khan vs cotto. So stop with the fantasy fights.
Khan choices are brook, thurman, Porter, algeiri, broner
You tell me which one is the biggest event for khan?
You can't be 100% certain they wont happen later on in the year can you? Afterall they've already negotiated with khan so it can be made rather quickly and easily, making both parties a lot of money. Broner won't fight at 147, he wants a catchweight. Thurman can't fight that early due to a hematoma, Porter is not being mentioned for anybody anywhere. So that leaves Algerie and Brook.

they are both cherry picking that is for sure but khan's standards are even lower than brook's so i'm not sure how anyone can defend him
