Will Amir Khan Use Ramadan To Duck Kell Brook AGAIN?

Eddie Hearn has proposed a date of Saturday June 4th for Khan-Brook to take place at Wembley Stadium and has sent financial projections for the fight to Team Khan. Google tells me that Ramadan starts Monday June 6th. After getting heat from the media for ducking Brook earlier this summer, Khan desperately and pathetically used his religion as an excuse for why he didn't take the fight before going on to fight Chris Algieri. He said he needed a while to "prepare" for Ramadan....which most people realised was complete bollox since he'd fought shortly before Ramadan in the past. Will Khan use the same excuse to duck the fight again? He will use this for however many ramadans it takes for allah to fix his chin. :lol1:

Brook doesn't want the Khan fight He doesn't want any big fights as I said his plan with Hearn is to cal out big names and then fight bums After that he pretends the world is avoiding him Until brook finally signs I won't believe it dirk And I do think Khan will easily win but if brook does win then I will say congrats but for some reason I can't see you doing the same if Khan wins dirk Possibly the most idiotic comment of the year.

also dirk, you are being thick here, i thought, you were saying khan needs more than 2 weeks, you are saying he is ducking because he needs more than 2 days lol? are you stupid dude? boxers can be pissing for days after some fights. I really do think for a boxer a week should be fair but I still don't get why hearn offered 2 days before the start of ramadan, for me he knows khan will say no and would want an earlier date I now think they are doing what they did always, give unrealistic offers to duck the fight and then fool the public in blaming the other guy. if brook really wanted the fight, he would offer like a date near the end of may. clear duck move to say they will only fight in june. looks like he has ducked chaves too Well if Team Khan can arrange a May date for Wembley then make a counter offer. It's not difficult if they actually want the fight.

Faking an injury to duck Chaves may be worse.

Is that your boyfriend in your avi, Goober? dont hate on the genetically superior being dirk

At least I admitted it. I just found it weird to think that Khan would want to take days off before Ramadan, but then I thought about how fighters have headaches, injuries, etc. for weeks... so it makes sense. You mean you used logic and common sense for once. But then you realised "Oh sh1t, I'm an Amir Khan arse-licker, I must agree with everything he says"

HAHAHAHAAH this is way too funny. Thank you to my boy Dirk for this epic pwnage of that retard. Khan has the followers he deserves, just as dumb as him. At least I admitted it.

I don't really care. I just want to see the fight because I'm a boxing fan. I actually thought Khan would win this fight for a long time and I was neutral on who I wanted to win. Khan b1tching out has made it easier for me to root for Brook. It's not really about Brook though, I've been pretty critical of him. It would just give me great pleasure to see Khan get smashed.

we all know dirk would sport a khan sig and avi if he beat brook Is that your boyfriend in your avi, Goober?

Dude, like I said: Khan NEVER EVER SAID that he won't fight Brook right before Ramadan. Basically: Khan cannot train or fight during Ramadan. He can BEGIN TRAINING A MONTH AFTER RAMADAN IS OVER. AND HE CAN DEFINITELY FIGHT EVEN A DAY BEFORE RAMADAN BEGINS. KHAN HAS NEVER SAID THAT HE WON'T FIGHT KELLY 2 DAYS PRIOR TO RAMADAN. THAT'S RIDICULOUS. I have no idea why he said that. It doesn't make any sense. You'll have to ask him that, but he wasn't talking about Brook. He was talking about Cotto. Actually it makes sense as to why he said that: Boxing isn't easy. Most fighters after a fight will feel headaches, and what not. Some might be injured, or piss blood... It makes sense. Before Ramadan starts, Khan would want to take a couple of weeks off, get the headaches away, hydrate, get healthy and then go through Ramadan (which is tough because your'e going 14-16 hours without food or water). So, let the guy take a couple of weeks off before Ramadan. He needs to. If you ever fought in the ring, you'd understand. I never ever saw him saying that before. I didn't think about the fact that post-fight, fighters have to go through so much crap (headaches, sleepless nights, pain, injuries, blood pissing) and to recover, it takes a few weeks. And obviously a fighter would want to enjoy post-fight also. I just thought about it now, so it makes complete sense for him to do that, and he should because it's not healthy to fast right after the fight. I admit that I didn't think about a fighter's sufferings after a fight and him then fasting right afterwards. HAHAHAHAAH this is way too funny. Thank you to my boy Dirk for this epic pwnage of that retard. Khan has the followers he deserves, just as dumb as him.

Should not have made this thread lol Will be embarrassing when brook ducks Khan again by fighting another Bum and then pretending the world is ducking him Until brook fights someone with a pulse he has no standing no matter how much you try to con people here dirk Just look at this guys resume and you can easily tell he is a fraud who built his career fighting rubbish yup. OP will feel stupid when Khan beats the crap out of over-rated and untested Brook.

Is Khan not "someone with a pulse"? I think you're afraid that he won't have a pulse after Brook's done with him. Brook doesn't want the Khan fight He doesn't want any big fights as I said his plan with Hearn is to cal out big names and then fight bums After that he pretends the world is avoiding him Until brook finally signs I won't believe it dirk And I do think Khan will easily win but if brook does win then I will say congrats but for some reason I can't see you doing the same if Khan wins dirk

khan himself said he had one of the best chins in boxing. he's not an airtight source for information:lol1: according to what i'm looking at for UK pop press sources, manny and floyd did 700K in uk PPV, which is pretty substantial considering that froch and groves did 900 in the rematch, and that's considered one of the biggest british fights ever. that says a lot about the drawing power of floyd mayweather in the UK and on ppv. it indicates that he'd be entitled to some of the UK ppv, but he's not entitled to all of it. that represents a very significant source of revenue in addition to a guarantee that would, without a doubt, be higher than berto's 4 million That's his opinion re: his chin. He knows the numbers being offered for his own fights. Why would he admit that Brook was a bigger payday if it wasn't true? He could say Mayweather paid more as another excuse to duck Brook. That's what you'd call a "straw man" argument, isn't it? Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquaio was the biggest fight of all time. Otherwise Mayweather hasn't even on PPV in the UK except against Hatton which did around a million buys. Khan is not Hatton.

Negotiations are supposedly under way but haven't they been in those since Brook was still a Domestic fighter? It's not gonna happen, period. I used to think Khan would easily take care of Brook - complete u-turn now. The fights bound to happen, there's too much money and Khan knows he may no longer get the May or Pac fights, so this is the only money fight left, outside of Bradley (feasible) or Cotto (unrealistic). Whether or not it's summer 2016 is the only issue.

Berto is Floyd's homie. Maidana earned $1.5m base purse for the first Floyd fight. Ortiz, Guerrero etc earned around $3m. Khan would get around the same plus some UK money - Floyd would probably take a significant cut from that doe. Khan himself has admitted the Brook fight would earn him more money. I don't know what you're arguing here khan himself said he had one of the best chins in boxing. he's not an airtight source for information:lol1: according to what i'm looking at for UK pop press sources, manny and floyd did 700K in uk PPV, which is pretty substantial considering that froch and groves did 900 in the rematch, and that's considered one of the biggest british fights ever. that says a lot about the drawing power of floyd mayweather in the UK and on ppv. it indicates that he'd be entitled to some of the UK ppv, but he's not entitled to all of it. that represents a very significant source of revenue in addition to a guarantee that would, without a doubt, be higher than berto's 4 million

Are negotiations even under way? Hearn mentioned a few months back that he agreed with Khan on the idea that Brook should fight 1 or 2 big names before a Khan fight is recognisable...in that time brook has fought no one of note. Not to mention, June is not viable for Khan, which is ok, there's still May, if there's a real negotiation, then the date can not be set in stone. Personally, I'd prefer Khan v Bradley next year and then Khan v Brook, in the mean time Brook can fight a better level of opponent. Negotiations are supposedly under way but haven't they been in those since Brook was still a Domestic fighter? It's not gonna happen, period.
