AMIR KHAN needs to restart his career in Britain and the perfect fight for him is against Bradley Skeete. The former light-welterweight world champion is in danger of becoming boxing's forgotten man. Khan, 30, has not fought since he was knocked out by Saul Alvarez in May 2016 and, despite being a top fighter, his value is dwindling. Click Here To Read More]
They would both get destroyed at 154 with those massive 154'ers.
Khan no question gets wrecked at 154. Brook i think has the skills and chin to be competitive but I’m not sure about the bones. Never thought i would say that about a boxer lol.
Ole glass jaw will be looking for some weight drained guy maybe Egginton but then maybe not Sam's got a bit of a dig ...oh well.......can't wait to hear his opponent ....the ONLY guy out there who's not afraid of glass jaw !
Problem is that it won't be a tune up fight. He'll most likely outbox Skeete for an impressive win and then spend another year on twitter whining about his wife.
Frank Warren... unequivocally talks more bollocks than Hearn. The only reason people don't pick up in it is because Warrens stable is absolute dog**** and/or aren't promoted at all.
You don't know what you're talking about.
First of all, Skeete-Khan makes perfect sense for both guys. For Khan its a Good fight for him to shake off some ring rust after 18 months out plus possibly become the mandatory for the WBO title, which could either be Horn or even Manny Pac.
And for Skeete, its a Great name for him to build up his profile.
As for Warren's stable, sure at the moment he doesn't have the name fighter's Hearn does but what he does have is the best collection of the UK's Best Young Prospects especially in guys in Triple DDD and Yarde so 3 years from now he'll have the better stable.
Khan needs a tune up, it would be stupid to take a dangerous fight after a long lay off, a brutal loss and a hand operation
and he should fight in the UK, so maybe fighting someone from the UK would be ideal
Bradley Skeet is a decent tune up fight and someone who will get bums on seats
Winning this fight puts him near the top of the WBO rankings. Which could line him up with a shot at Horn next year. Beat Horn and he has a title and talks resume for Pac/Khan in 2018 or Khan/Crawford is possible.
Why not? the world titles for 147 are spoken for in 2018 : Crawford, Spence, Keith, Pac, Horn are all going to have fights scheduled so Amir 'King' Khan needs to start his euro tour and tax these bums for a couple tuneups in the meantime
-- I just hope Kell Brookz doesn't quit again and accept that hes the 'B' side in this.
Khan's chin could hold up against Skeete.
I think Brook and Khan just need to get it done. I don't see either being a champion at 154 pounds so there is no point even pursuing that.
As his been mentioned on here, that class is full of weight-bullies. The will both get flattened at this stage in their careers.

Khan would eat Skeete alive. Perfect style match for him to look good
This is the best fight for Khan, Skeete cannot punch his way out of a paperbag. He wont be knocked out again, which is a good thing.
