The Great Nash has always respected Mr. Khan. He destroyed prime Barrera. The only man in history to put Barrera's lights out with a KO win. Also KO'd prime Judah. Had prime Maidana down for 9 inside 1 round, then outclassed him for 11 of the 12 rounds, outside of the round he got slightly clipped. Even Canelo, Khan schooled him, winning every round and it was only a punch from the Gods that Canelo pulled off the win of his career. Canelo later visited Nash in a dream and said that beating Khan validated him as a human being.
Then we have Brook, beat Porter when Porter was top 10 P4P. Lost to the greatest MW ever in Golovkin, and his other losses weren't really losses, only injuries, Spence and Crawford. Nash called them both draws, just like Khan and Crawford was a draw as well. Nash will never forget Brook's two wins over future HOF Carson Jones.
The winner of this fight gets Conor Benn, then probably Boots. Big times ahead. This is not the end for Khan or Brook. It's just the beginning. Each man has another 5 years of prime to go. Let's enjoy them. We all still want Mayweather vs Khan as well, let's not forget that. Nash out.
Khan basically admitted that Brook is damaged goods now and he's just swooping in to finish him off.
But Brook has the stronger spirit, will to win. . . and that's gonna make all the difference.
Do you think? I've been more a Brook fan than Khan, although i liked both, but I think Khan has the bigger heart.
The only time I think you could question his will would be the Crawford fight but before then he's always shown massive heart. Its his chin that lets him down.

That's what's making this interesting for me. Khan thinks he's got Brook at the right time, which he has but he's also a shot fighter himself. I'm leaning towards Khan at the moment but can see Brook potentially pulling off one final performance in a fight he desperately wants to win.
A lot of former Khan haters on Twitter have confessed they've now become Khan fans after watching this Gloves Are Off. How many converts we got on Boxing Scene?
I must admit, I am looking forward. They are both washed up, but man they hate each other so much...I can see Benn calling out the winner of this, lol.

Man, I wonder what the over/under is for this fight. I can’t imagine this going to the cards. Fuck it, I’m hyped for this. I know I shouldn’t be but I can’t help it. Too much history between these two and it should be damn near a guaranteed ko one way or the other.
