Invictas

Naseem arrived 8 weeks prior to the Barrera fight and chilled at De La Hoyas ranch in California.

When were some times when a trainer drastically improved a fighter, fixing holes in their games? Manny Steward with Lennox Lewis and Waladimir Klitschko.

Khan is doing anything he can to get out of the fight. He knows that Kell will have to move up soon due to weight issues so then the fight definitely won't happen. Hearn called him out on his bullsh*t earlier and said 60/40 and Khans team have declined the fight. He's scared to have his career ended infront of a full stadium of people who hate him after being beaten by a long time rival after he talked so much sh*t. Can you imagine how embarrassing that would be for him? He'd need to be on suicide watch for ever. As long as Garcia knocks him out and makes him do the funny dance he does I'll be happy with that. So if Khan loses its gonna be life long humiliation? Khan has named his price for suffering this humiliation Eddie Hearns need to Pay up. Hearns said the fight generates £30 Million in that case £10 Million for Khan and £7 Million Brook is reasonable this slime ball Eddie Hearn is trying to hustle both fighters.

You sure that was Brook and not some computer voiceover? That sort of whining is more Khan than it is Brook. No he has been doing that sort of whining for the last 8 years, it just the press have never given it much coverage. To be fair he has a useless promoter who has not done much for his career. The Guys who turned professional in the same year as him (2004), Brandon Rios, Devon Alexander, Timothy Bradley, Andre Berto are all Multi-Millionaires. Guys who turned Professional several years after him, like Thurman and Danny Garcia are Multi Millionaires. Kell is still waiting for his Train to Leave the Station, whilst his contemporaries are coming towards the end of their journey.

What did he say? Allegedly called him a Punk Ass Coward, Fraud Mayweather etc. Although that remains unconfirmed need to see a proper video of that... I am told Floyd seemed quite Surprised not used to people talking to him like that in recent years...! According to Stephen Espinosa from showtime on twitter they were going back and forth the entire 5th round.

Both fighters need each other to make anywhere near that kind of money, they can't make that kind of money without each other. 60/40 is fair. I think Eddie Hearns character is trying to pull a Don King Hustle here, he wants to pay both Boxers peanuts and keep the bulk of the money himself. I hope Kell Brook signs with a big name promoter Eddie Hearns has messed him around long enough. According to Hearns own figures the fight is worth £30,Million. Eddie is now trying to Back Track and pay Khan £5 Million and Brook £2.5 million whilst paying himself £22.5 Million. Eddie Hearns is a Slime Ball.

For a tune up Khan will probably fight Gabriel Bracero or Miguel Vazquez.

He did that already but Algieiri almost KHTFO. I get you like Khan but at this point he spends more time prostituting himself than fighting. Khan is a Twitter Hooker now. Massive fan of Kell Brook its time he left Hearns and signed with a promoter, who can deliver the big fights. Kell Brook needs to show some self-respect and stop begging Khan for a pay day. Man have some dignty your supposed to be the champion. Kell should be a Multi-weight champion by now, and massive superstar. Eddie Hearns is acting like a pimp relentlessly trying to Prostitute Kell,... its time Kell dumped this Slime Ball...Better of setting up his own Promotional company.

Khan has always been extremely disrespectful of other boxers. He has called Mayweather a coward many times and said Mayweather was scared to fight him. He also said Pacquiao was afraid to fight him. Why should these superstars reward Khan with a big money fight for calling them cowards? Khan has always trashed Brook unmercifully. Brook practically begged Khan to fight him for many years. Khan responds to Brook's challenge with insults. He tells Brook that he is not remotely worthy to fight him. The Brook fight is a big payday for Khan and a chance to win a world title. If Khan hates Brook so much why the hell doesn't he just fight him????? It would give Khan the chance to beat the hell out of his hated rival and get very well paid and win a world title for doing so. If Brook retires at the end of the year he retires as a wealthy, undefeated world champion. That's not such a bad thing. When he fought Porter he got paid 250K Eddie Hearns said that was the highest purse of Brooks career and a life changing amount. And for his 2 subsequent defence he got paid around 200K for each fight. He has hardly earned enough to retire. Khans not gonna give him the pay day, so its time to move on and sign with a promoter who can deliver the Big Fights. Otherwise he is gonna end up as the new Junior Witter. Ricky Hatton refused to give him a payday and he is still fighting into his 40's.

Lol..Brilliant line from Kell, that description fits Khan perfectly. On the other hand Brook keeps complaining Khans jet set lifestyle, instead of being Jealous he needs to make a move and take the welterweight division by storm, the Money will come and he can lead a Jet set lifestyle himself.

And not one person has asked for a source fro the OP. They just accept "Leaked news" as gospel truth. So I'll ask, OP, where's your source? Original poster never has a source, over the last few months he stated that Khan vs Pacquaio was signed and sealed and Khans Lawyer was flying out to Las Vegas to finalise the Loose ends with Bob Arum. He also stated that Khan Vs Brook was also virtually signed and sealed and it would be a two fight deal if Khan loses he will get an automatic re-match. But to be fair his above prediction sounds the most plausible out of all his predictions.

He wants the big fights, I see no problem. Eddie isn't delivering the fights he wants and he's frustrated by it, that's a good thing. Typical of Khan fans to post a misleading title to suit their agenda though. Agreed! Eddie Hearn seems not capable, hopefully Brook signs a similar deal with Haymon that Degales has done.

He also took home all of the UK money, so he doubled it according to Hearn. So how do you know how much he earned? Guessing and talking out of your arse? Or do you have something to back it up? I doubt he doubled anything if anyone is talking out of their arse its Eddie Hearns completely stalled Kell Brooks career. The fact Kell had tears in his eyes in that interview and his desperation in that interview and the press conference speaks for itself. Kell gave an interview last year he stated that although he has managed to purchase a house in an upscale neighbourhood he has not earned the Million dollar paydays like he was expecting and he was frustrated at the slow pace his career has moved. Kell should after nearly 12 years be a Multi-millionaire and a Multi Weight Champion and a genuine pound for pound superstar his career has not done justice to his talent. Rather Eddie Hearn has not given him the promotional backing Kell deserves. I think Kell Brook is good enough to be the first British fighter win titles in 4 Weight divisions. I think he is good enough right now to jump up in weight and beat Chris Eubank Jnr.

He wanted the Mayweather fight to get that Mayweather fight money and quit the sport years ago, but Chino destroyed those plans and too his retirement money and retired himself :lol1: Then he wanted the Pacman money because Mayweather retired, but got shafted for Bradley. And after ducking the Brook fight for years he now wants it, but only if he can get his retirement funds that he lost in the potential Pacman/Mayweather fights. Has it not become obvious yet? He wants to get the big payday and get out of boxing. His heart isn't in boxing anymore. He has already earned enough to retire. I am pretty certain he is ranked higher Then Carl Froch on the Sunday times rich List. So if Froch has earned enough to retire so has Khan.

It's a no risk fight like the Algeri fight. Danny's 140 power has gone at 147. Khan wins the fight easy. Do you think Khan would of taken it if it was a risk? He'd have gone the WBO route and face light punching Bradley if he wanted a belt but he knew that's the bigger risk fight. Danny nearly decapitated him, the first time...! Of course its a risky fight.

Talking about Khan, i read this article by Johnny Nelson the other day. I am a Khan fan but i was thinking along similar lines to Nelson in regards to what he does next being an really important decision. After all the talk by Brook and Khan, their fight is like Groves Vs Froch were the loser is going to have a bitter pill to swallow. As for Garcia, i'm not sure it's a fight i want to see again. Khan's big problem is punchers..will a rematch be any different. I'm not writing Khan out of a fight, i never would really, but i'd prefer to see a what may turn out to be a more competitive fight. .................................... Amir Khan won't fancy fighting Kell Brook or Danny Garcia, says Johnny Nelson Amir Khan is mandatory challenger to WBC champion Danny Garcia, while a blockbuster fight looms with IBF king Kell Brook. But Johnny Nelson thinks Khan is stuck in an unenviable position... It seems like Khan's in a brilliant position that most fighters want to be in - but privately, he's stuck between a rock and a hard place. He could fight Brook or fight Garcia, a guy who has knocked him out and knows how to do it. On paper, it's a great position but in reality, is it? Khan is now in a situation where he fights Brook - who he's been saying is an easy fight - or he goes and fights Garcia, which is a risk. I don't think Khan wants to fight Garcia again. Had Garcia lost to Robert Guerrero, then Khan would have said 'let's do this'. Danny would do it, I don't doubt for one second that Danny would do it, but Khan's handlers believe, even if he doesn't, that Garcia is his bogeyman. Khan lost to Breidis Prescott because of a mistake. He messed up, and could have fought him again to right the wrongs but he chose not to - some fighters believe that you can have a bogeyman that has got your number. Garcia, as far as Khan is concerned, is his bogeyman. I'd be surprised if that fight takes place. Fighting Brook would be a bigger payday than fighting Garcia, which would be a quarter of the money. I'd be surprised if Khan risks losing again to his bogeyman. The biggest fight out there is with Brook, it's for a title and gives him a chance to unify the titles. You might be Mr Big but you've got to fight somebody and have that competition. Can Khan afford to lose a fight against Brook with massive bragging rights? He isn't in a great position. If Khan had boxed Mayweather or Pacquiao and lost, he could still have come back and boxed Brook. If he boxes Garcia and loses, he could come back and box Brook but it wouldn't be as attractive. If Brook is smart, he could say 'let me fight Garcia or Keith Thurman'. That would make Khan look silly. Khan is an amazing fighter, but people will start forgetting that because of his lack of fighting over the past two years. He's been waiting for Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, and it's not his fault that those fights didn't happen. Now he says he wants the biggest fight - well, the biggest fights are for the titles. Khan, unless he can find another avenue, will be out in the cold. So you didnt find the first fight exciting? The first fight was Wall to Wall excitement second time probably will be also. Kell Brook destroys Khan in one round. Thats why he is unwilling to fight anyone with a pulse until he gets khan. Johnny Nelson is friends with Kell Brook known him since he was a kid trained in the same gym as him with the Ingles. So he is not exactly neutral.

Problem is he may have to face a puncher for the first time in over a decade Thats a risk Kell should be willing to take, Technically he is the best fighter in division. If he wants big money he is gonna have to play in the Big Leagues. He is the Champion needs to show some dignity and self-respect and act like one. The desperation in that Video and tears in his eyes was embarrassing.

Sergio Mora seemed to be competing for the award of worst commentator ever.

Kell needs to stop fighting those bums and accept the fight with whatever split Khan offers him. Agreed its time to put up or shut up...This Hearns Character said this fight financially would be bigger the Froch vs Groves easily generating over £30 Million. Looks like Eddie Hearns wants to Keep the bulk of the money for himself.

He had tears in his eyes in that interview seems really depressed...The sooner he signs with a top promoter the better.

Thats Impressive..Well done kid.

I still think he's afraid to lose to Kell Brook though. I don't think he's afraid to fight him or anybody obviously. Just losing to Kell Brook on such a huge scale fight in the UK would be extremely damaging to his reputation. Losing to Canelo is no big deal. Same reason he wanted Manny and Floyd. He wants the money but he also wants the factor of losing not really being a big deal due to who he's fighting. He would make a lot more money fighting Brook than Canelo. They reckon Khan would have earned more than Froch in the Groves rematch, somewhere around £13m. Khan knows that Brook fight is there to cash out on even more no matter what happens with Canelo. Smart business move. He is a guy who will fight anyone but a guy who is afraid incase he loses to Brook. Im sure he believes he can beat Brook, but the "what if" factor of losing is too big a risk right now when he can make big money elsewhere i.e Canelo, with not much to lose. Nobody could convince me otherwise. The person who originally made this claim was none other then Eddie Hearn a proven lying slime ball. £13 Million who claimed that? Yeah Khan is so scared of Losing to Brook that he is fighting Canelo.

Don't you think he would have selected crawford in that case? Crawford beats manny and he's the new superstar. If bradley wins well nothing happens So why he choose Bradley then? who knows what kind of Hustle Uncle Bob was trying to pull his been hustling for 50 years. Probably wanting to keep the fight in house, Pacquaio apparently has a $20 Million gurantee in his contract, realised Crawford was not going to sell the Pay Per Views...... It seems to me Because Bradley looked good under Teddy Atlas he was hoping the war of words between Atlas and Roach would help promote the fight except Teddy is not playing. Michael Koncz seemed to want Broner finacially that would have been very lucrative..Uncle Bob shut that down quick time, he is not doing business with Haymon fighters.

until the rape allegations....he became a circus show after the hiatus in the mid 90s Here in the U.K when Tyson came to fight Julius Francis he got Mobbed were ever he went, despite the media efforts to villify him, we had radio shows and even TV news debates and discussions from the BBC on wards about Tyson, It was even discussed in British parliament as to why Tyson had developed a cult following and was still popular despite everything......That was one hell of a Circus never seen anything like it Hundreds of reporters and paparrazi camped outside the historic Grosvenor hotel following Tyson where ever he went. The guy was a lead story in all the media News outlets print, radio, TV: For Weeks. Floyd despite his delusions of grandeur does not even come close.

He still never got knocked out by bums like Prescott though. Lost his fight date? he retired. If he was still around, he would have any date he wanted, lets be real. When it comes to UK dinner events Mike Tyson is still king. Floyd will never reach that level of popularity.

Joshua is being explicitly backed by Sky Sports/Matchroom Sport, with most believing that Joshua may actually be the next great heavyweight fighter, let alone British fighter; they've brought Joshua along as best as one could expect, have started to dabble with him being a PPV fighter, and the early returns are increasingly promising. The only entity that's ever backed Khan in anything like that is Frank Warren and his BoxNation platform; Sky Sport's interest in Amir Khan, to be blunt, only go as far as staging a massive domestic fight with domestic rival Kell Brook, a fighter that Sky Sports and Matchroom Sport have invested in building up. For all the talk of Joshua already being a massive PPV success, context is key; 400k PPV buys, even at the most favorable of terms, still only brought in ~$4m on the take, a figure subsidized by a massive live gate. Is BoxNation really going to shell out the massive bucks for a fight that they'll be getting at 3 in the morning, without the benefit of a live gate, for a fighter whose UK popularity, to me, is in doubt for the simple reason of his fans having not seen him in years? I doubt it. The amount of coverage already given by Sky sports shows their interest, this fight will be PPV on Sky whether you like it or not.

I don't think I've ever heard sanyone say nelo hits particularly hard. He couldn't ko SSM so that speaks volumes. Ssm has also said nelo & Floyd hit about the same hard im sure I didn't imagine that. I know nelo has the physique and looks the part and hydrates to a large size but he don't hit hard. Well on his Twitter account Sugar Shane Mosley said Canelo hits very hard and that Khan is gonna get his ass beat and get knocked out in the first round.

Yeah Sky generally don't, sometimes it comes out in the media, but I don't understand some people. Whether you like a fighter or not, just call a spade a spade. This is a big fight which is caught everyone off guard and it will for sure be on ppv in the UK, there is no doubt about it. I have a lot of friends who are casual boxing fans and I know this will grab them because it captures the imagination and there is a big unknown to it, and I know some of my friends will watch because they think they will be guaranteed a KO (of Khan). Exactly a lot of people will gladly pay hoping to see Khan get knocked out...Others will pay because its a great against the odds underdog story. Surprising the amount of casuals I heard mentioning this fight...Once the fight gets closer The British Media will be going full throttle hyping it. The fight might not be good for Khans long term health, but it will be good for Boxing.

Here are a couple of interesting news clips thousands turning up at Heathrow airport in London for the arrival of Tyson... https://youtu.be/CC8WJmJFbhc?t=8 Tyson getting mobbed in an innercity area of London... https://youtu.be/OMl5WT-m3PE

He knows all about the first part..... he's still working on the second part. If he's still working on the second part his not too done badly, Olympic medallist at 17, championship fights at 140lb's, fame and celebrity, 30 Million already in the Bank, plenty more Millions on the way. All before the age of 30. And an army of jealous losers on the internet who have accomplished Zilch in their lives.
