[Hatesrats]

Amir wins almost every RD until he is unconscious. Brook by KO at some point.

5 years too late! Yaaaawn!

This won't even do big business here in the UK. 10 years too late. What a cash grab. Both shot to hell and a pointless fight.

Brook brutally knocks out China chinned Khan, circa. Rd 6! You heard it here first!

[JakeTheBoxer]

Retirement fight for both, I think.

They hate each other so much and they marinated this fight so long that both of them are completely shot at this point.

[Iron Fister]

Anyone hating on this fight can fack off!

The pure hate between these two is epic. Can't wait for the promotion and fight.

I don't care if they fought in their 50s.

Long past it's sell-by date. I wouldn't watch it even it wasn't a PPV anymore. Two shot fighters looking for a final payday which I'm they'll find enough casuals to fund.

Another epic brit bum fight. Saunders/Eubank needs to be on the undercard.

I was never a fan of Khan. Terrible punch resistance. He got hurt in nearly all of his bouts. Only thing that was good about him was his speed, but he was easy to time and he got countered a lot in the exchanges. Terrible in ring intelligence. He would **** when he should have boxed and left himself so open defensively.

Honestly, he was never really as good as he would want you to believe. I think he was overrated, even when he was in his prime.

I think a big problem for Khan is/was his ego. He clearly had talent and is blessed with natural speed, but he seemed determined to show that he could fight rough and take punishment. Amir just does not seem able to accept he has a weak chin and can't take a big punch.

Like you say, he kept getting involved in rucks when staying on the outside and peppering his opponent was the best option. For me that was partially bad management, but definitely also his ego getting the better of him.
