Comments Thread For: Khan: Brook is a Step Down For Me, But I Had To Give This To The British Fans!

[Kris Silver]

Although its at 149 which favours Khan, I'm rooting for Brook and slightly lean towards him. He isn't a huge hitter but could KO Khan.

Both of them are pretty annoying. Most fight press conferences which let the fighters just shout over each-other, I think promoters think great. But a lot must actually tune-out, it's annoying AF after a minutes watching.

Con is an absolute tool .I can not wait for this idiots name to go away. Just the sight of this prat is enough. Unfortunately he's well advised (like don't fight Brook and don't take a rematch with Prescott etc) but judging from the seemly light hook/ jab that finished Brook last time it looks like he's picked his time knowing Kell has gone. It's a toss up who's more shot.

Absolutely spot on. Hope Kell can train hard and recapture the old form to finish this fool but like you say khan is advised extremely well the advisors deserve medals for making this idiot so many millions

Khan has been trolling Brook successfully since Brook reached world level winning IBF world title at 147.

Brook was too obsessed to get Khan`s respect for some reason. Brook spent career chasing Khan, Khan spent career chasing Mayweather and Pacquiao.

A step down from Billy Dib, who won a vacant featherweight title in 2011 and never actually beat anyone else who ever won a title in the ring in 55 fights?

Dib was 47-0-0-2 against non-titlists and 0-6 against world titlists.

It certainly is a step down for Khan. A step down for the boxer he perceives himself to be in his own mind, not the actual reality.

I'm rooting for and think Kell knocks Khan out.

From the Crawford fight, I think you can tell that Brook is still supremely talented. Sharp, fast, powerful and technical, he's still got everything to give anyone nightmares, if it weren't for the fact he now has what I'd consider the definition of a glass chin and, an actual glass face.

Khan hasn't beat anyone as good as Porter, he's just a money grabber. There's no way in hell he'd have gone into that fight with Canelo thinking he had a chance, he just wants the money.

Brook still trains and comes in looking like he's fighting for legacy. Had he not made poor decisions to bounce between GGG and Spence, I think he'd still be a pretty strong force at WW, maybe LMW.

Maidana fight was an exception. Still not quite sure how he survived it.

He got wobbled, dropped and brutally stopped at every weight class he’s fought at.

135, 140, 147 and 160(155)

true man. maybe that fight sapped his durability. Peterson I always felt that fight was a bit of a jobbing and he was unfortunate on the cards and then yeah Garcia got the big shot which changed the fight completely. Always felt he could win a rematch with a corrected defence but he never went after it.

And still he made a huge money fighting. Khan is master of survival in boxing world.

one of the most delusional boxers of this era.

Yes, brook is a step down from nelo and bud. Khan is doing it for fans as we know khan can always get biggest names. I'm sure Spence would fight khan in a heartbeat. Not sure who I want to win but khan did get silver medal so maybe khan is my man
