    A shot Kell Brook is still a live dog against Benn.

      True , Benn and Hearn have a win over a 37 year old and call out three shot fighters , so Hearn obviously thinks the same!

        Let’s see how far the Khan money stretches. I think Brook vs Benn happens at some point regardless of who wins Feb 19th.

          I think if they get the opportunity they’ll take the Jake Paul style route of slightly sideshowish fights against names who can sell, but aren’t very dangerous. The moment Benn steps to world level he’s gonna get ****ed up.

            Instead of Broner, I wish Matchroom would pursue Boots Ennis or Virgil Ortiz. I think both fighters would gladly go to the UK to fight Benn.

              Brook Vs. Benn would be a great test for Connor.

                Is the fight at 149lb and Is there a hydration limit on fight night?

                  I'm going to say this first, against popular opinion..... I think Khan will eat brook up at this stage. And get the win. No one is saying that. I'm the first one to say it on this thread. And I will screenshot this. But Khan beats brook in this matchup. We'll worry about who/what is next, later.

                  Brook ALWAYS looks in shape and ready to fight. And was an amazing fighter at his peak. But dude he got I'd up by a jab. A JAB! I think he's always going to be in shape. He's always going to look the part. But Khan is actually "good" still. Chinny as hell, but good. Crawford wasn't destroying him. He was just beating him.

                  In the end, Khan still has elite talent. He can't beat the best. And he can't take a punch. But I really doubt Brook can bring anything to the table that is eye catching. And having said that, Khan may toy with him and get a KO that we haven't seen from him in like 10 years Haha.

                  I'm a fan of neither. From a career stand point, Brook is the better REAL fighter. Khan is the better showman, money maker. But on one given night with two over the hill, brittle fighters....... I take Khan

                    Him and Khan are both shot and should both retire after this
