[PICK EM CREW]

Well it ain't a title fight, both dudes are well into the twilight of their careers and almost - but not quite - past relevence at the highest level, but nonetheless this remains a kinda intriguing fight... or at least it certainly does for many British fans who have watched the rivalry and genuine venom between the two grow for well over a decade. Probably of less interest to our transatlantic cousins but maybe not, anyways, tough, you're getting it regardless.

As a fight it's a really tough call to my mind. Certainly Amir has the skills and the speed but Kell has always been a canny boxer and absolutely has the timing to catch Khan if he starts getting too carried away with his own offense as he too often does. Neither of em really got any major wins in the last 5 years (more like 7 actually) so in a way both are living on past accomplishments but this is still a fight that'll be fought at a high level of skill. On top of which I fully expect the genuine animosity between the two to be a factor.

Anyways there it is. Little bit gutted I ain't gonna be going but this shat was sold out before I even got a look in and right now with work being slow and the bills going through the roof it'd be a luxury I can't really justify anyway.

Best of luck gents, reckon it's gonna be one with a lot of the Brits picking with their hearts in this transpennine rivalry... pair of fairly polarising fighters on these shores and I reckon most of us already know who we want to win..

Did you watch The Gloves Are Off? Brook didn't look good at all indeed. He was a nervous wreck.

It's a tough call man, like you I was leaning very heavily towards Kell before, but although I think I'm probably still picking him I got very little confidence now.

There's probably good value in the x5 anyway and god knows you need a bit of a boost after your start this year. Good luck man.

That's not what I got from it. Kell despises Khan and wants his soul!
