Brook better hope that the version of Khan that beat the Legendary Billy Dib does not turn up. That version of Khan beats anyone, even Canelo. Possibly even Tyson Fury. Nash out.
Brook has some knockouts over his stay busy fights while khan's only wins in stay busy fights for the last 8 years are all against hand selected guys who have no punch. If Khan beats brook it would be the first time Khan beat someone of his punching power since all the way back to the maidana fight and khan STILL got wobbled in that one.
Khan's career progression has been - rack up some wins against guys with no power, make big money fight and get KTFO, rack up some more wins agaisnt soft punchers, repeat.
Difference between Brook’s try at MW and Khan’s try at MW was that Khan was flatten hard by Canelo, while When Brook was stopped, he had his arms up telling GGG to keep coming. His bravado was only stopped by his corner throwing in the towel.
While neither fighter could brag about their climb to MW, Brook can at least say his chin/legs technically stood its ground vs GGG. Unfortunately that fight ruined Brook’s career. While the Canelo loss for Khan was already the norm for Khan dating back to Prescott.

Nah Brook was always quite overated. He’s a very good fighter but he beat Shawn Porter before Porter improved his game he couldn’t beat him 3 years later he had already fallen so far. Khan is decent. He has skills I think he’ll put forth a good showing not sure if he wins but it should be a good fight
Go back and look at how big Canelo was for that one, and then come back and tell me if Brook isn’t living in a dream world if he thinks he’s putting Khan in a semi-coma with one punch.
Getting Khan to dance like he’s at a Shaggy concert via accumulative punches seems more reasonable, to me.
But really, I sniff a highly contested result requiring a mega rematch…
Atleast someone is speaking sense lol
Defo going to be a close points dec and a rematch.

So Porter too was overrated when he lost to Brook but improved his game and was no longer overrated?
Two, Brook vs Spence was a dead even fight until the eye gave in. But let me guess, Spence hadn’t improved his game yet hence the close fight.
If Brook had fought Crawford at that time, you probably would have said that Crawford hadn’t improved his game yet and that Brook was just overrated?

Hold on man, you overlooked something: Khan is no longer able to benefit from the first hand experience of Eddie Hills in boxing’s trenches.
It’s an especially profound loss for Khan relative to Brook, because I have it on good authority that of the two, he saw Amir as the heir apparent of the Hills combat dojo, thus imparting his wisdom near constantly.
