Khan

I disagree. Khan seems to start strong with his blazing hand speed that bamboozles his opponents.

Once they get used to it they can start timing him and walking him back. He can’t fight inside.

I see a Khan stoppage early or a Brook stoppage late.

Khan's inside fighting ability is limited. Real close quarters inside fighting.

But from a distance, mid-range the man can do damage.

If Brook's game plan is to take it on the inside, he is getting hit 'On the way in'. If he can take Khan's power? No problem. Go for it.

At the end of the day, I don't think anyone here knows for sure how it is going to go.

That first round is going to tell the viewers a lot.

I think this fight comes down to one thing - has Brook’s punch resistance gone? If it hasn’t, he’ll time Khan and wreck him at some point. If it has, Khan could stop him inside the first 4-6 rounds when he has the advantage of speed.

i agree, khan thinks his ring IQ is actually better then the reality of what it is, its not bad to be fair but not great about average i'd say

lets be honest as long as brooks chin holds up then i dont think khans ever been that big of a puncher,
its just that ko by crawford and the main punch being a jab which caught him out which is raising legit questions about brooks chin

I want Kell to win, but he probably has to do it in the early rounds. He does fade in fights as the rounds go on. But who knows honestly, both fighters are past it

Side note, Brook in his prime was one of the best 4 round fighters I've seen since Zab Judah lol

[Idunnoshet]

I went with Khan winning by late stoppage.
I think both fighters age / wear and tear will show in the fight.
IMO Khan's the fresher fighter and has as much pop as Brook.

i expected brook to ko like i posted earlier but really didnt expect him to get him rocking as early as round 1

think the nerves got to khan more then brook

brook calm cool and collected lol

Yes Brook was too strong tonight, clearly made the weight well 'And had a awesome training camp'.

Technically he was calm, and was just stalking Khan 'Fighting a very economical fight'.

Khan well, his power was ineffective and as the fight went on? He was decreasing, due to fighting in a frantic manner.

The right fighter won, Kell Brook & Dominic Ingle have done well. I was concerned of how Brook would of reacted to a loss, so I am quite content.

Too bad for Amir Khan, he would of fought on until the end 'But there was really no need to let the fight get to that point'.

yea i dont even think one shot even made brook think twice

walked him down, like andrew ward said he showed him no respect....basically took it too him and took the fight out of him

[elfag]

both these guys should retire.

yeah brook beat khan's ass but he isnt beating anyone good out there and each fight is a risk with his skull injuries
