why not amir khan vs kell brook ?

[AllyboyJNR]

So your arguement is that he's #1 Contender?

Then why did you complain about Amir fighting Salita? Salita was #1 Contender.

FW just wants sell Kell brooks name, because outside his family and friends, nobody has heard of him.

Kells a domestic level fighter.

Quit embarrassing yourself

salita wasn't the number 1.... thats a lie marcus maidana was and khan chose to fight salita. My argument is that frank warren has offered a crazy amount of money to turn down so i do not see why he would turn it down and fight a dude over the hill (which you know is the plan for him anyway) zab judah was on twitter saying the fight with him and khan was a done deal.... zab judah ? c'mon he was gifted a decision against mattyse and looked horrible.

all i'm saying is the fight either at 147 or 140 would be an awesome draw over here in britain, kell stops amir all day

[Chunk..]

its not about who knows who, kell is a #1 contender therefore deserves a shot, infact amir was never regarded as a #1 contender when he fought kotelnik lol

we will see the khan camp knock back frank warrens deal without doubt lol

Brook is a #1 contender in a weight class that's above the division that Khan's champion at right now.


So stop bringing that up like it matters.

Salita was the mandatory. Maidana was the interim champion.

Salita was the mandatory. Maidana was the interim champion.

the interim champion means your the mandatory lol salita was top 5 at 140lbs, don't know why.

[Terrel]

Simply put, Khan is trying to make a big name for himself in the States, so why would he fight a guy no one in America knows?

Yes, it shouldnt matter "who knows him" but thats how the world runs right now. Brook has stated that he would drop to 140 but how do we know thats even in the offer FW put forward?

Khan will make alot more money and be facing better opposition than a fighter like Kell Brook. Why does he not push for a Maidana fight or Berto, who is in his own weight division?

I can see this fight happening in acouple of years bug not now. Khan has waaay bigger fish to fry at 140lbs. Kell certainly has bigger fish to fry in his own division. He should be concentrating on them.

Why have you not pushed for a Brook-Pacquiao bout, he is Pac's #1 contender isnt he?

[lfc19titles]

A lot of reasons, just to name a few

Brooks has the potential to become a world champ, why risk him against Khan when he can become a world champ and then britian can have a huge super fight say in 2012 or 2013?

Khan is not yet ready to move to 147, no point jumping up and down weights yet since both have plenty of time

[STEELHEAD]

this fight makes sense, amir could either go up to 147lbs or kell could easlily make the 140 limit for the WBA title, it would be a huge fight in britain and would generate alot of interest, imo kell beats him by late stoppage.

what are your opinions on it ?.... i don't wanna see another salita fight in britain lol

" why not amir khan vs kell brook ? "
too big of a step backwards. period!

[ChickenTikka]

kell is the number 1 contender for mannys 147lbs title so he's earned the right to fight any of the champs, he said himself he'd make the 140 limit as hes only around 5'8/9 in height, its fights like this that give guys like kell a name oversea's. Goldenboy are gonna choose someone over the hill for amir its a given, ortiz vs khan makes sense but then again they are probs being built up for a big showdown lol

So was Salita to Khan. Khan has the final say who he fights that's the bottom line
