Look, I think Khan a very fighter with bags of heart, but his self awareness, or lack of it, has always been the worst flaw of all. He claims to make progress but still gets caught mid flurry by the left hook...... and blamed it on being off balance against Diaz (Really)? Prescott became irrelevant by sweeping the issue under the carpet... par for the course.

    Brook hasn't proved himself the better fighter, but neither had Garcia at the time he faced Khan. That's the point. Brook may not have the resume, but I think he has enough to time and hurt Khan badly. It's no dead cert and never can be with chin like Khan's.
    Prescott became irrelevant on his own by continuously losing. He was off-balance/squared up against Diaz, it was a flash KD.

    Kendall Holt and a past it Morales are better than anyone on Brook's resume.

    I've never said it was a dead cert either way, that's pretty much what I'm arguing against. It's the Brook fans who somehow think this is a slam dunk even though Brook has done *** all at world level. Everyone now thinks that anyone who can punch harder than Malignaggi KO's Khan and it's pretty ******.

      Prescott didn't help himself but I don't think Khan's team at the time had any intention of going back there. Building him back up against people less likely to hurt him (And old Barrera, ***an etc) and basically acting like it never happened was the course they were set on. I'll give you Holt but Morales was far too long in the tooth even if the talent was still there the first time.

      You might be arguing against Brook fans predicting a blowout, but I think that's in response to the sentiment of the thread. A Khan fan predicting a blowout for Khan when he's never even faced a welterweight. We don't know how his power transfers or what his resistance will be like to the average puncher at 147lbs. You aren't trying to reason the TS out who is pretty OTT as well.

            that's unfair.... cos what ur basically saying is.... kell's not got enough to box with khan.... which is completely false....

            cos if maidana can stay with khan over 12rounds.... kell can do it....

            if danny garcia can time khan, kell can do it....

                Khan's jab alone breaks Brooks nose in the 1st round

                Then he gasses out in the 3rd and Khan beats him up.

                  Why? Garcia and Maidana have been operating at world level for years. You act like they are beneath Brook who has been operating at Euro/Fringe level.

                    I don't think as much of Khan as you do. His close get of the canvas win over mediocre Diaz tells me Khan is not anywhere near as good as he used to be when he beat Maidana and Judah.I think Alexander will knock him out and Brook would do the same.They are both much bigger, better and harder punching fighters than Diaz. If Khan beats Alexander then he might beat Brock as well but I think Alexander will beat Khan.

                      I agree with this really.

                      Ultimately, these boxers are only as good as their last fight.

                      I wouldn't feel comfortable laying money down on Khan he's not looked particularly good for 4 fights now.
