    Brook has sold out Arenas for a while now? He does about 3 times as much as Broner does ticket wise. I don't see a problem with it? He's just beaten a guy on the periphery of world level, the natural step now would be to fight a belt holder (Broner) or a guy at world level (Khan). What you are doing is just plain hating.

    Brook is ranked #4 by ring, #1 by IBF and ranked in the top 10 by WBO as well. The criminal thing would be for him to fight someone else who's not world level.

      Brook destroys Khan, Khan knows it that's why he refuses to fight him.

        Khan definitely doesn't deserve a shot at Mayweather but on the other hand Brook doesn't deserve a shot at Khan.
        Brook definitely deserves his chance in my opinion, I think he would have done a better job than Kahn with Molina and Diaz and tbh I think Kahn from a few years back would have 1 upped that but he's pretty shot. I think he realises and that's why he avoided Alexander, I understand that he's trying to cash out with Mayweather and I don't think any of us could say we wouldn't do the same in his position but he really doesn't deserve the fight.

          Why do you say that?

          Froch-Groves sold 18,000 tickets in 11 minutes.

          Khan doesn't really think like that. You could knock Khan out and he'd still think he'd beat you.

            I think khan and brook are fighting on about the same level now, with a slight edge to brook.
            Julio Diaz would probably be the best name on Brook's resume in all honesty. Eddie Hearn even tried to get that fight after he'd fought Khan.

                This.Brook has fought nobody Senchenko nearly had him twerking even old ass Bererra beats anything on his resume,a lot of people will be suprised if/when they fight even Khan now schools him Brook looks slow as hell and will be overwhelmed by Khans speed and will get stopped.

                  Nah, what I'm doing is stating facts. Brook has sold out the Sheffield Arena a few times which is about 7k capacity, that is decent and I don't dispute he has a following. His record is a joke tho, best name on it is now Senchenko who is 36 and has a record full of nobodies (apart from a L to Malignaggi who literally battered him, and a W against a washed up Hatton). My problem with Brook is that he has fought absolutely nobody at 147lbs.

                  What does that have to do with anything? My point wasn't that Hearn can't promote, he can, and Froch is proof of this. It was that he continually mentions doing a huge outdoor show, but blatently never will. To be fair the weather in the UK doesnt lend itself well to outdoor shows (i.e Haye-Chisora), but just makes me laugh he always mentions it like he will.

                    Broner is too small and that fight will never happen anyway so what a load of pants even mentioning it. Brook does not deserve a fight with Khan, he has to earn his fights and so far he has Senchenko on his record. Thats it.....

                      You may well be able to ko khan now. But that's kicking a man whe hes down, because khan has beaten guys on Senchenkos level for a few good years now, and has had a blip recently with being ko'ed by Garcia etc.

                      So most people predict theyd ko khan, that's no big deal. When you predict what you are going to do to khan though, at least give him credit for having done pretty well and flown the flag for team GB recently but youd ko him.
