I also believe that Brook would KO khan, but Brook needs to get a decent name on his resume, if he can get Alexander and beat him then the Khan fight would be a lot more interesting, not only that but he can also get a Mayweather fight in the future.
...I am really not so sure Khan is the proverbial lamb-to-the-slaughter Brook seems to believe he his and (without going too cliche crazy) Amir might be the wolf in sheep's clothing Brook might be well-advised to avoid.
Khan remains frighteningly quick, a nasty, hard and concussive puncher, he's still young and he's operated in a league that's a stratosphere about Kell's recent fight partners.
Amir is not Carson Jones or Matty Hatton. His punches are faster, way heavier and he's an explosive, seasoned world-class operator.
Fair enough for Brook to call Amir out after a good night at the office; but if he thinks it is one good punch and Amir obilingly kisses the canvas then I think Kell could be in for a very rude awakening.
Khan has every chance of landing first with his speed and I can see him boxing smart and setting some traps if he faces Brook.
Brook has also acquired the bad habit of switching off during fights and that's super-dangerous against Amir.

I agree with all this.
It would be a fun explosive fight and you would have to back Khan to get off first and often. Who knows how Brook would deal with that really?
However, you're only ever as good as your last fight and Khan looked dead fragile against a career lightweight. That's why it is hard for most people, myself included, to be too confident in a Khan win.
I dont understand why Brook's team have now started mentioning Khan(again) and Broner, i thought the whole point of fighting senchenko was to retain the the IBF mandatory position and fight Alexander next.
I think Brook would lose to alexander due to his speed and defences.
The broner or khan fight is definitely more winnable for Brook.
ALso remember Hatton saying that Brook was a harder puncher than Canelo after their fight. the amount Rees and Malignaggi landed on Broner i think Brook would quite possibly KO him.
He makes opponents look like concussive punchers, that's about it.
lol...........
His last two fights I'd agree with you. But I don't know if that is because he is not committing to his punches anymore because he's worried about getting chinned. Some of those punches against Molina I think I could have taken, lol.

It has to be the flurries.
When he used to use the jab, and then step in with a 1-2 he had some pop. However, Freddie Roach turned him into a poor man's Pacquiao. All he does now is throw quick flurries. Unlike Manny though, Khan throws flurries of arm punches with his feet all over the place, you can't generate power when you are never set.
Im not a fan of either of them, especially kell brook who is 28 years old and hasn't got a name on his record worth mentioning, but he knows khan is damaged goods now, and he's ripe for the taking, and I think he would stop khan.
