    This is the most lucrative offer khan has going... If he's so sure that he deserves the Mayweather fight and that he's levels above Brook, would it not be logical of him to go for the most lucrative option before September?
    Who give a **** about most lucrative

    Kell Brook has faced more bums than Graham Norton

    I'm not against Brook vs Khan fight, i just dont think its beneficial to Khan as far as trying to get the Floyd fight in this moment of time

    Brook is fighting some bum next (same old story) and then he has a 3rd chance at fighting for a belt, hopefully he doesnt duck,and if he wins he then has pulling power and positioning to demand a fight with Khan, and something huge to offer.

    Kell really needs to get a move on,the Special 1 as he call himself, has yet to prove his worth, and pinning his entire career on calling out Khan

    Jnr Whitter spent his entire career calling out Hatton, Kell is reminding me of him. Although Whitter had a better resume than Brook thats for sure

      Khan should do this fight. Either way if he really wants a big fight he needs to get a good win. This would be a start. Then he should try and avenge his loss to Garcia.

        So he didn't take the Alexander fight for the 147 IBF title. Now it looks like he will turn down Brook for $5million. He wants Floyd but is doing nothing to advance his career in the meantime, his career has seriously become a joke in the last 2 years.

              If the offer is made with no strings attached Khan should take it. I don't see that happenig do you? I doubt his marquee fighter froch has made anywhere near that either.

He needs to fight someone with a name and a fanbase. This much money is just icing on the top. He needs a win against someone who would make him marketable again. Right now the public perception is that he's naive and ****** with a recent shitty track record.
                Uhhh that is actually true. 31 wins yet not even a paper interim title. Hes been a mandatory challenger for one version or another for 3 years or so. Yet he never goes in why? because they know Brook cant win a belt so they are cashing Brook in with Khan.

                As for whom he should fight? Shawn Porter who holds a belt.

                    Kell Brook is a guy who ducks mandatory title shots.

                    His only way to stay relevant has been using Khan's name. Can you please name me on guy off of his resume that means jack aside from Senchenko? and that too is a guy who got "stopped" by Paulie not that Paulie is bad but the fact he stopped'em.

                      Khan should fight K or Porter. Both are dangerous well rounded fighters. There aren't too many other fights to take.

                      Edit: someone should elucidate on the ****ing money...first it was $8 mill from Warren, a week later its $5 mill from Hearn...what's it gonna be post tax now $1.2?
