      People actually bringing up "Brook is a nobody". Who cares, there's $5mill on the table. You don't see Wlad giving a **** about fighting a nobody in Lepai.

      Oh I get it, Brook is a nobody who could kick Khan's ass

          Even though this is a good fight for Khan but Kell Brook win wont bring a career boost and only $ and when Khan beats him it will be "oh who is kell brook", because really who is he?

          If Khan was all about the payday he wouldve been on this. If Brook is such a world beater whom did he beat?

          Brook just cant keep Khan's you know what outta his mouth to stay relevant.
          He says "fight me and retire rich" yet hes the one living with his parents.

          Khan needs to fight Shawn Porter because beyond experience at 147 a win will bring less $, "BUT" belt, solid/credible if not big name

          Some people are such jokers here claiming Khan is ducking Brook. Yet when he does beat'em it'll be the same "who is kell brook?" crap.

            I doubt Khan could find a better deal elsewhere, he should strongly consider it.

            Also it's not like Kell Brook is a world beater. His best opponent was a 38 year old and he got rocked in that fight.

            I think it's a very competitive fight. Both have flaws, questionable chins, and it'll make money. Khan should take it.

              There isn't 5 million on the table its a publicity stunt. Khans a greedy ****er who fought Peterson in his back yard for a few extra 100k. You think he'll turn down a fight for more than he'd get for Floyd.

                Molina was a sacrificial comeback fight. Diaz drew with Porter a fight before and was at least a world champion.

                Heavyweight division's depth is not that of Welterweight so try another analogy.

                If Khan beats Brook it'll be "who is kell brook?" and "beating brook doesnt bring mayweather" remarks. Kell Brook has 31 wins and not even an interim world title. Really who is he? Khan smashes anyone on Brook's resume hell even Paulie managed to stop the great Senchenko.

                  Got this off of Khan's twitter:

                  31 fights each

                  Khan - Wins 719, Losses 157

                  Brook - Wins 622, Losses 917

                  Excluding any World title fights let alone defenses for Kell Brook and biggest name on Brook is Senchenko and Khan is the duck. Brilliant just brilliant.

                    Mandatory, otherwise he;d have to vacate his WBO belt

                      Very true

                      Hern is just mouthing off to the media, trying to create publicity

                      Like Khan said before if he wants to make an offer go talk to GBP

                      Hern just pulling numbers from thin air without doing all the leg work, he's done this 3 years running, why doesnt he just go talk to GBP
