      Lol you got to be trolling, Khan or Brook alone can fill O2, this fight will happen at Wembley 80,000 if Brook beats Porter, just wait and watch.

        With good promotion it could fill one of the smaller stadiums and pull in 30,000-40,000 people, but no way could they sell out somewhere like Wembley or Old Trafford. Brook is still relatively unknown to casual fans and Khan doesn't draw enough to the point where the opponent doesn't need to be that well known.

          The reason Froch-Groves II was huge was due to the controversy in the first fight. Khan-Brook could do 40-50k, though

            It should be... If Brook can beat Porter he has more than prove himself more than the likes of Groves and whereas Khan I'd still rate him above Froch in current British boxers.
            Khan has fought the more talented fighters and won most of them whereas Froch has found himself being outclassed many a times by guys he shouldn't be for his suppose to be high ranking.

                Khan would take on Kell after this fight win or lose. Should Kell win Khan wants the title and after Kell loses, Khan sees little risk. Kell is day dreaming, when he should focus. Win this and Khan can get in line.

                  Wrong. Khan will only fight Brook if he wins. That is pretty clear. He was already offered huge money to face Brook before and he didn't take it.

                    Kell spends way too much time talking about Khan. His career has been so dependant on riding Khan's popularity.

                    Worry about Porter first then see what other opportunities are out there if you win

                      I was thinking maybe the Reebok Stadium in Bolton (or Macron or whatever the stadium is called now)

                      It's in Khan's hometown but it's not a million miles away from Sheffield either. I'm sure Brook would be happy to fight Khan anywhere and Khan is the bigger name right now.

                      I think it would definitely happen up north somewhere, so aside from Bolton, the most likely place would be Manchester, maybe the Ethiad if they're looking at stadiums.
