Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: Without IBF Belt, Kell Brook Brings Nothing

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Guererro who went the distance in a close fight with Kamegai? Really...Kamegai? Alexander who got beat by Porter and lost his belt? I guess those make more sense than undefeated WBA interim champion Keith Thurman? NOT!!!

Well they do because no one cares that Keith Thurman is WBA interim champion. No one cares about Keith Thurman. I like him, he's a good fighter but you need to understand that he is not a name in the real world.

It's not about what I want, it's about being realistic. If you took your head out of your own arse for 2 seconds, you'd understand how the business works.

You know how the business works...let's not fight Alexander for his title and maybe we can still get a match with Floyd...Damn Maidana took the title from Broner...Damn Maidana got the fight on Cinco de Mayo....Damn Maidana got a rematch with Floyd...Damn who am I gonna fight? It's not my head up my arse.

Did Maidana get an immediate rematch from Khan? How about Julio Diaz? I guess those are different circumstances. Garcia not only beat Khan, he beat Matthysse too, and now Peterson is next. Garcia might do what Khan couldn't...unify the 140 division. He doesn't need Khan, just like Manny and Floyd. Khan better go big or go home. Time to MAN UP!

Like I told you once and I'll tell you again:

Every other Welterweight not named Manny is simply a moocher off of Floyd's riches

Amir Khan brings money to the table. $15 million (or more) to be specific (calculations contained in a previous post I made in a similar thread (you ducked that post as I recall)

The pot of gold is bigger in a fight with Amir (as opposed to Porter, Thurman, or Garcia)

When Amir smashes Guerrero, he's going to get the fight.

I know it & you know it and I *LOVE* that you and all the Khan haters are so butthurt about it

ROFL

wtf? who says what about the odds? these are two fringe fighters on the up both with nobodies at world level on either resume so why pick porter?
because hes a yank? been done before and prooved not to be the case at all.
joe calzaghe (the most recent) was expected by the so called kings of everything to be kod by that bum jeff lacy and look what happened, hamed vs johnson,kelly...nigel benn vs dewitt,barkley,mclelland...and on and on and on...
they dont rule nish.
kell will win.
its a good fight either way but, i edge kell brook.

Oh wow, Amir brings so much crowd that his promoter is forced to give free tickets in exchange of toys to somehow fill the arena.

I have to say, Good Post.

-However, Khan vs Brook would be in U.K. and even for Khan's learning fights against a journeyman like Michael Gomez he sold out 10,000, which wasn't even in his hometown of Manchester, but Birmingham.

-Now let's look at Khan vs someone like Paul McCloskey in Amir's home of Manchester, which had 18,000 people at hand.

- Brook's biggest fight to date was Senchenko that had only 8,000 people and that too in his hometown of Sheffield.

So, Khan does bring bigger crowds, plus even if it was in U.S. whom do you think the public would know more?
