    And the others you mentioned? Didn't Khan beat them despite hitting the floor?

    Hence they did not have one punch KO power & despite being in trouble Khan fought & won

    I wouldn't say Prescott did no, except when he fights Khan lol
    Khan deserved the point deductions he was warned repeatably and lucky not to get DQd and that was my point they don't have power at all nevermind one punch power and had him on the deck and on the verge of getting stopped.
    He is lucky the referee bought him a lot of time against Willie Limmond or that would be another K.O loss.

    The guy hasn't been able to take shots at lightweight or light-welter, I have zero faith in him taking the power of a decent punching, huge welter with great timing.

    Everytime he gets hit he is on the floor, his legs give out or running for his life. He can't take a punch. You'll probably say he was drained or something but the reality is his chin is about as durable as a soggy biscuit and he still has the same flaws he had in his amateur days which was seeing him get dropped.

    His recuperative abilities don't help his cause either. He stays buzzed for minutes, rounds after.

      Khan would start quick but Brook would be landing the harder, more effective shots. Once Brook measures him he would use his superior timing and accuracy, alongside his concussive power, and put Khan to sleep. Probably around round 5 or 6 if Khan didn't get too reckless. If Khan comes for a tear up, he would probably get knocked out within 2 rounds.

          Khan is as dangerous as he is beatable in my opinion.
          Khan should get a title ;-) make himself relevant.
          I personally don't like Khan out the ring.

          But seriously could be a good series.
          I'd definite rely emotionally hedge!!!

            Kell brook completely shatters Amir khan. In fact he shatters everyone at 147 and 154.

              50/50 fight, Khan would need to be on his A game defensively.

                Seriously as a khan fan I'm a tad worried about this fight. Brooks has some pop and his timing is pretty good. He seems disciplined and adapts. Seriously who has khan fought that both has some pop and adapts really well. This is a dangerous fight for khan and the only reason people will pick khan out rightly is by playing the 'untested' card

                  Great fight, I hope this happens. Ok so the guys who has found the flaw in Khan's defense have all had punches they can throw that have a bit of a loop. Prescott, Maidana, Peterson, Garcia. Evn the limond shot was a sort of a chopping shot. Brook throws much shorter, more compact punches and i wonder if he can get that perfect timing to catch khan...i've both in person now and I think khan is def on another level in the speed dept....but he usually is so i dont know who really would have the advantage. i feel like i should know better, but i think i'd lean slightly toward Khan

                    Timing trumps speed though, Khan should know that by now.

                    Brook has very good timing.
