    Don't expect it to be against someone credible, believe me.

    Khan will fight Guerrero, Brook possibly a no name.
    This

    After all his years of talking he will not want khan now.

    A bit like Hatton/Witter :- Hatton refused to fight Witter even when he became a somebody. Only difference is Khan willing to give Brook the chance to get his ass whopped

      This sport is called PRIZEfighting. Whenever a guy brings the chance of a huge amount of money he deserves the fight in the opponents eyes.

        These guys just don't get it. Brook-Khan is not only big $, but only became interesting for BOTH men when that Porter decision was announced. Before that it was a one way street (for Brook).

        I also find it comical when all these kids cheer on Brook to tell off Khan, I mean this isn't high school where it is now the nerd's turn to ignore the hot chick.

          Khan’s team need to be very cautious here… like they always are. Khan can get beaten by Mayflower and it’s not a big issue. It's expected. As long as he makes a good fight out of it his career would be OK with more losses to any of the elite names.

          But, if Khan gets beaten by Brook, it will end his career. Where can he go after that? He will officially & permanently be seen as "not even the best in the UK". Busted down to domestic means no more big paydays against the elite.

          Brook is probably the worst fight Khan can take right now, and I see the fight being very one sided in Brook's favour.

            Stop talking nonsense. Khan isn't willing to do anything for Brook. He's offering to take what he perceives as an easier route. Who else can he fight for a title? Where else does he get such a big stage? There's only Mayweather, Pacquiao, Brook & Thurman as interim. They're his only options for progression. Everything else - no matter how tough - will be seen as an under performance unless he wins in a really impressive way.... KOing Guerrero for example.

            If he wants to be taken seriously Khan's got limited choices. His management can only preserve him for the Mayweather fight for so long before he has to face a legitimate threat.

              Why should he give Alexander another opportunity? Fighting JMM or Bradley would be more lucrative and better for his career, assuming he wins.

                Brook should fight someone like Berto, the difference in speed between Floyd/Khan to anyone he has currently fought is pretty big.
