    Secondly, it's a potential wembley stadium fight. Did you think they would waste it on a 10k sheffield motor arena night? Are you that thick?
    So the excuses begin!

    Funny how all of a sudden these Brook fans are appearing out of nowhere....

      Because it is going to be a stadium event, not a Sheffield Arena fight. Stadium events dont happen in the UK in december. We're lucky if the weather allows us to have them in the summer. Khan's American date clashes with the Sky date.

      Khan has been avoiding the Brook fight for years, he'll be getting flattened within the next year.
      The fight won't take place in Scotland kid.

      Stadiums do have rooftop you know....!

      Will be funny when Khan humiliates Brook & all you fake supporters will jump on the next bandwagon

        Not sure where you pulled this gem from, seing as it wasn't mentioned.

        Wembley doesn't have a roof, that is the target location.

        What will be funny is when Khan gets flattened again. What was it against Prescott? Weight drained? And a lucky punch against Garcia? Wonder what it will be this time...the lights were too bright? The canvas colour put him off? We'll find out soon.

            Yeah, cause two of my three favourite fighters don't have losses, right?

            They are in the sig and avatar man, not difficult.

              Me too. Have a big homecoming, and then a big khan fight next year. That's the obvious plan

                You jumped on the Brook bandwagon fast enough, what's to stop you from jumping onto the next..

                  Decent first defense for a domestic fight. Let the guy have at least a defense at home. And style wise Rios is a nightmare for Brook. Remember Carson Jones?? Well!

                  After that he can take on Khan

                    Rios isn't a stylistic nightmare for Brook. Rios is a slow plodder with no outside game, Brook is a good mover with a stiff jab, it's an easy fight. If Rios could cut the ring off and jab his way in, it would be interesting, but he can't so it would be one-sided. Diego Chaves would be a tougher fight for Kell.

                      I'm ok with the opponent, but I think he should continue to build his name up here. Rios needs to be on his A+ game or he's going to get thoroughly out-boxed. He also better be prepared to defend against Brook's clinching.
