    Khan doesn't deserve a shot. He should start his campaign at welterweight against a contender and not look to get everything for nothing!!
    The fact that Kell and so many in England hate Khan may just tie this up and they would properly earn career high purses. I would like to see Kell knock ole' glass jaw spark out and that would no doubt be the result but on the other hand I would like Kell to step in with the real boys of the division and those who have earned it ....but good luck Kell I don't think like Khan you will be a swerver but then only time will tell.

      This is a fight that has been brewing for years. It shouldn't be that hard to promote. And they would still have 3 months to do it.

      And if the Wembley is not available for December, aren't there other football stadiums that could host the fight?

        Please, not the "Khan doesn't deserve it" BS again!

        What does Khan deserve then? To hide away in shame?

          The days of boxers "earning" a shot are long gone. It's time to realise this. Or you could bring the issue up every time someone other than just Khan gets a title shot that you do no deem worthy.

                And is it not in may?

                I understand that the fight won't happen in december, I just don't really get why. Only reason I can think of is Brook/Hearn want to milk that belt a bit before they risk it.
