      True, Khan can absorb the loss (as long as it isn't too bad) and still have a big fight with Brook. But I think if Brook loses before that fight all the air goes out of it.

        It's all talk it doesn't matter what he said. It holds as much value as Keith Thurman calling out everyone.

        Eddie Hearn, the guy who calls the shot, made it more than clear than Kell will have a soft touch in his first title defense, a known name, but a soft touch.

        Business wise it makes sense, why go into a "risky" fight right after pulling off a huge upset?

          Aggressively seeking out a man who just got stabbed?

            He wants a shot at Mayweather. That's it.

              Eddie Hearn has also recently stated they are going to pursue the Khan fight first.

              The plan was for a first defence in December with Khan next in a stadium fight, when the weather in the UK allows a stadium fight to take place.

              They are both happy to return with a Khan fight, as both have no doubt of a Brook victory.

                Well obviously since it's his biggest fight/payday out there. Mayweather isn't going to fight Brook.

                  Because Brook would beat his ass and that's not a good look when Khan has been saying Brook wasn't on his level for years now.

                    Because Brook v Khan is in the bag so to speak and can happen at any time, in 6 months or a year or so down the line, there is bad feeling between them two and the fight wont need to be built up.

                    Floyd cant wait so much though. At least Brook has a nice win now, even if it was by holding all night. So Brook don't need to panic now, Khan will fit him in im sure of that.

                      Funny when Bradley blatantly ducked Khan holding out to fight Pacquiaio most of you considered it a "smart business decision".

                      Khan holding out to try and get a pay day, and he gets **** for it.

                      Funny how the double standard and level of bias is conditional.SMDH!!!!!!!!!
