    It's all about the right fights at the right time. It would be a miracle if Khan got KOed by Chris Algieri and we sure as hell know he ain't getting out pointed. Hell no. Once this May-Pac super fight is over and Khan comes out victorious with his bout, he'll get that fight for fall. Makes a lot of sense that he does given his opposition choice.

    People say Brook this and that, but Brook's fight with Porter did lesser ratings than Garcia-Salka ffs. Khan has been in U.S. for ages now. Doubt Kell gets ahead.

    It's great Khan is taking fights that maximize his chances at the big one in the mean while the forum world squirms in anger. The same people who think Peterson beat Khan despite the circumstances (roids). It's the same sequence where Khan's opponent is picked to stop him then he becomes a bum, shot fighter or his mind wasn't in it or else he would've won wah wah wah.

    Let's be frank. Once Khan fights Brook and beats him, Kell will be dubbed hype job and a guy with a fluke win on Porter who had a fluke win on Alexander etc. All of a sudden the jokes about Brook's resume used by Khan fans would be funny. All cuz now it goes against Khan.
    Lets be frank, Khan ducked Brook (and a title shot) and took Algieiri as the easiest fight he could make.

    It has nothing to do with 'what if' or when 'Brook'...

    By Fighting Algieiri Khan fall further off the WW radar and if Brook gets a solid, decent opponent (not Rios) and beats him well, Brook becomes the A side.

      I never denied Khan is avoiding Brook at this point in time.

      Khan is not risking fighting a puncher because of the big fight he is targeting. Now as for falling off the radar, while Mayweather may not be possible off of Algieri, Pacquiao fought Rios coming off a loss that too at LWW with 0 fights at WW, Mosley (draw and a loss) and Margarito off of a 10 round tune up and most recently Algieri with 0 figts at WW.

        What kind of drugs are you on? Or please tell me you are trolling. Beating non ranked at 147lbs. Algieri coming off a loss with no welterweight wins will lead to the big fight? Khan is clearly ducking Brook and there's no guarantee that Khan beats Brook. Brook's resume at welterweight is on par if not better than Khan's resume at welterweight. Khan beat Collazo and Alexander at 147lbs. Brook beat the guy who beat Alexander for his IBF title in Porter and has more fights at 147lbs while being a welterweight title holder. Khan may have been in the U.S. longer but he's not as liked in the U.S. as Brook is already.

          Don't compare Pacquiao to Khan.

          That shows how much you revere Khan, and how little you really know about boxing.

              So even more reason to not duck Brook.

                What? When did I compare the two?

                All I said was if those guys can get a shot at Pac coming off losses/0 WW fights then Khan is more than qualified. Responding to your WW radar comment.

                Add Tim Bradley to the list who also had 0 fights at WW and got Pac coming off of beating Joel Fossil-mayor at LWW.

                  What did Rios, Margarito, Mosley, Bradley and Algieri do to get it? Khan is more than qualified.

                    Khan knows well Brook will come wagging his tail whenever. Doesn't matter who becomes the "A-side". Even a Khan coming off a loss would do big business even solely for the sake of seeing his career end.
