Who does brook think would be a good fight to probe khans worth to fight Floyd

Obviously himself, is he struggling for a payday that bad, reminds me of Witter calling out Hatton all the time

I have a BIG issue with this "Khan has not done enough to earn a shot at the biggest star in boxing." remark.

Mayweather is "the biggest star" according to whom exactly, other than his fans?

To many of us, Pacquiao is the biggest star in boxing, and has been so in the last decade or so, in spite of that robbery decision vs. Bradley and that one-wonder-shot loss to Marquez.

Also, to many of us, Floyd actually has two losses in his career, vs. Castillo in their first fight and vs. De La Hoya. So no matter how hard his biased fans push for it, they will not convince a huge percentage of boxing fans that he is supposed to be the best.

Also, let's say they were equals in boxing level (which they aren't, Pac has bigger accomplishments, his only problem is not being an American) just for loyalty, love and appreciation for the sport, people should root for Pac more than Floyd. It's very simple, Pac is a wholesome fighter, no tricks whatsoever, he FiGHTS. Period. Like a man. He doesn't use tricks (tons of grabbing, clinching, elbowing), he can fight going forwards and backwards, he is never afraid of anyone no matter the size, and he has better hand speed, more punching power, better leg movement than Floyd. Only his defense is not as good, simply because he doesn't cheat like Floyd (clinching excessively and never getting point deductions), grabbing a lot, elbowing. Pac is a bona fide and very humble fighter, he goes in there to fight, and he takes his chances. He is hated by Floyd fans mostly, because he is so good a fighter, whereas Floyd is hated because he is a cheater, trickster, cowardly super-boring so called "fighter" who enjoys the favor of both the referees and judges simply because he is an American, fighting always on American soil, and has the tons of millions of dollars to buy everybody, including his opponents on occasion.

So guys, please be careful on throwing out such statements as calling someone "the biggest star" when you perfectly know there is absolutely no consensus about such an affirmation!

Numbers don't lie. Elie Sechback thought that Salita was the biggest star in boxing also. figure that, son.

hell it was more impressive than pacquiao beating bradley ..

Good ****ing grief.

Alexander has been roughed around by Bradley and Porter, but never out boxed from the outside like that

Take it you missed his fight with Kotelnik?

Brook has a belt, he should get a mayweather shot.
