    You know what my real problem with Khan is. He would gladly stop the MEGA FIGHT of Pac vs May. He actually thinks he deserves the fight more than Pac. It's ****ing absurd. Delusional twit.

      He still has no intention of fighting Brook.

      Beating guys like Collazo and Alexander to get near a Mayweather fight was no problem because they were fights he expected to win. However, fighting Brook for a world title which would make him a legit opponent for Mayweather is not even being considered by Khans team because Brook beats him.

        Boxing is a business. Does Floyd always fight the most deserving fighter? Has he n it avoided fighters because they pose a risk to his rep and therefore earnings?

        Ghost got schooled by FM. Porter got beat by Brook and has no fans. Thurman is a bum who looked average against an average European level guy. Khan is above them in terms of rep, resume and finance.
        Floyd will get 32mil regardless

        Brook over Porter > khan over devon

        Who you think floyd will go with?

        So you think Khan deserves floyd over Pac, Cotto and Danny Garcia?
        Who "deserves the fight more-khan or the guy who knocked Khan out?

          This simply isn't true. Total nonsense in fact. Khan is not Hatton popular in UK, but more popular in the US than Hatton and big in Asia too. The Alexander fight was not as big as Hatton v FM. Fans travel for big fights, this wasn't one. It is about PPV buys.

            I think it will be a Brook fight. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the suggested venues the Man City ground instead of Wembley. Both fighters are from up north, not too far from Manchester and it's also a big stadium. There was still a lot of empty seats at Wembley for Froch v Groves because they were only licensed to hold so many people. The Etihad might be a better location for it.
            Maybe your right although the 80,000 is still a lot more tha. The Etihad. Also it wasn't a licence issue but line of sight

              Not true. Watch his and Oscars interview. They say if FM fights Pac, fair enough. But they dont believe it will happen and if not they want the fight.

                I have no doubt in my mind Khan will fights Brook within the next 4 fights

                I actually think the longer Khan is with Hunter the more of a problem he will be for Brook...

                  Cotto has had his chance and didn't manage to land much. Garcia is a joke. A lucky punch v Khan. That is all he has really achieved. He stugled once to beat Erik Morales. The ancient washed up broke version. Not the legend. He lost clear cut to Herrera. And almost got sparked and beaten by Zab. He doesn't have any fans even in his own country and simply isn't PPV material. Also doesn't have the style to mix with Floyd whatsoever. Good try and good night.

                    Well if he doesn't deserve Mayweather, who does outside of Pac?

                    Seems kinda like a really ******ed and meaningless argument. What does deserve have to do with it? And if you really felt that way you would be mad at Floyd, because Floyd is the one that wanted to fight Khan.

                    Floyd is the one that sent Khan a contract for a fight, not the other way around. So if you have anyone to be mad at, its your proud African women and child beater.

                    Khan deserves the fight, obviously, whatever that means. Brook needs to earn his stripes. He should fight Thurman.

                      There was NO support that is not nonsense , where were Khan's fans.This was top of the bill at the MGM in Vegas. I have never seen so little support and never heard so many excuses surrounding a fighter.It was the most important fight of Amir's career and no one supporting him or do you see it differently ?
