Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Reacts: I Don't Care About Brook or Hearn

[Unseen]

I'm not too sure why this fight doesn't make sense to Amir Khan. Win and you get the IBF belt, draw huge numbers at the Wembley (a very bug reason why the fight isn't appealing to Floyd at the moment) and it also builds his reputation as possibly the most deserving fighter in the division (not named Pacquiao) that could likely face Floyd. I don't see Khan stepping in the ring with Marquez or Thurman (Khan's jaw is itching for a ko punch from either, although a win over either would build lots of WW credibility), so the only other options are Brook, Bradley or Guerrero. The biggest draw of the 3 would be a fight against Kell... Its literally the only logical route at WW.

Khan wanted JMM years a go. Nacho declined.

Really? Its not even close to the same thing.

He doesn't even realise he is ****ting on Pacquiao.

[Reloaded]

Here's the basic problem:
Khan believes he's above Brook.

Why?



.

Its obvious , so he dont have to fight him thats why .

"Khan isn't a big enough name." - Floyd

"Brook isn't a big enough name." - Khan

"Khan needs a big-time PPV win." - Floyd

"Brook needs a big-time win." - Khan

"Khan gets knocked out when he steps up" - Floyd

"Brook....damnit, he's undefeated" - Khan


"Khan, fight Brook. Mayweather, fight Pacquiao." - Boxing fans

This is exactly it! Mayweather v Pacquiao with Khan v Brook on the undercard!

[DonSimon87]

Yea. The fact is Brook is still small, and just came on the scene.

Khan is in line for Pac or Floyd fight. Everyone else paddles, Brook paddled his whole career.

Khan has to fight whoever whenever, everytime?

Why doesn't Brook fight Thurman? Thats the bigger question.

Khan has the power, and is going to wait for the big fights.

I support Khan refusing Hearn, a known racist, from a big fight. Khan is doing the right thing.

Why doesn't Khan face Thurman?

Khan is just looking for the safest route to the Mayweather lottery ticket. If he doesn't get the May fight expect him to fight Guerrero and hold out for a Pac fight.

Khan v Brook would be a great fight and would actually do his legacy well by having that 'domestic showdown' victory. Who has George Groves beat before facing Froch? Yet after the two wins, Froch's legacy is fully intact.

Mayweather said Pacquiao's PPV sales are **** and that he still has Marquez problems.

Floyd Mayweather....always complimentary about his opponents, isn't he?

Nothing new there Di k

Neither Khan or Brook's resume at welterweight is that impressive, but at least Brook has a belt. Khan's best win at welterweight is Devon Alexander, and Brook beat the guy who beat him.

This has no concern to Floyd. He has fought men with little to no experience at 147, numerous times.

Triangle theories dont really count, one could argue Brook avoided the guy Khan just fought. There was a lot of worry in Brooks camp about facing Devon, he was seen as a serious threat.

Khan is still in the running's for the Floyd fight, he should wait and see as to what happens. Brook needs to look at other options, if he had a better resume, he would also be in the Floyd sweepstakes, which is the underlining difference between Khan and Brook.

[FrankieBruno]

I'd rather Khan be the welcoming to Danny Garcia's move to 147

Possible

but does Danny really want to lose his "0", which he seems to use has a selling point - similar to Floyd

He'll get what 3 mil to fight Floyd?

He could fight Peterson next, then fight Broner, rematch Lucas and Khan - all of which would be far easier fights for him,. earn a boatload of money and still keep his 0

To me it seems Danny and Angel dont want to fight Floyd.

I would say it's Amir who needs to look at other options and not spend another year out doing nothing but praying .Mayweather has denounced this three time loser as a nobody , who's a no one in America and has nothing but a few twitter fans, hardly a' Hatton type atmosphere ' and I don't think he's clocked on to how despised he is in the UK. but it's hardly the way that Floyd goes about promoting his next mega fight...move on Amir stop begging .Regards resume Brook is unbeaten Khan has been beaten three times and knock to pieces twice....Great RESUME !

He said he'll wait until mid Jan before he starts looking for a different opponent

Right now he feels there is a chance he lands the Floyd fight.

If Khan is such a loser, Floyd wuldnt have made polls with his name, he wudnt have paid him 1.5 mil to fight on his undercard, promised to fight him if he fought on his undercard, nor wud he have sent him a contract to sign

What comes out of Floyds mouth can never be taken seriously. However a solid source has told us negotiations have already started between Khan and Floyd, therefore Khan is right to wait
