    Why ? So is Khan ******ed cause he passed on every opportunity to test the waters of landing May-Pac? Brook has a belt that can possibly be a trump.card. Its like Maidana testing the waters for a Mayweather fight instead of giving Broner his rematch. Its not far fetched.

I don't like him but Brook holds way, way too much and even if Khan isn't very good he puts on good fights. Well, he used to with Roach we'll see what happens when he doesn't face guys he's supposed to beat with ease.
      How many fights of Brook have you seen? Let me venture a guess at 1. And you must have seen even fewer of Khan under Hunter because he does his share of clinching too.

        Make It Happen! Also put Dirrell vs DeGale on the same Card that would be AWESOME!

          Because if Khan says he'll fight him at Wembley in June, there's not a snowball's chance in hell that Brook would pass on it. It's his biggest payday out there and it's his chance to become a star.

          It's very very unlikely that he'd be considered for Mayweather or Pacquiao without beating Khan first. No one knows who Brook is in America - it would bomb on PPV.

            I think PPVs will be fine after Pac- May have fought each other. The public was tired of the bs and the bs will be out the way plus Pac said he'd go to Wembley. I don't know, I think with Kell having that belt there is a possibility. We'll see how it plays out though but I think its crazy to think Kell wouldn't even attempt to land that fight just to see if Floyd lr Pac bite, he'd at least take a chance.

              The only reason it wouldn't happen is if Khan gets a name in America like Bradley or Marquez.

              Otherwise there's no excuse really.
              It is too soon if Brook goes through with his fight at the end of March, which its looking like he will. That would leave 2 months to proceed with promoting the fight and an 6-8 week training camp, and that's assuming Brook wins the fight unscathed without any cuts or injuries. It's alot to demand of a fighter to have no rest before the biggest fight of his career.

                So you think between Pac-May winner and Khan that Kell would pick Khan?

                    Well, Brook has won the Lonsdale belt outright, so it's natural for him to get a 70-30 split.

                      He is fighting his first opponent on March 28th, since the stabbing incident, which is his mandatory, so he can't skip.
