    Khan said he is coming back in May so no Brook in June. Khan has no fight yet for May and could just as easily fight Brook in June. I think Khan is afraid to fight Brook. Brook has been trying to fight Khan for years. Khan keeps saying Brook is not on his level. Brook has never lost a fight and never been knocked down. Brook is ranked above Khan. Brook is a world champion. Khan has lost three fights, two by KO. Khan is not a champion. It looks like Brook is on a higher level. Everything Khan says he wants is waiting for him by fighting Brook in the UK. if he can beat Brook. Khan wants a big fight and a big payday. Brook is the biggest fight out there and Brook is calling him out. Khan wants to fight the Mayweather-Pacquiao winner. A win over Brook would make Khan the frontrunner for that.

      Khan was been fixated on an American PPV fight for nearly four years now, ever since he beat Judah. After the Danny Garcia disaster he is scared to fight anyone with a whiff of danger about them because he knows he's on his last life. If he gets stopped again it's game over.

      He sees the risk in Brook and he's a fool if he doesn't. Brook's a strong, sharp welterweight who seems to be growing with every fight. If Kell wants this fight he's going to have to turn the trolling up to eleven. He's got to give Khan no choice but to fight him. A few tweets here and there won't cut it.

        Khan could get the fight any time. He has a better resume than Maidana and is a bigger draw than Maidana and he beat Maidana. I have a feeling he's just pricing himself out every time.

          Why is Maidana the standard? Maidana just happened to be in the right place (high profile win over Broner) at the right time (Floyd needed an opponent).
          Khan on the other hand had nearly been ran out of the ring by Julio Diaz the previous summer and was setting his sights on Luis Collazo.

          Has the Alexander win made people forget what Khan had been doing for the previous three years?

            Khan knows he could lose to May-Pac winner and still get Brook right after but if he lost to Brook he wouldn't get the May-Pac winner. *****.

              Who is Khan fighting to be considered a may winner opponent? Broner? That's a joke. core fans will watch it, casual fans don't care. Even after that fight, he leaves with nothing of interest...or of legitimacy to push that fight.

              Khan is joking himself right out of being a name in the sport. If his style has changed so much, do something, ANYTHING! Make move that says your legit, instead of pu.ssyfooting around in a "cue" he's a year behind in. He has to jump the line and fight someone of calibur, that draws fans, AND the imagination of boxing critics/fans across the board.

              If not, he should just stay out of the ring.

              No way he get's winner of May 2nd opponent, Mayweather has options, Manny has options.

              A year after May, Khan is just another guy. It's Khan who SHOULD be calling out Kell and NOT the other way around. Brook doesn't need Khan.

                The reason Khan fans constantly bring up Maidana, is because it is considered his best win. (Go figure why ) Because Khan barely got the nod in that fight, and everyone called for a rematch, because a case could have been for a draw.

                That stated ..... Brook should do what he's doing. Go to the fight on May 2nd. and try to get the winner to unify the WW division. Khan still has work to do, and talking and name-dropping isn't going to get it done.

                  Bingo, a guy who was ALREADY BEAT and the guy who beat him, lost to KELL BROOK in AMERICA.

                  It's checkmate.

                  Khan calling out Broner is laughable. Will I watch it, yes of course. Does it put him in line beating a guy at 140 who everyone is kinda cold on, no way.

                  Khan fighting Thurman puts him on the map, but, with no hardware to push a big match like a unification.

                  He would lose to Thurman so, that leaves Brook, his only obvious next opponent to push a super fight.

                  And to be frank, if I was a name at 147, why fight Khan? What does he bring really? Money?(nope) It's more of a headache to fight him, and the reward is??? If I was on the rise, i'd step past 'em. He's a non, UK fans only want to see him fight Brook, and US fans (after 5 years) are still trying to figure out were to put this guy. Core fans know him, casual fans do not. No money.

                  So, he's just a guy, on a list @ 147.

                  If he never fights again, honestly, would anyone really care?
