Comments Thread For: Brook Requests Two More Fights Before Summer's End

[NEETzsche]

that would be great, but probably at least one of those fights would be another dud. it's hard to keep the level of opposition up when you're that active (as golovkin and gonzalez demonstrate, for example)

no it will be 2 fights a year

you need to understand the politics of boxings

Kell needs Khan more then Khan needs Kell

your an idiot, Khan needs someone big, but he'll fight Algieri for peanuts. Kell will fill an arena as the headliner and make a ton, Khan will be on an undercard, simple as that really, Khan is just turning down the most money he could make outside of Mayweather or pac

Kell wants Khan more than Khan wants Kell too.

[brettWall]

Quit the talk and start negotiating already. Khan is not fighting you.

why is a champion virtually begging for a contender to fight

yes Kell is begging

If he fights twice, then Rios is definitely an acceptable fight. I have Rios as a fringe top 10 welterweight.

Of course, Rios is not elite and will never win a title at 147..but he's tough, solid competition.

Its simple. Hes not calling out other contenders the way hes calling out Khan because hes interested in fighting his domestic rival in what would be a HUGE fight in the UK for a world title and their biggest purse to date. Theres NO logical reason the fights not happening, its like asking why Pacquiao was begging for a Mayweather fight, it just makes sense. Years ago Khan kept mocking Brook and saying he had to beat a name and win a title, and Brook has done both those things

Khan isnt in a better position by any means. Brooks making money fighting while Khan is sitting on the sidelines praying he talks himself in a big fight. Brook is higher on the totem pole than Khan is at the moment. Khan is known in the US for being knocked out, thats it.

If that is the case Brook is bigger then Khan then why the constant begging of wanting to fight

Since when to champions beg contenders

That's what makes it pathetic. To me the reason is simple. Khan is a huge money fight for them. WIN or LOSE. They have a hard time exploring other fights. Brook might lose, therefore lose the Khan fight.

The guy is not confident in winning other fights.
