    Honestly can't wait for Brook to take a loss and stop being flavor of the week. Khan has done 10x more whether you like him or not.
    Only the biggest and baddest from here on out for the Special One.

    Fact is Brook's "big fight" is going to be Punching Bag Bag Rios.

    Khan should get a % of his purse. Brook has shamelessly used Khan's name to become a somebody. Otherwise he'd just be another belt holder.

      Khan was saying he was on the level of Mayweather and Pacquiao (lol) and wanted a bigger name than Brook before fighting Algieri.

      Guy is a total ******. Just like his fanboys.
      Yes, and you told me rankings don't mean anything when I argued Collazo was WBA top 10 before Khan only to brag about Froch's WBC #1 spot against Calzaghe just hours ago.

      6 weeks? Oh the horror. Brook has been in stay busy fights since his pro debut (minus Porter). It wouldn't be so bad if he wasn't bad mouthing Khan-Algieri only to discuss his bout against Gavin in the same damn video.

        The whole Khan-Brook debate starts and ends here.

          All this 'which fight is worse' talk is ridiculous when people are overlooking the simple facts of 'why' it's even happening!

            Lol, so were Robles, Hatton (Matthew that is), Jones and Saldivia right?
            All Khan's fault.

            While yes, Khan b1tched out from fighting Brook and pathetically uses religion as a shield the fact is Brook himself has never ever fought a live opponent besides Porter and Senchenko who had been stopped by Malignaggi ffs.

            There is a genuine pattern of him using Khan's name only to resort to fighting a floor sweeper. Look at what both guys have done by the 33 fight mark. Khan is a warrior and will go back to fighting a viable threat if Mayweather doesn't come through where as Brook will be fighting a Brandon Rios.

              WTF are you talking about ? Dude you're in a sink hole. I told you it was absolutely ******ed to say Collazo was a top 10 WW because he was in some alphabet ranking. Which it is.

              As if the two have anything to do with each other, you said Froch didn't deserve Calzaghe and hadn't even fought British level - which I said was totally laughable and factually incorrect as Froch had handily beaten Magee, Reid, Dodson and the likes + was british and commonwealth champion

              And then I added he was mandatory for joe's belt.

              Anyway, keep reaching mate.

                I'm not making excuses for those fights or Brooks past,

                I'm looking at the present and future and from what I have seen recently, Khan is in the wrong.

                Brook doesn't have an amazing list but it's clear that he wanted to fight Khan and was turned away, my issue isn't 1,2,5 years ago etc, or anyones resume, but the issue is with people who do not give the opportunity to prove their resumes by beating other socalled 'elite' fighters

                  He hasn't fought a viable threat in 3 years and likely won't again. We all know he'll never step in with a puncher again. He'll stick to boring decision wins over guys who can't punch their way through a wet paper bag like Algieri and Alexander whilst keeping on telling us that the reason he's so liked is the "speed, power & explosiveness".

                  He's like a parrot Khan. He really is. Here are Khan's favourite 3 phrases:

                  "Speed, power, movement & explosiveness"

                  "Styles makes fights"

                  "Mayweather"

                    Yeah, he was mandatory for Joe's belt, where he was ranked #1 by wink wink an alphabet organization ffs.

                    I never said Froch didn't deserve Calzaghe. Stop putting words in my mouth. I said Carl was irrelevant to Joe, yet another domestic champ calling him out. Much like Froch and Degale.

                    Reaching? You're the one who made my Joe-Carl thread about Khan and me being jealous of Froch.
