    Nope. Brook has only ever fought 1 world champion in his entire career, Shawn Porter. That's it. Every other opponent he has ever fought has never held a world champion title.

      Is mayweather supposed to be impressed by Khan drawing in 1/4 the amount Mayweather got to pay for his last fight - for free?

      What if Brook-Gavin did 500k PPV? That's much more impressive.
      Seriously? You're comparing Khan's fight against Algieri to Mayweather's "Fight of the Century" against Pacquiao? Now you're just being silly.

      And Brook-Gavin would be lucky to do even 50k PPV. That's just extremely wishful thinking to think it could do 500k.

        Senchenko held a world title.

        Not that it even matters.

        More **** measuring competitions by Khantards instead of actually settling it in the ring.

          i'd have to go with Khan, he's the bigger name, the bigger talent and the more interesting style match up.

          Floyd is fighting for money and after the #48 jackpot he'll cash out against a talented but vulnerable foe who brings with him a very dedicated fanbase (TBE loves the UK).

          it will be great entertainment that's for sure, i'll be there.

            Sad.
            Making comparisons.

            If Brook and Mayweather had a common opponent you'd be doing exactly that considering how much of a Brook bum boy you've become over the last few months. Too bad Mayweather is not fighting Senchenko, Robles or Carson Jones of the World.

              What homie doesn't seem to get is that there is a world of difference between someone PAYING to watch a fight and someone watching it for FREE on TV.

              That's like saying that 3 million watched the Superbowl on FREE TV. But how many would have paid to watch the game on PPV. One doesn't translate to the other, especially when real money is coming out of your pocket per event.


              Side-note: Cable isn't free, but you understand the point

                Amir Khan would bring in significantly more ppv sales than Brook, so Floyd would pick him. Also if Floyd would ko khan that would help his legacy more than a 12 round decision over brook.

                  That's all you guys are left with. It's very sad. "Oh Khan did this and Brook did that".

                  Wouldn't you rather say "Khan beat Brook in the ring, one on one" instead of all these pathetic **** measuring contests?

                  Just sad.

                    "The Brit's 12-round win over Chris Algieri on Friday, May 29 topped a PBC on Spike TV show that averaged 772,000 viewers over the course of the telecast. The headlining battle between former 140 lb. titlists averaged 1 million viewers on the night."

                    Plus that is FREE TV, which puts things into perspective.
                    Haha the whole show averaged 772 K, but what the hell does that got to do with Khan-Algieri, which was over a million? You've only proven my point.


                    Plus that was on a Friday night. Who stays home on a Friday night?

                      He will and that fight will happen in due time.

                      However, this thread is about who should get Mayweather between Brook and Khan and I'm arguing the case for Amir.

                      Kell-ends in general keep bringing up how Kell is a World Champion, the only thing he got over Khan, so if you guys had more you too would be bragging about it.
