    Looking at fights in hindsight is not fair with any fighter. So, "at the time" when Maidana fought Ortiz he was brought in as a sacrificial lamb to be fed to the next Golden Boy and it is another thing Ortiz turned out the way he did. People do the same with Collazo where he was given props for taking a risky fight, NSB picked Collazo by KO, yet now they all the jokes in the world to undermine it.
    Judah was not "the champ" - he was barely ranked in the top 5. The only reason that fight happened was because Bradley b1tched out.

    Khan was a heavy favourite over the ageing Judah.

      True. We've seen Khan making that sort of money throughout his career on his own.

        You've got to give it to them, they keep coming up with new excuses every day.

        If I were them, I'd go hide in a corner because they are the most embarrassing fantardbase currently on NSB and that takes some doing.

        It's funny how they attacked Bradley so severely for years for turning down far less money to fight Khan so he could wait for Pacquaio and now watch how quickly they backtrack when Queen Khan does the same thing.

        It's absolutely staggering.

          Lets revisit one of your old quotes shall we? This was about Bradley turning down Khan....



          Yeah and I turned out wrong because he got the Pacquiao fight twice and made a bucket load of money. Khan is very likely to get Floyd next so he made the right choice and took the correct route for a floyd fight. The problem with the 5m offer is thats only half of the total purse meaning brook would also make 5m. A sold out Wembley and 1m uk ppv generates upwards of 10m.

              But you kept abusing Bradley for ducking Khan, even after he got the Pacquiao fight.

              No Khan was making the lions share of the purse. He would be 6 or 7 million quid richer now had he fought Brook. Instead, he made about a 1/5 of that.

              Right choice doe.

                Kell Brook, you have only stepped up once in your 35 fights so far against Porter...and you won so i give you kudos, but how the hell can you even criticize Khan whose been to the lion's den and won on multiple occasions. He's fought in people's back gardens and beat them ie Paulie and Judah, (could even include Peterson here arguably, since the guy robbed Khan and was on drugs).

                Khan Fought against the odds and won, Maidana was supposed to take Khans head off according the 90% of the boxing world. Sure Khan lost the Garcia fight but that's what happens when you take risks and fight the best...something Brook is not familiar with.

                Brook needs to step up, he had all the momentum after becoming a world champion, since then he's fought absolute tomato cans, it's a joke.

                  Like I said to you then, I share an account I only ever abused him once or twice. As for the lions share, that's not what came out of hearns mouth, and the offer was for 5m not 6 or 7. Post porter and few months later they stood their ground saying things like we are in charge Khan needs to get in line bla bla bla. Does 1m change Brooks life and set him up financially for life as Hearn said? No, a couple of a million does that. I can guarantee you now they would want atleast 3-4million for the Khan bout.

                      It's exactly what came out of Hearn's mouth.



                      Skip to 3.10

                      They know that Khan is the bigger name and are willing to give up the lion's share. Everyone knows this. The 5 million offer was from before Brook was world champion - the fight is worth more now. Khan would have been guaranteed over 5 million and then would get the larger share of the PPV revenue which would do around a million buys. Brook would be more than compensated too.

                      Stop the excuses.
