Comments Thread For: Khan: No Pay For Brook, Fought Bums His Whole Career

[alexKO]

Funny because if you were to look at their last 15 opponents, you'd see a whole different scenario.

Let's have a look, shall we?

Khan's resume: Barrera, Kotelnik, Malignaggi, Maidana, Judah, Peterson, Collazo, Alexander.

Kell Brook, who?

No one is denying the fact that Khan fought top opposition at 140, although a washed up Barrera?! Come on now.

The problem people have is that Khan has done absolutely nothing at 147 and as far as resumes go at 147, Brook has the fought the best fighter between the two of them in Porter.

[Larry the boss]

Let's look at it then...

Khan's last 5 fights:

- Algieri (not top 10 or a world champion)
- Alexander (recent champ, #9)
- Collazo (not top 10 or a world champion)
- Molina (not top 10 or a world champion)
- Julio Diaz (not top 10 or a world champion)

Brook's last 5 fights:

- Gavin (not top 10 or a world champion)
- Porter (top 5 and world champion)
- Senchenko (Recent world champion)
- Jo Jo Dan (Not top 10 but Mandatory)
- Alvaro Robles (not top 10 or world champion)

How has Brook been disrespectful? You are the one being disrespectful!

.... Khan, you're deluded and you're ducking like a girl. How about you fight a top 5 guy to earn Brook, because right now you've barely earned the right to fight him and you haven't proved yourself in the WW division because you're still to fight a genuine top welterweight unlike Brook.

Pretty much sums it up

Broner next fighter of the decade doe lmao.

Its funny how lacedup puts Senchenko in brackets as recent world champion but doesn't do it for Collazo, Diaz or Algieri.

Can you just try for a second not to let your dislike of khan get in the way of the facts, Khan has without a doubt fought at a much, much higher level than Kell Brook.

Kell has fought two decent level fighters in his career to date in Senchenko and Porter which are fantastic wins for him and he deserves credit for them.

Khan has fought , Kotelnik , Malignaggi , Maidana , Zab judah , Peterson , Garcia , Diaz , Collazo , Alexander and Algieri, I have left out Barrera , Mcloskey , molina and salita as I think they are poor fighters, excluding barrera but he was shot long before khan, All of these fighters are better if not equal to the two Kell has fought.

You have to give Khan credit weather you like him or not.

I give Khan plenty of credit for his LWW career. I thought he was the best. Exciting fighter who fought everyone or tried to.

The same cannot be said for his "welterweight" career.

[removed]

Khan won't fight Brook because he knows that Brook knocks him out cold and ends his career at the elite level. Pretty simple really.

Nobody turns down 5 million quid for a fight they think they can win.

Nothing difficult to figure out with Khan here. He wants a mega Money or mega Manny fight. He can't afford to lose another fight while trying to get one of those. He loves the spotlight. He loves the money. He wants to simply be in the environment of a Money or Manny fight even as the b-side. It's a desire, dream and ego thing. Many fighters have it and Khan wants "the big one" before taking any major risky fights that could hurt his chances at the mega spotlight PPV.

I don't blame him for wanting that, it's just annoying how he goes about it.

Khan is referring to Brook's "entire career", not just 147. Khan's opponents are way way better than the guys Brook fought in his entire career (except Porter & that guy you branded as recent champ ...there's no doubt about that.

[alexKO]

Brook's a good fighter but we all know Khan's right - Brook only has ONE decent name on his whole resume against Porter, and we all know Porter's B-level at best.

Khan's resume is literally 10 times better than Brooks at this point. Its no question, no debate really. Or as Floyd Sr would say ain't no diggidy and no doubt. Anyone who tries to argue that Brook's resume is somehow better is trolling plain and simple, just ignore them.

Brook's resume at 147 is superior.

[MrRolltide91]

Even if Khan gets knocked out in the first round by Mayweather, he'll go back to Brook and said: "What have you done? I fought on the biggest stage"

Guaranteed. He'll never fight Kell Brook as long as he lives, and will wait until Kell loses so he can say: "see, he wasn't that good" - Completely oblivious to the fact that Khan himself has 3 losses to people he weren't supposed to lose to.

[LacedUp]

Not denying Khan's career opponents were better. At all. Far above Brook's.

But what has he done since getting destroyed by Garcia that's better than Brook? Nothing.

But Senchenko was a recent champ? That's a fact. He was as much a champ as Alexander was.

Also, Khan's winning resume is vastly overrated. Take away Maidana which was an excellent win - and you're stuck with a lot of average guys. Some of which were over the hill.
