Khan has had a history of dismissing Brook (who has called out Amir for years now), but looked to have changed his tune once Brook won a title by beating Shawn Porter. After that fight, Amir actually began to acknowledge Brook as a legitimate opponent for himself, but that acknowledgement only lasted a short while. In an interview with ITV, Amir Khan is back to dismissing a Brook as a possible opponent for the time being.
"There's not point in me fighting him just yet, I mean Kell Brook is not on the same level as Amir Khan at the moment. Look, he'll get there one day, and obviously he's begging for the fight against me, but like I said, I'm at a different level where I want to fight the elite level of boxing, I want to fight the biggest names of boxing...My name's getting mentioned between the likes of Manny Pacquiao, Mayweather, Miguel Cotto now. When Manny Pacquiao, Mayweather were asked who Kell Brook is they said they don't know who Kell Brook is, so I think that says it all."
