Amir Khan's interview from last night

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Now this is strange. NE is talking about Froch and Ward.

Almost 5 years on here and he hasn't figured out how a forum works.

Khan is avoiding Brook because of the damage it would do to his prospects if he was beaten.

He has also ducked Bradley.

Instead he fought Algieri.

Eddie Hearn called his daddy a name and now the Khan family are all butthurt.

Whatever Khan says - anyone knows the real truth.

Khan is scared of losing to Brook.

In another 12 months Brook could easily be the A side, then Khan would have to find some cheeseburgers for Brook instead of Floyd.

That's what he doesn't seem to get. Or he refuses to acknowledge. The longer he continues to duck Brook, the bigger Brook becomes. He's basically giving Brook free publicity by blatantly avoiding him. He's losing fans whilst Brook is gaining them.

Whereas if he was actually confident of winning the fight, he would end the Brook hype before it got off the ground.

If Brook continues fighting the likes of Gavin and Rios, he isn't making any new fans or making strides in the US. American fans still love him cos he delivered them Maidana, Malignaggi, Judah, Garcia all in eventful fights.

Brook has Porter, which I respect but over in Britain big nights against Hatton and Jones but nothing more than that.

NE is completely shot

Yes, but Brook needs to increase his level of competition in order to ascend Khan.

In a way Khan did him a favor picking Algieri.

If Brook fights a top 5 WW this year and puts on a convincing show then...

Khan is buying cheeseburgers.

Brook-Khan will always be a British event so it doesn't really matter in regards to that fight how big Brook is in America. They're not going to put it on PPV in America.

Right now, most America fans know Brook as "that guy Amir Khan is scared of". Khan is not loved in America or even much of a draw either. You're exaggerating.

Most lol. How about the very few hardcore fans.

The more Khan ducks Brook, the more he's going to be asked about him and the more fans are going to wonder why he's so **** scared to take the fight.

He's literally saying "I'll fight anyone except Kell Brook"

Khan is giving Brook all the free publicity in the world.

Typical Floyd...wait intill as many cards are in his favour as possible....

it's all confidence. In 1-2 weeks he will know whether he wants to take a tougher fight in Khan...OR he will just choose Berto & let Haymon run it all.

It only disadvantages Khan more with the timings....he is already at a disadvantage with Ramadan.

The longer Floyd stalls the more likely it will probably be Khan.
