Porter isn't Mayweather or Pacquiao is he? You're acting as if he is.

    you guys overrate Porter just as much as you overrate Brook. And you do that, just so that you can place Brook on this pedestal... lol

    Both Porter and Brook (and Thurman for that matter) all pale in comparison compared to Khan if you look at the quality of opposition they've all faced overall in their careers. Khan's record, by far, surpasses them all in a major way. He's faced much better opposition than all 3 of them overall, could even be argued he's faced better opposition than all 3 of them COMBINED.
    Lets talk about 147.

    Khan's best win was Alexander.

    Alexander was beaten by Porter.

    Porter was beaten by Brook.

    So...

      What I don't get is why is Thurman not assumed to be sellable in the UK? What we know is Thurman is more known internationally. Are UK fans not watching fights other than those shown locally? Why does it have to be Khan for Brook now? That fight can be made later.

        No one knows who Thurman is here. Fight would have to be in the US most likely.

          Brook hasn't done enough to earn a fight with Khan. He's literally got one name fighter on his record - Porter - whereas Khan has something like 8 or 9 name fighters:- Judah, Malignaggi, Maidana, Alexander, Kotelnik, Collazo, Algieri, Barrera... etc..

          It's two different worlds really, Brook needs to actually put himself in some tough fights like Khan has for years and years before trying to get the Khan payday.

          That's the difference with Khan and Brook - no one can deny that Khan has fought far better opposition throughout his career, tough opponent after tough opponent, while Brook has taken the path of least resistance.

          Even at 147 - Khan has only had 4 fights at the weight, while Brook has spent his entire pro career there but overall Khan's fought better opposition at 147 in 4 fights than Brook has in like 35 fights or something.

          Sounds crazy but it's 100% true and it's all on record. So there we have it.

          If Brook fights 2 or 3 name fighters over the next 8 months or so then I'd be interested in the Khan fight end of 2016. Right now however, Brook isn't a worthy opponent, the IBF belt is worth less than toilet paper to Khan.
          What ur doing is comparing resemes, but even doing so youve gotta acknowledge Khan doesnt fight at the top level anymore...proof? Look at his reseme. Comparing resemes arent how fights are won btw, Brook is rated higher than Khan bcuz he has beaten a higher rated welter than khan ever has. Brooks coming into his own, Khan is on the downside(look at his reseme) and is struggling with C, B Class opposition, Brook is obliterating C, B Class opposition. The sooner Khan steps up in class, the sooner he eliminates himself

            Youre rating Khan for what hes done BEFORE Danny Garcia. Thats all you Khan fans can do bcuz he hasnt fought top guys since. I like how you guys rate the Alexander win so high, forgetting that it was Porter who took his rating and his title, then Brook beat Porter(less than a yr ago)...and thats why Brook is ranked higher than Khan.

                LMAO. Are you for real? Actually read what garbage you just wrote. Khan has been at Welter for just over 12 months and in that 12 months has beaten Collazo, Alexander and Algieri.

                Collazo: Coming off his best KO win of Ortiz and now just gave Thurman troubles. A guy Khan had zero trouble with and KD'd three times.

                Alexander: 2 time world champion, need I say more? Yes, he got beat by Porter but he's without a doubt world class anyway.

                Algieri: Beat that beast everyone was saying in Provodnikov and got beat by P4P #2 Pacquiao.

                Now he did that in exactly 12 months. What has Kell Brook done beside beat Porter? He's been at WW all his life and took him this long to fight a top calibre fighter and now they were looking at a lightweight in Rios, which looks like even that isn't happening. If anyone announces a fight like Lopez, it's Brook.

                Brook coming in to his own.. yeah by fighting ****ing Frankie Gavin. Get your senseless crap out of here.

                    Who's not going to laugh if Khan has to face Brook because Mayweather fights Berto, then proceeds to get ****** out?!?!

                    What a great fight. Wouldn't like to call a winner but with my head on a block I'd go with Brook.
