Comments Thread For: Hearn To Speak With Amir Khan on Brook For November

[rich6666]

He fought 2 fights in 8 weeks. 1 was a mandatory. And of course the main difference, he wants the Brook-Khan fight, Khan doesn't.

Ok, so? Kell Brook fought 2 fights in 8 weeks that were underwhelming and no one wanted to see.

One was a mandatory and the other would have been Khan had Amir not lost his balls. Everyone wanted to see Khan-Brook and it wasn't Brook's fault it didn't happen. How does that not register with you?

They should just aim for the spring..

Have Brook fight one or 2 times, and then book a stadium fight next spring

Now Kell Brook's next fight is NOT going to be Khan, lets hope Brook fights someone credible and worthwhile. You agree? I would hate to see Brook fight another underwhelming fight no one wants to see.

The fact that Brook holds a title & him & his people are always talking about Khan, who doesn't even got a title, instead of his fellow title holders says a lot about Brook & Brook's people & what they think of his talent. I understand it, lets grab a payday vs a domestic guy who's on the downslide so we can parlay a undefeated title holder vs the top guys for a even bigger payday, but **** they seem too desperate to make this fight.

His fellow title holder is Floyd Mayweather and Brook would obviously take that fight if offered

[Box-Office]

Khan has stayed relevant by continuously mentioning Floyd Mayweather and fighting underwhelming fights that no one wants to see.

Over a million people watched Khan-Algieri...........on a Friday night.

Khan has stayed relevant by fighting in America outside of his comfort zone. Algieri was coming off pulling Ring Mag upset of the year and PPV fight vs Pac. Both were known names.

Which proves the point Kell's career is attached with mooching off Khan. There are two extremes to Brook, either Khan or the local chip shop guy, either Khan or the mail man.

You can factor out Dan and Gavin, but the fact is there is a clear pattern to his career. The fact remains, 35 fights/wins and the only name that stands out is Porter. It's as simple as that.

Also it seems Rios fell through and we'll most likely see Ashely Theophane or Leonard Bundu. Not looking good.

No it proves that Brook wanted the biggest fight out there and a fight that everyone except Khantards wanted to see.

The IBF belt is secondary in a Brook vs Khan scrap.

The UK has got two guys ranked in the top 10 at welterweight and we wanna know who the best is.

Based on ability, it looks a close fight on paper.

I don't believe the wider public do want to see brook vs khan... Not as much as heArne makes out .... No one knows who brook is to begin with!


Neither have great personalities and there's not really any kind of narrative that gets the casual non boxing fan hyped.... It's nothing like a froch groves, and nowhere near eubank Benn level , so why does the casual person care?

It's just 2 good British boxers fighting one another, so it will be big, but don't think it's too ****ey apart from that!
