Comments Thread For: Khan Eyes Fall Return, Explains Why it Won't Be Brook

[MDPopescu]

There is no logical reason to not fight Brook right now.

Most money he's ever made

Massive fight in the UK at Wembley

The IBF title.

What a shameless duck.

Who's Khan kidding when he says that they couldn't fill Wembley? They could easily fill Wembley.

... Well, there is a logical reason: Brook is more intelligent and would clinch Khan anytime he needs to... Brook is also fast and hits hard enough in order to scare Khan out from such a fight...

The fights going to be at a stadium. So of course it not going be in Nov or Dec. Why dont people use their head when they say he is ducking Brook.

I m, happy for it to happen in the summer of next year.

In the mean time, both needs to fight a top 10 fighter next.

This guy is not just the most deluded lier in boxing it seems in the world !
After reading Khan's 'yesterdays' posts you think he can't get any worst ...HE DOES !
For a man of Khan's abilities and to date Brooks, £5-10 million pounds is a massive amount of money and again Khan saying that a fight in the future could be worth £100 million is plain ******ity and totally deluded. It would only take one of them to lose and a figure of £5 million would be beyond reach.
What makes Khan's fights watchable beyond the consistent holding pulling down and pushing is the fact that he's so vulnerable and gets hurt by even the lightest of hitters like Algieri and Limond to name just two.
Khan keeps on saying he will fight anyone and look at the facts , he actually fights no one .
This IS a complete DUCK and if you can't see this blatant runner then your'e watching the wrong sport.

... £100 million fight? ... Just how? ... Haymon doesn't have "Dubai connections"... They can't even make a £20 million fight out of it...

Khan is talking himself into a corner. If he's saying Brook is not proven, then does that mean who he fights next will be proven? If so, he loses. He could have took the Brook fight and made more money for taking the same L.

Because there's no way he will fight another Collazo or Algieri is there?

I'm not even a Khan fan, but Brook is the bigger clown, if you're thinking sensibly. If I were a champion I would chart my own career and not rely on anybody. All roads will lead to me and they would be begging for my attention. Not the other way around.

Are you UK fans still buying tickets for that clown? It's sad people still support such a cowardly liar and loser.

I really hope Brook fights Thurman, beats him and then gets a Pacuqiao or even Mayweather fight while Khan gets knocked silly by his next cherrypick.

No way Khan will face any serious puncher or dangerous fighter at Welterweight.

sounds like peterson vs khan part 2...peterson should apply heavy pressure from the go with head movement and over the top loops shots as he ducks khan's same old one two...khan needs to go..

[deathofaclown]

Khan's excuse is that he wants the fight to grow more but i don't see how it could be that much bigger.

The reason i say this is because Khan says Brook needs to fight a bigger name but you have to understand that 90% of the revenue from this fight in the UK would come from casuals or non-followers of the sport. Once Sky and the British press got their hype machine going, they would make it have huge crossover appeal like Froch v Groves.

Now given the fact is pretty much most of the revenue comes from people who don't know the sport, for Brook to beat Thurman or Bradley would mean as much to them as Brook beating JoJo Dan. These people don't know their Rod Salka's from their Keith Thurman's. Most of them probably know Floyd, Manny, Khan and Brook in the UK, as far a WW's go. And even then they probably couldn't tell you what weight class they fight in.

And the rest of the people who do actually follow boxing know it's a legit fight. So what's the problem?

This fight could be huge right now. All it needs is the Sky hype along with the British press. Sky could probably sell sand to the Arab's.

This is a straight up duck. Khan does not want to fight him because he's scared he loses to another Brit. It would be a much more damaging loss than losing to anybody else.
