    I like Brook, but I am getting tired of him fighting cans. There is no excuse for not stepping up the level of competition.

    And people act like the Porter vs Brook was a one sided affair. Fight was pretty close.

    You can think what you want. But at least Kahn has been fighting relevant fighters. Brooks been dealing with Euro level fighters.

    I am curious who both are going to fight next. If Kahn really wants to build up the fight. He needs to fight a real welterweight (Thurman). Actually they both need to fight top tier fighters for the fight to build up

        If you can flip flop over sanctioning bodies then my opinion can at least evolve.

        After listening to Amir's latest interview I agree that it would be bigger next year. You worry about the bum Brook fights next.
        Wtf? When did I bring up race? Please let me see a quote from me. Saying that Pakistanis are more likely to be fans of Khan is not bringing up race, it's brining up nationality. And it's a stone cold fact. Similarly to British fighters being more likely to have fans from britain (this also includes Khan).

        I never mentioned anything about brown people or anything like that ever, so don't even try it.

        After listening to Amir's latest interview? Seriously dude? He's been saying the same thing for years. nothing new.

        It doesn't make him duck less, but more. He says in one interview that he's the boss. Then suddenly Haymon is the boss. First Brook had proved himself, then he hasn't .

        All of a sudden it needs to be a £100million fight before Khan takes it and you eat it right up.

        Come on.

          I wouldn't be surprised if Brook fights Rod Salka. 99% of his opponents throughout his career have been around the same level as Salka.

          Hope Brook steps it up soon though, maybe he should fight Collazo, Alexander, Algieri or even Julio Diaz?

            You can pick apart any resume. However, with Brook you can't even try.
            He was the world champion? But Brook's world championship doesn't mean anything?

            Did Bailey not throw less than 100 punches in a 12 round fight? had he not lost to journeymen throughout his career? Neither him or Mike Jones were top 10 welterweights when they fought for a vacant belt. So who cares?

            He clearly lost the Matthysse fight, and also clearly lost the Kotelnik fight.

            Wow, he has a solid win and shows up at #13 a couple of months after? What a disgrace!!

            Newsflash, that's how those rankings work my friend.

              Why would he fight those featherfisted lightwelterweights?

              Even if he fought them all one after another and destroyed them all with one punch in the first second of the first round, you'd just turn around and say he fought Khan's leftovers.

                Ummm the fact that only people of Khan's background support him. All so you could discredit the opposition's arguments. Lame.

                I'm not implying you're racist btw. I actually look forward to use you as my nsb punching bag. Take that as a compliment.

                Khan's next opponent will say it all.

                  I'm saying Alexander fought Bailey because that was the guy in his division holding a World title. Did I say it doesn't matter? Strawman much?

                  Why the hell does it matter how many punches he threw? We all know all it takes is one shot from Bailey? He is the original One Time.

                  Also we're talking Alexander here. Alexander won it off a champion. You're just reaching for straws talking about Bailey winning it as vacant. This is on par with your lame argument about being WW champ is more prestigious than LWW. I mean if WBC becomes vacant and Khan wins are you gonna preach this same non-sense?

                  He won the fight in Jan. He wasn't there in Feb, March, April and all of a sudden he shows up at #13 in........May. Feb,March and April are not couple of months by any mathematical stretch and also why would it take even couple of months as you put it to update their rankings?

                    Not just a $100m fight.. He wants to let it stew so it generates the same as Mayweather Pacquiao. $500m we're talking here!

                    Also Kell needs to beat names like Bradley like Khan apparently did!

                    My problem is he thinks him and Brook are like Mayweather and Pacquiao. He is trying to copy what Mayweather did with pacquiao but he's not as smart as Mayweather to carry it off. He's doing it in plain sight of everyone. He's openly saying he doesn't want to fight him, then he's saying he does, then he picks his resume apart which he has a point with then he's saying the fight can generate more if we wait. He's just too honest and too dumb. That's why he's getting pelters.

                      Making these fight's isn't as easy as you think. Thurman says he will go to the UK but what we hear is that he doesn't want to leave the US. Rios is a bit daft as he would win hands down don't need a rematch clause. Whatever you say Khan is ducking and has been well before any of you knew who Kell Brook was, he always wanted the fight. He was told het a world title and we will fight, then what? ****'s himself. Khan isn't a welterweight. Hearn has some explaining to do but I wouldn't put the blame on Brook I genuinely believe he will fight anyone. And Porter is better than ANYONE khan has beaten.
