Comments Thread For: Khan, Hearn Meet To Discuss Kell Brook Clash in 2016

[Caught Square]

That Dubai Pacquiao fight is nonsense. Them big fights in Dubai are pure fantasy and never materialise. I'm tired of hearing about these fights being rumoured for Dubai.

This article is just some crap UAE pro-Khan sports rag.

Usual Ramamdama ding dong BS Khan's army of mini cab drivers and goat shepherd's.

Khan should have signed with Golden Boy instead of Haymon. He at least could have fought Oscars and Bob's talent instead of nobodies.

Exactly this. Anytime Dubai gets brought up a possible venue it never ever happens. I'm convinced it's more of a bargaining manoeuvre than anything else when 'news' about it goes public.

Someone should ask Eddie Hearn via twitter if any of what Khan said is true, Cugan of IFL TV should ask him also. If it is true then at least there's progression for the domestic clash.

Normally I would agree, but I think this has a chance of happening because Manny and Khan are not the same guys anymore. Both in terms of quality as fighters and drawing power, before that was a fight that had to be in the US. Now, it's fine being on TV here, Dubai will pay more money than what HBO or Showtime offer for that fight, plus whatever casino's offer.

I see what you mean but i'm still skeptical of these Dubai rumours until proven otherwise. Once there's a marquee event in Dubai then it would be more convincing. It doesn't have to be a massive fight just a decent world title fight between known fighters at least. I think there were rumours of Donaire-Quigg in Dubai that's a good start

He wanted to fight Thurman and Cotto in 2015. Instead we got..... Algieri

Brook wanted Hurman, Marquez and Rios. Instead we got Gavin and Dan now here come the excuses to explain the fight. Mandatory doe fine. Oh he just got stabbed doe. No one said you have to fight so soon, wait a couple of months and fight a big name instead of an overweight jr WW.

It was on a popular British magazine, boxing monthly I think. They have a different boxer each issue, it's hardly pro Khan.
