If Brook was so confident he would have taken the money, beaten Khan and raised his profile massively and earned buckets more in the rematch, kick-starting a lucrative career as a marquee name in the sport.
But he's obviously not that confident, which is clear to see from his pathetic competition "mandatories doe"
I don't see him beating Khan if Khan plays it smart either, Khan is too fast and Brook is too slow, he hasn't faced anyone near to Khan's level.
It'll be the typical anticlimactic fight where dreams and hopes are shattered.

By offering Amir a 60/40 split, they've already conceded that Amir is the A side. Why can't Kelly just take the 2.5 and fight him?

Brook better starts to fight someone with a name instead of his opponents. His only great opponent on his resume is Shawn Porter. He turned down the 2.5 million to fight for thousands.
Don't think he will ever fight for a 2.5 million if he continues this route.

He'd get a guaranteed $5m plus additional money from the PPV buys from being broadcast on Sky Sports to a colossal number of existing subscribers. Hearn estimated Khan would make in excess of $10m.

Don't gloss over the fact that Kell would also be getting the most money he's ever earned, or will ever earn, for a fight. He should have swallowed his pride, taken the 2.5, and fought Khan. Where is he now? Oh, that's right. He's fighting Bizier. That's some exposure, bwhahaha.
Hopefully the fans won't leave during this fight, like they did when he fought Gavin.Last edited by Mike Rotch; 02-29-2016, 10:33 PM.
