      I wonder if khan makes a significant higher amount than brook
      Haven't been able to find anything reliable, tbh (one site has Brook's net worth listed at ~$18m, with no information to support the claim), but Brook's last three fights have been pretty big events in the UK, he's been fighting for Matchroom Sport since 2011 (headlining his own shows for the most part during his run), and his last fight was on Sky Box Office (PPV).

      In terms of "UK TV money", what broadcaster are you actually talking about? Sky Sports hasn't carried his fights and, with Khan basically fighting exclusively in the US since 2010, every fight shown has been at 3am-4am, London time; doubt that Khan's been drawing the eyeballs for those fights.

        Kell Brook's biggest problem right here...



        This dude doesn't need money.

        Brook and Hearn have put themselves in a poor position by being so outspoken about the fact that Kell will KO him. Khan can now turn around and say, "ok if it's so easy take the £2.5 million, you are making 4 times your biggest pay day, plus you are going to win the fight anyway, right? So whats the problem?"

        The thing with Khan when he was trying to get Mayweather and Pacquiao, he was willing to take short money, he just wanted to get them in the ring, it wasn't about the money it was about legacy and proving himself against the best. The money was just a bonus.

        Brook has to look at it in a similar way, he has to put his ego to the side and just get Khan in the ring. First off he needs the money, and even though Khan ain't the best or anything like that, it will catapult Brook's career to another level especially in the UK if he wins. If he doesn't at least he will have 7 figures in his bank account.

          How is this unfair?

          King makes a great point: Don't look at what I'm making. Ppl keep yapping "where else will Khan make this much $", well, where will Kell? I doubt he even made more than $500 K for Dan and Gavin. He simply isn't making that Amir Khan $.


          Kell also said its not about money for me on video where he accepted Khan's winner takes all offer.
