If Khan becomes WBC champion, how much bargaining power will Brook actually have?

[SalimShady1212]

So far Team Brook's reason for 60-40 in Khan's favour has been that Kell brings the world title but if Khan wins his own world title and also the most prestigious one at that, how much of the split can Kell actually demand? Yes Khan needs to Kell to sell out Wembley and make this fight as it takes two to tango but if they both have a belt and its a unification, I can only imagine the split Khan would demand.

Disclaimer: of course there are a lot of what if's and variables as DG could well beat him; I rate Danny highly however as long as Khan sticks to a game plan he should win.

Brook will probably accept the 90/10 if Khan has a WBC title

Well a group of casuals mentioned to me today that if Khan does not fight Brook then he should fight Anthony Crolla...lol

On reflection Britain seems to have the dumbest casuals around mostly soccer fans who dont know the difference between Lightweight and welterweight they were just desperate to see Khan "Murdered by a rival British fighter".

The scary thing is given the hype generated by the British Tabloids when Khan fought Mcloskey....I think these dumb ass casuals would actually pay for Khan Vs Crolla ,or Khan Vs Ricky Burns, or Khan Vs Derry Mathews.

So I am not sure how much bargaining power Kell has here...! Khan could find other ways to milk his Large Hate Base amongst the Casuals...!

They both have exactly the same amount of bargaining power. If I understand things correctly Brook vs. Khan is a very big money fight in England. In order for the fight to take place and the two boxers to make all that money both boxers must agree to terms and sign the contracts. If Khan says no then there is no fight and neither man makes a dime. If Brook says no then there is no fight and neither man makes a dime. They both need the other to agree to terms or they both lose a lot of money. It's in both of their best interest that the fight takes place. Therefore neither man has more bargaining power than the other. They will both make good money fighting other boxers if they never fight each other. I don't think either man has a potential opponent that will make them as much money as fighting each other would make the both of them. They need each other to make maximum money.

Khan is the bigger name and Khan has alternatives, the ball is firmly in Khan's court.

Khan isn't setting foot anywhere near Brook anyway, so this speculation is a waste of time.

He is begging for less than half now, so if Khan becomes WBC champ I think we might have to rephrase the question: Will Brook have ANY bargaining power?

I've seen Tweets of ppl saying Mayweather having 0 chance against Anthony Joshua, so what you said isn't so bad.

Why would he accept that?

[fanofslug]

I think Khan would be content with the WBC and wouldn't bother with unification, but he doesn't intend to fight Brook, not any time soon. I kind of feel sorry for Brook having to live under Khan's shadow. He's undefeated and fights much better (if you've ever seen his fights and don't believe what people tell you!), he just needs to stop chasing Khan and start filling his resume with solid fighters before it's too late.
