Kell Brook vs Amir Khan - Breakdown of assets

[talz]

After he gets knocked out, I believe he should be a 4-1 underdog. As I said, he does everything worse than Brook plus he's left his prime some time ago.

The guy struggled with Chris Algieri and Julio Diaz in recent times ffs. It's like you guys choose to forget certain things.

You say he does everything worse than Brook yet he's fought 35 bums, anybody can look amazing against them. When he finally stepped up he was hugging all night and barely nicked a decision.... You forgetting how kell was running for his life vs Carson jones ffs? Diaz and Algieri are way better than Jones,Diaz drew with Porter not that long ago.

Your opinion means nothing to me as there's no substance to a biased argument but answer me this, if Khan wins will he win you over?

i think khan would have a decent chance against brook because of the range brook fights at. khan is very effective within his one dimension

Running for his life? Did you even watch the fight?

Diaz and Algieri would be easy work for Brook on the same night, let alone different ones.

No substance? I've just given you substance, that he struggled with two absolute cherrypicks.

He struggles with Algieri, yet would be favourite against Brook? Get real.

If he fights Brook, he will 'win' me back. Not before, no matter what he does. Because he has been on one shameful run from Brook.

If he beats Canelo, I will be highly impressed - Naturally.

Brook's judge of distance is so superior to Khan's that it's not even funny. Brook would take a step back and give him a solid brownie straight on the chin. lights out. fight over.

4-1 underdog?

And in what way is Khan the challenger for the IBF 147lb belt?

You do realise he is currently challenging for the lineal MW championship of the world right?

At the current time, both titles mean just as much. Khan would be paid similar amounts for each fight too

I agree with everything except Khan having more heart. Brook has never shown a lack of heart. Khan coming back from knock downs and knock outs is admirable but it is what a good fighter is supposed to do. Brook just doesn't get knocked down and knocked out. Brook hits much harder and has a much better chin. When you combine that with Brook's great jab, better balance, better footwork, better timing, better ring IQ, and better shot selection a KO win for Brook seems obvious to me.

We can all nitpick at average performances, I can name Carson Jones naturally and getting rocked by featherfisted Senchenko. Khan's best wins poop all over Brook's good win, yes all 1 of them. I rate Brook but I refuse to make him favourite until I've seen him convincingly beat just one elite fighter, hopefully this summer.

If Khan wins his next fight, there is noway he will "only" (use that term loosely) take a 8 mill purse, which is what is currently reported. Khan will easily become the biggest name in the sport and the most financially viable.

he wouldn't be settling for Brook after that.
