Even Kell brook said he's fining it hard to do 147 and will move up soon. But he'll stick to 147 for good fights. That's what Khan is saying that he CAN do 147 for the big fights. Stop criticising with out a reason.

He is getting into his 30's so he cant as easily cut weight as he used to when he could make 135. Also its not like your in a position to know the difficulty in cutting weight in fact i imagine youre probably gaining more weight.

There's too many 'fighters' who blame the weight Khan for one did it after both of his knockout losses then moved to welter and never made an impact.If he feels welterweight is his weight then do it but don't use it as another excuse as there's plenty of super welterweights waiting there for him!

We know already that when he's iced by Canelo what he will say...just weight wait weight!

I take it this is the plan, get a payday while getting blasted and then blame it on the weight, drop back down to 147 while fighting a few more tuneups, by then brook will have moved up himself, and he'll have avoided losing to his nemesis.

Khan will get knocked out back down to 147
