Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Only Plans 3 To 4 More Fights - Kell Brook Ruled Out

[- Ram Raid -]

Canelo should release a statement that Khan needs to step up and fight Brook.

I think Hunter will end up regretting his post fight outburst when he looks back on it. It was somewhat undignified trying to paint it as a victory of sorts for his fighter by attacking Canelo's willingness to fight his main rival.

Maybe he was angry at Canelo and his team for putting him in a position of training his fighter for a bout he knew he'd get hurt in but it is prizefighting after all, and both himself and Khan has been well compensated.

Khan will protect his ego by buying into himself as 'setting the tone' that other boxers should follow but like you say, that's far from being the case. If he had actually set a tone then Canelo would be looking to fight Kovalev before coming back down to middleweight and stating that he'll never fight GGG because he doesn't like the cut of his jib!

whats up with these UK fighters??

Hatton did this against Witter

Calzaghe did it against Froch

Froch did it against DeGale

yeah, thanks to Hatton now everybody think that not liking a mfer is a good reason NOT to fight him....I always thought that was a PERFECT reason to fight a mfer

If the only options for Danny Garcia are Garcia-Khan II or Garcia-Brook, Garcia is flying to London and taking on Kell Brook (Sky Box Office/Showtime).

Why in the heck would Danny Garcia be excited to fight the guy he's already stopped, who just got KTFO, and hasn't looked good since getting slept the first time (not to mention Khan's asking price for the mandatory challenge won't be light)?

Garcia himself has said that there's no way he's going to the UK.

Fcj khan.....here we go again....we all want to see this fight....he just don't like Brook and don't want to risk losing to him

[aAgger]

Same reason May gave for not fighting Khan. May just don't like Khan and don't want to give him the payday. And now Khan saying the same thing about Brook, that he just don't like him and don't want to give him the payday. It's not about winning or losing, but more of a personal grudge where the richer fighter doesn't want the guy he dislikes to get a payday.

[ussy]

No ****. It should be, "I dont like him and i want to beat him." He had guts to fight Canelo but only because he's scared ****less of losing to Brook.

That's basically it, don't think he can mentally handle losing to a domestic rival which would be a super fight in the Uk as well. If kell was any other nationality he would've fought him by now.

I don't blame Hunter, I liked his outburst. Khan took the fight because it was career money. Forget his bs about Brook being worth more, this was most money Khan would ever make in a single fight for his career. Those were his reasons for the fight.

Canelo on the other took this fight b/c he's a bully who's scared to fight guys his own size. He literally almost killed Khan with a single shot, b/c he was so much bigger. He was too big for Cotto to do anything against. Hunter basically called him out on being a bully, and I'm glad for that.

AMIR KHAN has promised his mum he will only fight four more times. But he has also told Kell Brook to forget it if he thinks one of them will be against him. Khan, 29, arrives back in the UK this morning after his brutal sixth-round knockout by WBC middleweight champion Saul Alvarez.

People will only watch con fights now just to see how he will get knocked out

Really? Are you insinuating Canelo was bullying the lineal MW champ in Cotto? With his size?

The champ?

Lineal champ?

Not even at 160?

Someone's a Cotto fan. :P


And Virgil was fine with GGG going up 8 pounds for his fighter Ward just like Khan did for Canelo...get over it...he had a nervous breakdown on live TV and it was both hilarious and undignified. Khan was a bad matchup, there's no denying it...But outside of that his recent opposition has been great and fights the fans wanted.

[SnakeVen0m]

As I said earlier today. It would absolutely kill Khan if he got KO'd by Brook in the UK. It's obvious why he doesn't want to fight him but his fans will spew delusional reasons why Brook doesn't deserve a payday but turn around and support a fight against the world renown Julio Diaz, or the 'non-pedophile' Carlos Molina. smdh
