He can't name anyone other than Alvarez)", he then goes on to say "my name is big in the Vegas lights... blah blah blah".... This idiot actually thinks losing to Alvarez is as good as a win... as long as you headline in Vegas, you can automatically pick and choose opponents? Even if you lose every time you actually step up and box someone a) who is good, b) who has more than 10 ko's and c) who is a similar size to yourself.
    Everyone in the UK and every boxing fan wants this fight... but Khan doesn't because he thinks he is too good? C'mon, get out of here with that rubbish... Khan is just as unproven as Kell... all of his wins are pretty poor and he has lost every time he has boxed a legit challenge.
    Excellent post

      Just admit Brook is a huge joke in boxing. Khan may be a joke but Brook is the bigger joke. Mind-boggling that you people can't see that.
      Kell Brook is definitely the bigger joke. One of the biggest jokes in boxing today.

        Are people really still hyped for a Brook/Khan fight? I'd be intrigued by it, but thats all. I don't think its a major elite blockbuster fight anymore

        We've seen Khan knocked out 3 times now. Theres only so many times you can see it before it gets a bit old. Its not a certainty that Brook would do that, but it was part of the intrigue of a Khan fight that he can be floored at any time.

        I find the Canelo fight interesting actually. Surely the best business decision would be to face Brook, beat him, the set up a Canelo match later on if need be. Its far more likely that Khan would have beaten Brook, and he'd get two massive paydays. After being Ko'd by Canelo, he'd still have his welterweight title and legitimate credentials at the weight that he lacks now. Perhaps Khan and team don't share the same faith I have in Amir's chances against Brook

          It's just disgusting and people actually defend this rubbish.

          Khan said right after Brook beat Porter that, "He has earned the right to be in the ring with Amir Khan." (delusion at its finest) That was in 2014.

          Brooks opponents haven't gotten even slightly better now since that time so what's changed in those 2 years?

          Wants no part of the man.

            Have you heard his post-Canelo diatribe on why he thinks he is still elite? This guy is a narcissist. It will never get old watching this idiot get knocked the fcuk out.

              Just because Brook is holding his unremarkable career up for Khan does not oblige khan to fight him, harsh but true.

                  Don't even know why people are so sensitive in what Khan or any of these fighters say on Youtube. I never watch these videos. I don't really care. What I really care about are seeing top fighters fighting top fighters. Not Brook vs Khan just because I don't like what Khan said in a video. Man that's shallow. We don't have nine lives to live and fans should never tolerate seeing these top fighters fighting low level opponents.

                      Brook should have wisened up long ago and seeked other big fights. If he'd done that and ignored Khan, Khan would be the one running after him.

                      He can still do that though.
