Comments Thread For: Hearn: Khan's Financial Demand For Brook Was Borderline Insult

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Sport tried his best to finalize a May pay-per-view fight between IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook (36-1, 25 KOs) and his domestic rival Amir Khan (31-4, 19 KOs). Discussions to make the fight have crumbled after Khan and his team demanded a split of 70-30 in their favor. Hearn and Brook believe an even split of 50-50 is fair.

Bigger name yes but how many actual paying fans does Khan bring to the table as it seems most people who know of him hate him.

Not really. Khan needs this fight more than brook does. Brook is currently the IBF champion and because of that he can make any unification fight or fight a big name fighter. Khan has gone downhill since leaving roach and has nothing right now. 50/50 seems right to me

Brook as champ for a mandatory would get 75/25 Spence is mandatory but not a huge U.K. Fight although Spence is the future king. So a huge U.K. Fight brook khan brook champ and khan wants 70% he came up in Floyd delusional era only Floyd somehow got these things

[bronx7]

What is fair? Both big in U.K. So champ being fair generous offers 50/50 khan wants 70. Khan brings middle eastern ****** ppv so being extra generous 45 brook 55 khan any more you are bending over letting khan abuse you as belt holder move to jm and take one of those belts rather than let khan and toothless father abuse you

It's not only about the split, Khan also wants the fight to be held by the end of this year. So it doesn't even make sense to talk about the fight this early. That's why Hearn/Brook need to focus on what they do in the interim.

Yet another excuse from Khan.
