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

[bronx7]

Unless he gets big name who makes money sorry Spence brook has to move up to jm good fighters there no draws. Fight winner of the Liam's for jm belt big fight in U.K. Spence big risk low reward . Khan out pricing. Drop belt go after Thurman Garcia winner? I don't know no easy answer

Amir got $6million for the canelo fight according to golden boys own expert in the pbc court case hahaha.... ****y "daddys boy" hearn needs to stop crying and just suck it up.....

And? Canelo was the draw in that fight and it was in a completely different market. Pretty much irrelevant.

Lara vs. Brook! Make it happen!

Yet another excuse from Khan.

Brook had to deal with his mandatory sooner than later. Khan won't be available for Kell till last quarter of 2017. The split is immaterial at this point.

Brook and Hearn think that Brook deserves more for be the champion but if this fight gets made, Brook won't be the champion. If Brook decides to skip his fight with Spence, then he will be stripped by the IBF. Spence had made it clear he is not going to take any step aside money.Brook talks as if he's this world known fighter, I'm sure Spence's name is bigger than Brooks in the US. Brook got smashed by GGG and beat 1 legit fighter and thinks he deserves big fights after that. If that's the case Wade should be demanding big fights as well after the GGG fight. Wade took the fight while on house arrest. Khan don't need Brook. Khan can get his tune up fight and then take on the Garcia/Thurman winner as he's the WBC mandatory. Brook can fight Spence or move up and get smashed by the Charlos,Andrade,Lara . But more than likely will end up fighting for some European title against some weak fighter like Liam Smith. Brook had the opportunity to unify against Vargas but took the payday against GGG.

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.

Totally agree. Most brits can't stand him, including me. Brook should move on and leave Khan with nowhere to go.

both of these guys are so lame

khan has a deep resume but lost his biggest fights/clearly reached his limits years ago and we're just supposed to pretend it never happened.

brook is the same age and basically doesn't have a resume. His circus loss to GGG was his big moment. Before that we were just supposed to take his promoters word that he's the best WW in the world.

Who cares..

The thing that annoys me, as a fan of neither, is the way Eddie Hearn keeps harping on about Kell Brook being the champion in the fight. We all know Kell is holding the belt hostage solely for leverage in negotiations. Soon as this fight is over they will vacate the belt with no intentions of fighting Errol Spence, Jr.!

Khan's fans are from india and pakistan.

How much money do they bring to the table?

Here's a hint... 0

Never in a million years will Indians support/watch him.. For obvious reasons ofcourse..

[BoxingFan85]

Brook better move on & fight Spence.. Though its a pretty tough fight I believe Brook can beat him while he is still green..
