        So 3 fights ago he made less than a millon dollars.

        Couldn't give a crap if he's rich or not. But he cannot take investments and sponsorships to a purse negotiation table

          What about Khan supposedly being hard to outbox?

            You're missing the point completely lmao. Khan could never fight Brook and live a happy and rich life easily. However Brook needs this fight and the purse more than Khan. Who gains nothing but even more money than he has and bragging rights. I feel brook wins but Khan has all the cards in his hands. End of.

              Exactly. So why does he have such a high opinion of himself? The guys a fool who used to be relevant.

                Khan's made some ****** decisions in the last few years. He should have fought Alexander when he had the IBF title. We saw what happened when they fought.

                  No he can't. Khan became a laughing stock when he was begging for a fight he couldn't get.

                  If he can get any fight he wants, he wouldn't be wasting his time with Brook. But he's cashed out already - it's slim pickings now.

                    Khan needs to pull it together he shouldn't be turning back on his word with the Kell Brook fight, 50/50 is the right percentages.

                      Emm...he isn't begging Brook for a fight, Brook is the one begging for a fight with Khan, Khan isn't obligated to fighting Brook. He can fight anyone he wants, Brook can't with his belt around his waist. The one person trying to cash out here is Brook, if not he would dismiss Khan, fight his mandatory and look to fight the Garcia vThurman winner, am not going to excuse Brook pathetic resume at 147, since he has been fighting at 147 where is the Maidana, Alexander, Bradley, Garcia, Vargas, Thurman, Spence, Matthyse, Pederson etc just to name a few on his resume? None apart from Porter... that is truly slim pickings.
