Excuse #13848393 by Khan,

If Brook gets 30%, it will be his biggest payday to date.

If Khan gets 50%, it will not be his biggest payday to date.

Those are the facts. Brooktards don't like #facts

Except that 50-50 would be his biggest payday.

Brook is the champ and atleast has beat porter, he is the a side. He also didnt get ktfo in his last fight, khan is trying to act like some huge star when he really isnt.

This is laughable. Considering the fight is to take place in the UK where I doubt Khan is a bigger draw.

Khan is without a doubt the bigger name in the UK. Way more known the casual fan. He's been a big name here since 2004. When is the last time Brook has ever been on any big shows here in the UK? Amir is regularly on big shows around the world. Brook just isn't that sort of person. He's well respected in Boxing circles but casuals don't really know him that well.

Was the ggg fight not a huge fight in UK for brook or am i just imagining things?

It was but thats due to:

- Boxing in the UK in general being on a high. Remember Khan was selling out places when Boxing in the UK was in the gutter (Post ITV).
- Matchroom heavily investing in that show. Hearn said a while back he doesn't really make anything off Brook. That was before the GGG fight.
- He was fighting GGG, who is a known name and P4P up there at number 1.
- It was a freakshow fight, which attracts people. One off deal.

Here is Eddie Hearn saying Khan is a bigger name

Better known doesn't mean he's a bigger name. As in draws more. My argument was about who draws more in the UK.

Whats sadder? Brook begging Khan for a payday or him ducking Spence?

LOL! Good question.
Let's let one of his disciples come up with a spin!!
It should be interesting what ever the spin is.

Yeah, it's true Khan is the bigger name in the UK. His glass chin is notorious. So many people will be tuning in to see his whiskers get tickled.
