Comments Thread For: Hearn: Only Khan Can Prevent Brook vs. Spence From Being Made

[NaijaD]

Eddie Hearn out here sounding like Princess Leia, "Help us Amir Khan...you're our only hope!"

Looool that was funny, I love me some Star Wars but honestly Hearn is making Brook look abit weak by talking about Khan when the Spence fight is so close.

Forget Khan and his fine china, go handle Spence and remind the guys at 147 that you're back to take care of business.

It never ends with Hearn lol just make the Spence fight and let Brook take his beating like a man. They've already built in the "drained" excuse. This has went beyond the point of embarrassing for Brook.

Fingers crossed that we don't see Brook vacate for some "contractual" reason. So many of his fights have fallen through in the 11th hour.

If Brook fights Khan and thereby vacating the IBF, who would Spence has left as a contender with Horn already scheduled to fight?

[AdonisCreed]

Brook you should have just took the fight with Amir Khan if that's a fight you truly want sometimes you have to put your pride to the side. Don't cry about it if you didn't like his offer or demands. It is what it is. Khan ain't losing no sleep if the fight never happens.

So it looks like we're getting Brook vs Spence. If so, this will be, potentially, the best match up of the year.

Hearn begged for another extension to get Khan for the fight.

And got it.

[LacedUp]

Scared or not, the guy is looking for every opportunity to avoid this fight, and waiting until the very last possible second to sign on. Come on man, even you can see that.

That's not entirely true though is it? He wanted the Khan fight. Didnt get it. His whole management team is publicly begging him to go to 154.

And what has he chosen to do? Stay at 147 to fight Spence. So actually, you're entirely incorrect.

He's losing plenty if it does! and ole glass jaw knows it 70% call against a champion is f....this i'm off! Can't wait to see who King Cons next defenceless fatboy slim victim is.

Actually I'm entirely correct. What they're saying is "Spence is next, unless Amir Khan has a sudden change of heart."

And like I stated, they waited until 2 days before the purse bid to even start negotiating with Spence, and has asked for an extension still hoping Khan comes around...

If he does fight Spence, and that's a big IF, the fight won't be announced until Monday, which is exactly 1 day before his extension is up.

Belts would have been a non-factor in this case because Brook wouldn't have had a belt, had Khan agreed to fight him. 70% against a champion is not factually correct.
