Comments Thread For: Hearn is Concerned Rehydration Clause Can Derail Khan-Brook

[FlatLine]

Why didn't Khan want it in the past? No it isn't the same, IBF rules are 10% of the division weight, which means 14.7 lbs not 10.

Nope, Brook weighed in at 156.9 in the second day weigh in which is 9.9 lbs rehydrated. He did that just last year for the Spence fight. Now all of a sudden he's turning all diva about it. Seems like he's trying to duck the fight tbh.

I'm telling you the IBF rules, the rules are 10% of the division weight not 10lbs. Doesn't matter what Brook did last year, Khan fought Canelo at 155, does that mean Khan should fight Brook at that weight?

Lol.. Brook is obviously trying to get a weight advantage there's no two ways about it. Khan is just trying to make as fair a fight as possible (which is why rehydration clauses exist in the first place). We all know what Brook's up to, he's either trying to duck the fight or get a significant weight advantage. Or should we just call this quit number 3, that's the real question. Where there's smoke, there's fire!

They are going to make a lot of money and khan is still scared. He will not get in there with Brook. No way

[Sickmerch1990]

Khant won't fight him under any circumstances he will demand brook to wear 16oz gloves next

[FLEX U.K]

Brook is really disappointing me recently, he should have carried on the momentum @ 154 and fought his way into position to fight Hurd. He's obsessed with the Khan fight and tbh it's way passed it sell by date.

Exactly the point. Don't care all that much for this fight at this point. Khan straight ducked Brook for years ... why stop now[/QUOTE

Khan ducked Brook for year? Who knows, but at Least Khan was facing top fighters while Brook was busy fighting Euro bums for his whole career.

Brook's best win in his whole career is Porter. Khan's has way more quality wins over top fighters and past champions. Brook had a chance to face quality names but a way found a way not to make those fights happen. He chose money to fight GGG instead of being a unified champ if he would have fought Vargas. Came up with all these excuses about weight when he was forced to fight Spence. Talked a good game about being at 154 calling out top fighters only to fight bums and chase Khan back to 147.

Dude I can't even argue with that . That Porter win looks a lot more solid now considering what Porters accomplished since. But still, Brooks opposition should've been and should be a lot better. Good point dude.

Why would khan choose to disadvantage himself massively in a prize fight?

Brook will be waaaay bigger, and if he can't make 147 then why not do something crazy.... like get on with your career at lmw?



What's becoming apparent is the sheer desperation in Brooks career where his begging of khan has degenerated to a sense of entitlement to have the advantage even as the desperate one.

Both are deluded.
