      I think at 147 Brook would be handicapped to the point where Khan might be able to do it. Brook showed he couldn't last more than 6 rounds without gassing 18 months ago, and will fade even faster now.

      154 different story.
      He gassed because he faced an extremely resilient opponent who came forward and walked through fire to break him down, along with his eye socket.

      Against Khan, I don't see making 147 being a problem for him on fight night.

      Now a rematch against Spence on the other hand, Brook should probably try to get that at 154.

            That would be a nice fight - I'd give Spence the edge still, but would expect Brook to go 12 this time (154). I just don't think Brook can beat anyone top 10 at 147 any more, maybe even top 20, which gives Khan a shot.

              That seems like a horrible style matchup for Rios. I'd rather see Rios vs Alvarado III or Rios vs Ortiz than any other fight for Rios. Obviously not likely those fights are makeable now doe.
