Comments Thread For: Hearn: If We Don't Get Khan-Brook, We Shouldn't Forgive Them

[Armchairhero]

This thread is about Khan vs brook.

Is khan avoiding brook or is brook avoiding khan?

I don’t think it will happen until Kahn has zero options left, I don’t think anyone cares that much to be honest

You are right most don't really care. I love seeing Khan getting knocked silly though, so I would definitely watch it.

Khan is dead on his feet, in his last fight against a hand picked nobody , a light fisted loser Khan was down and twice saved by the bell.Talk of his very next fight being a PPV....against anyone! ...is just ridiculous .....only a taxi driver would fall for such nonsense. The Brook /Khan fight passed it's sell by date years ago....move on Hearn !

And Brook should be fighting Hurd tonight if he has anything left not waiting around for a shot fighter like Amir Khan.

Kell Brook has done everything possible to make this fight. I'm sure the British fans know that. I hope.

I

Khan's resume -
Barrera
Kotelnik
Maidana
Judah
Malignaggi
Alexander
Canelo

Brooks resume -
Porter
Spence
GGG

Erm

Bundu???

Those Khan wins are from a long time ago though.

Also we shouldn't really count losses as resume otherwise David Jaco would be the greatest Heavyweight ever

LOL Eddie is sick of their collective **** it seems

I would guess that Khan is the main roadblock and that Hearn is still just trying to be diplomatic, until/if it falls through.

True, i dont like it when domestic rival never get it on. I still criticise Hatton for ducking Witter even up till now.

According to Hearn Khan wants a rehydration clause put in for the fight, Brook doesn't want to give into that. Hearn is leaning towards supporting Khan in that aspect. He thinks Brook as done it before (IBF rule) and should be able to do it again for the sort of money he would be earning. Brook doesn't think he needs to since the fight isn't about any belts. Hearn i think was kinda supporting Khan's stance, even using the Canelo KO as excuse why Khan wanted the clause in the contract.

"There have been some sort of minor discussions between myself and Amir about Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter. Terence Crawford would like a fight with Amir Khan as well." -Eddie Hearn

I'm sure Khan vs. Brook has some nostalgia, but British Boxing fans know the sport well, so I'm sure if Hearn could bring Crawford vs. Khan to the UK, they would be just as pleased! The question is, can Hearn bring that fight to the UK, and is it more lucrative than Crawford vs. Khan in Madison Square Garden?

Hearn knows his window to make this fight is rapidly closing ( if not already closed ) . I think he signed Khan with the expectation that he'd be able to make the fight and get some nice Domestic coin out of it .
Unfortunately ( for Hearn and the Brits ) I think this rivalry goes the same route the Victor Ortiz/ Brandon Rios one did .
Woulda Coulda Shoulda .
