    It doesn’t matter which fight is easier, the brook fight was there to take for years... it’s not like he’s been choosing between them for the last 7 years lol
    Khan clearly didn't want the Brook fight. Why would any fighter make the fight they never wanted? It's not even the question of money like most negotiations have had issues with in this case. Simply, Khan didn't want the fight. End of story. No need to cite this as if it's the best counter for the issue at hand.

      Can you imagine him saying the Crawford fight can't happen because he's on the other side of the street?
      Can you imagine him not being able to fight Joshua if he's Wilder?
      Can you imagine Khan not fighting Brook when they practically live in the same house?

      Khan isn't different than any other fighter. In this case Khan would rather get beat by a more talented American than his less talented fellow countryman.

        He is the same constantly bragging and overrating himself Khan he always has been. Every day it's 5 more Khan quotes telling us he is on a higher level than Crawford and has defeated better fighters. Judging by his last fight Khan has seen better days and is in for a beating and another KO loss.

            Khan claims he would beat Brook very easily but still he has refused to fight Brook for all these years in spite of Brook begging him for a fight and his country badly wanting that fight.

              Charlo says the same thing about beating GGG easily,
              yet he never made a single move to make the fight happen.
              He's backed by powerful Haymon, SHO/Fox, nothing,
              not a single effort to make it happen.
              Same thing. He just pretends he wants it.
              Wilder says he can beat Joshua easily, yet he's still not
              content with the lucrative offers that have been made.
              Same thing.
              Again, Khan's case was not even about the money.
              It's there, it's one of the biggest fights that could have been made in the UK.
              Bottom line, he never wanted it.

                What do you mean WE would want? You know damn well
                these fighters don't give a flying t****ze what YOU and I want.
                Why would you add WE in the discussion?
                Since when did these fighters made fights because the fans wanted it?
                Fights happen because BOTH FIGHTERS WANT IT.
                Khan didn't want the Brook fight.
                It doesn’t matter which fight is easier, the brook fight was there to take for years... it’s not like he’s been choosing between them for the last 7 years lol
                So you pop in here call names and you can't even provide
                an opinion on a common question that is basic in these boards.
                Which is the easier fight for Khan, Crawford or Brook?
                And why is it not relevant?
                Fighters accept/reject fights for various reasons; too risky,
                want huge paycheck, not ready for it, etc., etc.,

                So what do you think is the reason why the Brook/Khan fight is not happening other than Khan want none of it?
                Make your case further. I'm all ears.

                  You don't have to imagine it.
                  It's happening already.
                  Another dumb question.

                    Is this a damn big misunderstanding?!?? Because i hate Khan and you’re making it sound like I’m supporting him.

                    Was that sarcasm in the first page when you said he wouldn’t be the reason for a fight to be stopped?! Coz u’re all over the place right now lol

                      Next time try to understand the context before hitting that dumb send button.
                      Again, fighters don't make fights they don't want.
                      Simple as that, so stop asking why the Brook fight didn't happen.
                      Khan is the hindrance because he never wanted it in the first place.

                      Thread is about fighters making fights THEY WANT happen,
                      assuming the other fighter want it too.
                      You have to show where he's the hindrance on those types of fights
                      and made excuses about network affiliations and all those dumb nonsense.
