We know Brook has pulled out of many fights after they've been made. This is documented several times - he pulled out of two fights with Alexander and one fight with Chaves, after contracts were signed, ultimately never to face those opponents. He also pulled out of negotiations with Rios and Bradley and has openly stated that he wouldn't want to fight Thurman immediately.
Khan's time has been wasted before with Mayweather on many occasions as well as most recently with Pacquiao, both of whom have said they'd fight Khan, keep Khan waiting for their decisions, only to choose a different opponent in the end. [Note: Some casual fans who don't know much about the sport actually try to blame Khan for trying to make fights with both Floyd and Manny but that's another story, and perhaps a testament to how low the IQ of many casual boxing fans has fallen in recent times].
Is it almost a foregone conclusion that if Khan vs Brook enters negotiations, Brook is virtually guaranteed to pull out of the fight either at the negotiation stage or at some point during the build up? He has a firm track record of doing so in the past when he steps up his level of opposition so can we safely say he'll do it yet again?
