We all want to see great fights and the best fighting each other, khan has delivered us a fight to look forward to, Brook hasn't. I'd love to see brook vs khan but would be just as excited watching brook vs garcia/thurman or Bradley. I'll give brook the benefit of the doubt now but after his next fight he must step up cause at the moment it seems like unless his fighting khan his happy to sit on his belt taking on easy mandarory defence with little risk. I've got a feeling he will try to get a shot and drained cotto over for a big name/payday which will pull the wool over the casual fans eyes but I would be less than impressed.

Just to add khan is a lot better than people give him credit for he just lacks intelligence in the ring. He was a novice when he got stopped by prescot, I thought he beat peterson, the ref was terrible and so biased and he was completely outboxing garcia untill again he showed a lack of intelligence and got caught by a shot thrown in blind hope.

You think Brooks going to win because he hits harder than Khan? oh dear. I think its a good fight but Khan has to be the favourite. Amir Khans not world class? oh dear.

Avoiding Brook like the plague. Are you kidding ?? Hes treating Brook like an irritant and taking on a globally appealing fight with one of the most pound for pound dangerous boxers in the game....these two guys will create a spectacle. No bad mouthing, healthy respect for each other and a knowledge that a win for either cements them in the boxing hall of fame....if Khan loses he can still fight Brook...he aint going anywhere anytime soon.

Khan is world class and will give Alverez and anyone else problems with Khan has fought better fighters than kell Brook but surely the Khan v Brook has to happen. Brooks Strength vs Khans Speed. i think Khan would be a nightmare for Mayweather because off hes hand speed. sadly don't think it will happen.

He's so Ill disciplined in the ring he be boxed to pieces. He's spend all night trying to cut off the ring, being reset every time.

Listen mate, I have boxed for well over 20 years, ten being in the Army. And becuase of Khans lack of punch resistance YES I do think becuase Brook has heavier hands than Khan he will win. No one is questioning Khans boxing ability and speed, but as has proven on numerous occasions when he gets tagged his legs turn to Jelly, and brook has very heavey hands and will damage Khan the minute he has the trademark lack of concentration. And to that the fact that Khan simply doesnt have the punch power to trouble brook and the fight will IMO only go one way stoppage for Brook in the middle to late rounds. As for Brook not getting any big name fights, Why do you think that is ? No one wants to fight him as they know how under estimated brook is as a boxer, and yes he may be desperate to fight Khan, but not becuase he is desperate or an "irritant" as some have said, but because, he knows he has the beating of him, and it will catapult him finally into the big time that he deserves. Try answering with something other than Oh dear.

Errr what are you basing that on, have they both fough the same fighters and had different out comes ? or is it just your opinion. Khan beating Mayweather hahahahahahahahahahahahahahah thats the best one yet on this thread. Jesus wept.

yes its annoying when somebody responds with "oh dear" isn't it why don't you do yourself a favour and see who used this dickish response first. I couldn't care less about your boxing credentials, and nobody is questioning his boxing ability? Again read your own posts. So your telling me khan has not fought the tougher competition? I'm a big Kell Brook fan but he is a nobody and seems content on padding his record until he fights Khan as that's his biggest payday. Your reason for Kell Brook not getting any big named fighters is laughable.

However you have not answered any of my points with any coherant counter argument. Now go and have a fag behind the bike sheds and chill out.
