Eddie offers Khan £5m to fight Brook

[JimStone]

By the sounds of things, Khan isn't interested. IMO he knows there's a strong chance he'd get turned over and, if he did, that would be that. Fight Broner and win, get Mayweather. Fight Broner and lose, then think about Brook.

Re: Brook, Khan said: "He has to up his game a little bit to get that fight. In America no-one really knows Kell and the biggest boxing market is in America. In the UK it would be a huge fight but at the moment he is not on my radar."

And Khan is right and it looks like he's got a pretty big fight sorted, Broner is high profile - I reckon Khan can stop him.

Funny this, I remember eddie saying he does not talk about money (the non disclosure clause about how much froch/groves are getting paid). Hes changed his tune now hasn't he??

Like most people I am rapidly losing interest in Brook, 30 fights against nobody's, turned down bradely, a million final eliminators, pulled out of alexander twice. Instead of waiting for porter why not go after Provodnikov? that guy can not buy a fight despite being champ. He wouldn't have to wait until summer for that fight. Something tells be Hearn would not be too keen.

if i was kell or khan for that matter id stay away from the siberian tyson as it would be the hardest fight of their lives and it would end in L's on each of their record

X2 that man really does come for a scrap.

Second time was a legitimate injury, first time he went to camp too fat and they tried to buy another month to get the weight off. Came back to haunt them when Alexander got injured.

You're telling porkies now - Brook didn't go to camp - he carried on training from the Saldivia fight.

Carried on training after a fight?! Kell Brook? Yeah, right. I am sure he was back in the gum on a Monday after a quiet post fight celebration. And if you believe that ......
The new nutritionist he got in after the Carson Jones fight said he wouldn't safely be able to make weight.

Check out the Ingle gym page on twitter. Kell is regularly pictured in the gym at 7 on the Monday morning after a fight. I suppose you know better though.

Does he seriously think he will ever fight Floyd Mayweather? Garcia is more likely to be the September opponent, although if Porter beats Brook he could be in with a shout and for all his flaws, Broner would knock him out, the key to beating him is movement, Khan's quick, but he claims to have awkward footwork, which is code for 'I have no fornicating clue where to put my feet' and he comes forward in straight lines, Broner will time one and if he hurts Khan he'll keep throwing until it's over, would take a very mature, disciplined performance to beat Broner, something Khan isn't capable of.

[zero]

Isn't Kell Brook higher in the rankings than Khan therefore he would be fighting someone deemed to be better than him... for at least $3million quid what’s the problem? Khan was telling us he's too quick for Mayweather hence the reason Floyd shitting it, Brook should be an easy pay day.

It's all subjective. Brook should fight and beat Porter and then fight Khan. At the moment him and Hearn just look desperate for the fight and the payday as they're clearly not that confident when it comes to fighting Porter which would be in America.

[jimcook]

cant blame hearn and brook for wanting to make big money from a fight they know will be easy. when brook effortlessly smashes khan he might put himself in line for fight with mayweather

Khan didn't get any stick on here for turning down Alexander either. He'd rather fight someone other than Brook for less money.

Actually he did at the time!

[chad]

Clearly the Khan fight isn't going to happen. What next for Brook now? I'd quite like to see him face Devon Alexander with the winner going on to face Shawn Porter later in the year. For me Kell Brook has too be in a world title fight before the end of 2014. He's has so many eliminators and treading water fights that his career has stalled. As he often states himself, he's ranked highly with all 4 organisations. Worst case scenario, get him in for the IBO title.

[orbtastic]

Brook is Porter's mandatory, isn't he?

You can't accuse Khan of ducking Brook, its Brooks fault for not fighting at a world class level yet. Why would Khan waste his time fighting Brook what does it gain him? The £5 million pounds was thrown into a twitter conversation Hearn was having with someone theres no evidence of it actually existing. Khan has about about 5 or 6 top named high profile world class fighters to choose from that the US TV companies will want to see him face, I doubt they are interested in him fighting Kel.

Kel's quality dont get me wrong but are we ever actually going to see him fight a world class operator all i hear and see is talk and scuppered fights.

Why isnt Kel Brook going after Shawn Porter???????????????

[Pugilist-specialist]

Brook is Porter's mandatory, isn't he?

According to Hearn, after April 10, they can't fight unless it's each other.

It'll be a miracle if it all goes to plan and neither has a crazy accident that puts it back 6 months; Brook is jinxed.

It wasnt even 5 million pounds as it was! It's 5 million dollars.

[bigB]

Yeah he has - he has mentioned it in loads of IFL TV interviews including after Hull show said just to clarify this is an offer for $5mil and that he emailed Schaefer

[mickey1975]

I'm not too sure where the cash comes from to make Khan such a big offer. It's not as huge a fight as people are making out. It's very big, domestically, but barely causes a ripple on the world stage. It's no Froch-Groves or Haye-Fury over here even.
