Summer 2016.
What makes you think that?

Khan can't be bothered to fight Brook in 2015, yet somehow, after doing very little this year, he's suddenly going to want the fight in 2016?

I know one of Khan's excuses for swerving Brook was that Kell's not a big enough name, but that's going to be no different in 2016 judging by the corpses that are being dug up for Kell to feast on at the moment.

Brook is more likely to rematch No No Dan than share a ring with Khan in '16.
Parsons doesn't just say things like that to troll, so it must be close to being done.
That's a valid point although trying to predict what Khan is going to do ie possibly change his mind is an altogether different matter.

It is a tricky situation for Kell, he wants to keep that belt, but injuries have plagued him since becoming champ. His next fight after Bizier has got to be a big one, unification or someone like Khan or Garcia, or perhaps try again for Chaves.
My 40 year old Six Million Dollar Man doll is a better fighter than No No Dan!

I feel sorry for Brook, because these types of opponents are doing him no favours whatsoever.
Ha ha, I don't doubt that.

I am not sure I feel sorry for him though, he needs to be a bit stronger and think about where his career is going. He is wasting his time at the moment against the likes of Dan and Bizier. Just relinquish the belt if you have to and fight someone else. His legacy in the sport won't come from how many times he defended the belt, but who he has beaten. At the moment Brook is a quality fighter who fights poor quality opponents.
Calzaghe's did

Calzaghe didn't make a breakthrough until the lacy fight when suddenly he became known to the masses. same goes for Froch who didn't make a breakthrough to many until the bute demolition.

Brook just hasn't had that breakout night yet. he may get it this year if he faces khan but currently he is like calzaghe fighting to keep the belt until the breakout fight happens.
