Brook nailed on win.... If we did a poll it would be 99% in favour of brook

Brook move on and make your path !

Only people who want this is brook for dosh and people who want to see Khan KO again
I'd like to make a bit of dosh (great use of the word, not heard it in ages) too as I think the bookies would price it fairly even

I have said this countless times. It would be a lot more fun making sure he never got the big fight and the mega millions.

Going on Khans assumption that he would beat him and how he thinks it would then pan out
Scenario one - Fight him, bang him out, enjoy that joy for a long time but eventually, it will not be much on his radar and just another win but then for Kell, he feels pain for a while, embarrassed a while, lives a life of riches forever. For me Kell is in a win win if they fight.

Scenario two - Khan does not fight him. Kell fails to get any big fights. Kell has a big pot of money but not mansion and Bentley money. In 20 years, Khan is still lording it in his mansion knowing Kell is having a lesser life because of him.

I can see how that is more fun than punching him.
it's pathetic and vindictive. I really disliked Hatton for saying that was his reason to not fight witter. Basically saying if I fight him he gets a really nice life, can send his kids to a good school, have a big house, drive a nice motor, go on nice holidays... I don't want him to have that. I've got it and he hasn't. Good.

Seriously, what a prick.
I think it's more a case of Witter baiting Hatton to try to get a fight and it backfired on him. I wouldn't blame Ricky for that, especially as he had other options.

That's it, Witter acted like a c*nt and got a c*nts reaction, apparently they're alright with each other nowadays.

As much as i'd love to see Brook/Khan,i would rather Kell shut up about it,he's the champ,has Camp Eddie in his corner and the Motorpoint will never be too big for him to fill so move on pal,deal with it,safe in the knowledge you tried to make the fight,Amir didnt want it,carve out your own legacy then in time people will say Khan ducked you if you have your own great career,its pretty tragic listening to a champ beg someone who hasnt been world champ for 4 years for a fight

It annoys me when fighters get obsessed about other fighters when its long been accepted that no ones blaming them for the fight not happening,Froch bugged me with Calzaghe too

If your good enough it wont matter,plenty more fish in the sea,its like that guy who begs their ex who fucked them about,to take them back

Agree with most of this, except it looks like Brook's heading for a stadium fight next.

Got a mate , he was a dab hand with the ladies , but became the model husband He found out his missis was playing the field , obviously arched up , kicked her out , she moved in with lover boy ,, But he seen the other guys wife , put it on her and used to go round to fill in the gap said loverboy left to be filled ,, bIT of good old fashioned payback plus he reckons she was a cracking shag , right dirty little bitch he said .

Anyway , Not to long after ,were all suprised he's begging his wife for forgivness , bla bla bla ,, the other guy was'nt all he seemed so she left him and we nt back with my mate ,, We all thought he was off his head , about a month later , his wife all in love again with her new found hubby , came home from a night with the girls , and found him stuck up some woman .. He tells her fack off , you started it , so you got 2 choices either join in and become the scrubber you are or fack off back to lover boy , if he'll have you .

My wife reckons he's a can't .. Me alls i say is :clap: RESPECT :clap:

Interesting this Hearn thing is coming through. Obviously Khan has fought on Sky since Hearn had "exclusivity", although perhaps he has had a better deal with allegedly... leaving him to question if the fight can make money on Sky?

Perhaps there is still a bit of anger about the McCloskey situation? The Hearns did rub it in Khan's face a bit with the Sky box office t-shirt and caps.

I don't know, but I am running out of patience with Khan. Up until this point I've agreed with Khan's view. He is the bigger star and has bigger fish to fry (or get fried by) but now.... Garcia aside, I think Khan is running low on options. It must be a bit frustrating for him in his defense cos Brook has done nothing in the last two years or so to warrant a huge fight. What I mean is that Khan said, and I agreed, that Brook has got to have a least one meaningful defense against a genuine contender to then get Khan vs Brook to be as huge as possible.... he hasn't done that. People were disappointed when Khan fought Algeiri. Algeiri would be one of the best names on Brook's resume.

He was an underwater camera man for the National Geographic channel.

His area was plankton but I think he got promoted to prawns recently.

Before that he was a BT engineer. Hence why he was called a switch-hitter, as he often turned equipment on and off to make it work again.

Toby,
Kell already lives in a mansion and if he wanted one could buy a Bentley tomorrow.

I think this had more to do with it than "I don't want him to get the payday", in addition to the fact that, when the fight was at it's peak of popularity, it was prior to Ricky's mega money days of Mayweather etc, and around the Tszyu time, so the risk/reward was massively out of kilter for Ricky, as Witter didn't bring much to the table really.

(I know Witter went on to have a stellar career after this, but Ricky had moved on and it would have been a bit of a step back post-Mayweather IMO; by the time it might have worked, Witter was done. The only, small window for this would have been when Ricky fought Lazcano; Witter lost the WBC belt to Tim Bradley around then).

To be fair Khan has a load of options in front of him all with big money. The Brook fight isn't too if his agenda.

Brook has Jessie Vargas or Diego Chaves and a mandatory against Errol Spence.

Hopefully that's both the next 18 months filled for them both. It's highly unlikely for them to meet now.
It's a shame but no-one can knock Khan now as he finally did get that superfight.
