Amir Khan vs. Kell Brook | Sky Sports PPV - 19 February 2022

[Polidori]

Did anyone mention Khan masturbating on Skype ?

[CaptainSpacerod]

Saying that somebody is gay isn’t a homophobic slur though is it.

Khan has merely drawn attention to the fact that there are rumours that Kell is gay, he’s never used the word in a pejorative way

Yeh he’s never dissed gay people has he?

He did today but you won't have seen in in the way most whites don't understand BLM.

He sneered, chuckled and launched into his sentence because Kell mentioned them sharing a room together at England sessions. He didn't want it to be thought he'd shared a room with Kell on a junior training camp because of the rumours. That is strong homophobia. If you can't see why you need educating.

Sounds like you need educating about normal human behaviour.

Most straight blokes don't want people thinking they have had homosexual relations.

[PredatorHayds]

Due to the impending storms Sky are expecting a large amount of homes in the UK to be without Satellite signal come Saturday night.

Not surprised if it gets re-arranged if anyone misses the weight.

Really? I don't think most people care. I don't. I care far more that some young (gay) lad who might be the next great hope in English boxing may see a British great like Amir recoil at the idea of sharing a room with a gay dude on a England camp. Or lads picking on the gay lad in their class when they go on a school trip and nobody wanting to share a room with him. It's awful small-minded behaviour.

[Counter-puncher]

Saying that somebody is gay isn’t a homophobic slur though is it.

Of course it is

Nobody mentions the sexuality of a straight fighter

That he even brings it up is clearly pointing to homosexuality as aberrant to the norm, worthy of mention and obviously referred to in a derisive manner.

The first recourse of the social media idiot is to tell somebody who offers an opinion they don’t agree with that they need educating.

I think you’re probably spoiling for an argument with anyone who doesn’t share your own narrow and mistaken perception of the truth and I certainly don’t come on boxrec to argue with woke keyboard warriors so I’m out

Cool. Schoolyard bully runs away when somebody calls them on their BS.

I disagree. Amir may well be having a dig at him but I think he’s having a dig at the fact that if Kell is gay he’s too embarrassed to tell the truth about it.

You can disagree all you want but that doesn't change the fact you are wrong.

Sure, he's saying *snigger, he's gay* in a totally woke and LGBT-supportive way


Khan isn't even capable of the mental coñtortions you are trying to normalise his behaviour with. Youre ascribing something vaguely like intellectual subtlety to him. He's got the IQ of a dog biscuit

Did anyone mention Khan masturbating on Skype ?

[Riddick Bowie]

Funnily enough, it was Amir Khan who was caught propositioning an open transexual over Instagram, so who knows, maybe it's projection on his part?

Due to the impending storms Sky are expecting a large amount of homes in the UK to be without Satellite signal come Saturday night.

Not surprised if it gets re-arranged if anyone misses the weight.

Plus travel difficulties. But no point having a PPV if nobody can see it and wants a refund

No way that happens, satellite dishes ? first time in history if it does.

This would be the big problem financially. If they had to refund pre-booked orders as they could still be classed as PPV buys to be distributed to the other parties.
They reckon a large proportion of Communal dishes in Wales and South of England could be out of play til Monday morning.
I’m guessing that will be a lot of people who’ve pre-ordered meeting that criteria.

I’m in the manchester area but I haven’t ordered it yet.

Have Sky actually confirmed this anywhere?

Be interesting to see how many communal dishes go down tomorrow.
Be interesting to see what Sky do if there’s a lot of them.
They are usually run by 3rd party companies that wouldn’t be able to fix them til Monday.

You on a Communal dish?

[a force]

Is Kell as shot as people are saying? Or did he just get done by one of the best fighters of the last 10 years? He didn't look bad until that moment.

Yes, he sort of unravelled fast but is it conclusive that he's finished?

He didn’t look a shot fighter to me. His jab & his timing were good he just had no punch resistance. I think it’s the weight more than anything.
