Amir Khan vs. Kell Brook: Possible for Early December 2018

Post by Ruthless-RKO »

At the Principality Stadium.

Eddie Hearn revealed this weekend that he wants to make Amir Khan vs. Kell Brook on December 8 on pay-per-view.

Possibly December 1 or December 8..

Khan is fighting next month, Question is, does Brook fight again before December? IF the fight even goes ahead..

I thought they could do Old Trafford. Would have been better, but obviously it's December, Premier League is hectic and we need a roof.

Nice early Christmas present if this comes off.

No result would surprise me, although very difficult to gauge what either one has left. Might be plenty, might be little.

Lost a bit of interest in this but think it's more of a 50/50 then i previously did.

Thought Brook would walk through Khan but if this happens at welterwight then I think can Khan takes this.

Would throw Del Boy and his Welsh fighters on undercard to help with the sell but it should be do well in Cardiff even if though it should be in Manchester.

Yes please!
:yay:
It has taken too long, but unlike Pac/Wifebeater I'm still looking forward to this fantastic British bust up!

I'm picking Kell for purely fan-boy related reasons :oops:

just cant see it happening.

Khans talking about pac again.

What weight do they fight. Khan I don't think will budge from welter and I doubt either man wants to give up an advantage or be at a perceived disadvantage.

Brook pre spence all day everyday. no idea now.

150/151 catch weight - both will take it in the end up simply because of the millions on offer.

If I was Brook I would tell Khan to do one...... Khan has made every excuse to avoid him and will only make more. He will demand it at 147 which they could have done it at years ago but it's not a weight Brook should do anymore. Brook should try and make himself a legacy and go after 154 champions not saying he will beat them but it would be great for him if he did.

I don't think Khan would. There's always been plenty of money there for him to take the fight - if anything its depreciated in the last couple of years. I think he would take it now as that's why he's went with hearn, but only at 147.

He moved up to Middleweight to fight Canelo. Money or not, that takes balls

I agree. If Khan starts chanting about the fight having to be at 147 Brook should tell him to bolt!

He shouldn't have a problem facing Brook at a catch weight then :maybe: I can see him digging in and insisting it's at 147 though.

TBF, he did regret moving up. He just filled out a little and accepted that he should have never taken that fight.

These two bore me to distraction.

Khan is semi retired & Brook has left the WW division.

I'm past caring whether they fight or not now.

I kinda feel the same. It's still a good fight but if it does actually happen it's gonna be built up to be something it's not!

With Khan's inactivity and Brook's eye injuries it's anyone's fight should it happen but like most of the posters on here i think it's past it's sell by date.

Personally I would have all Brook v Khan threads deleted until an official announcement of the fight. It's gone on far too long and it's nowhere near being done. It should have happened in May 2015.
