Notes
- Lo Greco appeared stunned by Khan’s sheer speed from the outset and, as soon as he dropped him with a right hand, it looked like a foregone conclusion. There was an eight count on that occasion and moments after the two squared off again, a flurry of left hands from Khan ended it all.
- Kell Brook entered the ring after the fight, only to be welcomed by boos by the Khan fans.
Post-Fight Quotes
- "I have been out the ring for two years but I was still in the gym working hard, I have never taken a day off. I wanted to prove a point coming back. I will fight Kell Brook and beat Kell Brook. Kell Brook has been living off my name for a long time. I am a stronger fighter, a better fighter." - Amir Khan
- "Kell Brook doesn't like Amir Khan. Amir Khan doesn't like Kell Brook. This fight should have happened twelve months ago, two years ago. We've still got time. Let's not regret it" - Eddie Hearn
