    Brook's best wins are Jennings and N'dou. until he is tested he is nothing more than a prospect.

    To say the un-tested Brook would KO khan after he has been in with Judah, Maidana, Kotelnik, Malinaggi is crazy. The level of opposition Khan has faced are all contenders or former champions.

    I rate Brook and would like to see him win a title as he has great skills. I wouldn't want him to be fed to Khan at this stage.

    If Brook had beat someone of world class caliber, or someone close to it and showed me that he can counter well against somebody who's on the level of Amir Khan, I may have been inclined to agree, but I've seen nothing as of yet.

    I'm not saying he won't get there, it's just that we haven't seen him in any sort of top level test to say he can do so. Maybe his fight this weekend will show us more, we shall see, but from what I have seen of him right now, doesn't show he can beat Amir, and I'm pretty sure the poll speaks for itself.

    all true fella, i think that by the time Khan moves up Brook will have fought decent opo and have a strap to bring to the table........all in all its a fight that will happen at some point so i guess we will find out one way or the other.

    i think when Brook steps it up he will show class, i think he should be moved fast now,

    likewise pal.......i think that the better you are in with the more it brings out of you, and you climb to new levels.

    No I don't really, I'd doubt Brook would even get near a stoppage of the current day Malignaggi who has declined even further from when Khan fought him. He'd beat Paulie on pts I reckon but out of the rest on the list, I wouldn't make him clear favourite in any to be honest.

    His power is getting overrated it seems to me. He's certainly got some good points don't get me wrong but talk of him becoming a "star" is very premature IMO.

    I really don't know mate. Maidana would be his hardest test but then again he aint no pushover for anyone. Brook is going to be world champ i have no doubts about that.

    Do i think he would beat Khan? No, purely because Khan is that step ahead of him right now.

    Then again......... Khan is the guy moving up, has **** timing, bad chin, couldn't take out McClosky, should have been stopped against Maidana so there's all that to think about aswell. Hopefully mayweather will fight and beat Khan in the UK then Khan will want Brook for a comeback fight. By then Brook will have had a couple more fights and that little bit more experience to fight a big name like Khan.

    Khan stoppage.

    Brook's too easy to hit.

    i dunno mate, maybe so but kell can hit back!......at this stage of Khan's career he had been decked by no marks really, Brook has showed no signs of getting sparked imo....

    Brook's style is elusive, maybe he can be jabbed at but i cant see anyone getting to him to put him in deep waters imo.

    Brooks power is vastly over rated he has not got a single KO on his record considering his opposition that is shocking.

    He's not elusive at all mate. He backs up with his chin in the air and when someone catches him it's going to be good night for Kell I suspect. I don't expect it to happen too soon because he is good coming forward, but when he reaches title level he's going to be in trouble I think.
