    Based on what i've seen tonight, he has a better feel for the ring than Khan. Khan is a freight train that derails when his opponent pressures him. Kell has more dimensions as a boxer and looks like he can adjust better than Khan. Is Kell brook better than Khan?

    I think Kell has more tools. Doesn't rely solely on speed like khan.

    Id like to see Brook in with a better fighter before making this judgment

    though Ive never seen Khan do some of the things Brook is capable of

    If you guys are trolling thats ok, but if you're serious then someone needs to examine your brains.

    Kell fought a guy ranked 192 in the world before the fight. People hate khan on picking Salita who was ranked 70th in the world and blew him away. Kell just fought a bum, he did what he was supposed to do. Nothing special right now.

    Right now and in the near future, Kel Brook beats Amir Khan!

    After what I saw last night I even think Kel would have a good chance against Pacquiao. He has everything; range, reflexes, timing, speed, power, agility and a great boxing brain! He made a fan out of me last night!

    You dont think Brook has a style that can trouble Pacquiao?

    Do you know ANYTHING about boxing?

    1. I think he should fight someone who breathes before we discuss his chances against an ATG.

    2. I can assure you, Ive FORGOTTEN more about this sport than you'll ever know.

    Andre Berto would look like Ray Leonard, and Ortiz would look like Duran if they fought the stiff Brook faced tonight.

    Brook has decent talent though, and the notion he could beat/be better than Khan isnt very far fetched. Khan blows.

    But to give him a realistic chance against Pac without him having beat ANY decent fighters yet is comical.

    Then you shouldnt take the **** out of this perfectly logical comment I have made.

    Did I say Brook beats Pac? Did I say he was on the same level? NO!! I said he would have a good chance. HE WOULD!! He has a great counterpunching style that in some ways similar to Marquez yet his footwork seems a lot faster. Would he take Pacs power? Thats a different matter and we wont know until he gets caught by a renowned puncher.

    Kel Brook is the kind of fighter that Pacquiao would have to think hard to beat, regardless of his lack of experience.

    Im talking about styles here!
