    Good. Now hopefully he takes it and looks impressive in the ring for a change. Dominating fighters and avenging losses on twitter isn't getting him a major fight against Mayweather.

    I agree..

    In a sense Khan didn't really deserve the fight anyway, but I guess Floyd put him in the running so why not..

    If he beats Brook or beats any other champion out there the fight will be more exciting. At the moment, Khan has been inactive for one year and is coming off a life and death experience against Diaz. Terrible opponent compared to Maidana.

    Khan should take it. It won't get any better for him money-wise (no pun intended).

    Khan should take the offer, Mayweather will not pay him that much more anyways.

    If he wins he can fight Mayweather on better terms

    Khan would duck Kell Brook.

    Kell Brook will put Khan's Mayweather plans to bed.

    You're from the UK, you should know that Brook is well known to boxing fans over here. A Khan vs Brook fight would sell out a big arena and get lots of buys on box office.

    He was already considered, and still possibly is, even though he's one year inactive and coming off a life and death experience against Diaz.

    Beating Brook does not make you a viable opponent for Floyd but Khan beating brook would be Khan's first decent win at WW.
