    Um no.

    I remember you were one of the casuals who thought Groves had a chance. Pick another sport, I don't think boxing's for you. :rofl :rofl

    Other than Carl getting owned in that one fight more-so than he did for any of his previous fights, How is boxing not for me?

    Kell Brook? The man there a combo about 4 times tops last night. Khan would run rings around him.

    Khan couldn't run rings around Stephen Hawking. Brook could probably fight Khan as soon as he steps off hte plane and win comfortably.

    TRust me it's not close.

    Carl won the fight btw. Not much of an ownage. If you don't know that you don't know anything.

    I think it's the tiddlywinks national championships soon...maybe give that a go? :good

    Groves beat the brakes off of Carl in that first fight.

    Brook has the head movement of a mannequin. Khan's speed would be the key. He'd look like a cross between The Flash & Goku if he fought Brook.

    Brook is nothing special.

    Whereas Khan was so elusive against Watson, Gomez, Limond, Prescott, Peterson, Garcia and Diaz.

    I think they should fight ASAP although a stadium fight in the Winter doesn't make a lot of sense and Khan clearly still would want to fight Mayweather next year.

    Both will only fight twice a year now so I'd say May 2015 would be a logical month for the fight to happen.

    However the IBF will likely call a mandatory before then.

    Khan needs to run a gauntlet of JMM, Pac and Mayweather. Only then will he have the right to face Kell Brook.

    Totally agree. Eddie Hearn has also experience of filling Wembley and putting on a great show. I think Mayweather v Brook at Wembley next summer in a unification fight is best fight out there in division other than Pacman v Mayweather. Brook as I have always said is world class and would knock Khan out

    you might be right but brook would only have to land a couple of times and I think that would be enough to end the fight , amir is a great boxer but as we all know he can't take a punch fact

    Peanuts? Brook is now a pay per view fighter, as Hearn said before fight. 3 welterweight world champions, Mayweather, Pacman, Brook. Not bad company, that's why he is The Special One
