    No world class wins at WW. Khan has to prove he can fight a pressure fighter/puncher before he deserves a pay day vs Kell.

    True, he does need to fight someone good, but he may want to avoid brook all together

    Well Khan's best result in well over 3 years was put into some perspective last night when Alexander got beat. Alexander was hurt quite a few times by a man with 4 KO's in 20 fights.

    I'm waiting for Khan fans to tell me what an amazing fighter Aaron Martinez (20-4-1) is now.

    Khan fans have that win over Alexander as some sort of masterclass, they also believe khan was more dominant over Algeri than pac was, this is what you're dealing with

    No fight with Kell in it is a barnstormer.

    Yeah last nights result with Alexander has taken away from one of Khans best recent wins.

    The next opponent does need to be dangerous. I suspect it will be either Peterson or Guerreo. Part of me says they will be acceptable but the other part says it needs to be a Thurman (which is actually a fight he would win well) or Garcia which would be great to see.

    bit of a stupid thing to say but coming from u I don't expect anything less. :patsch

    Eddie Hearn is desperate for Khan to agree to fight Brook. Matchroom know Brook VS Khan would be a massive fight In the UK. Name me 1 fighter who come to the Uk in 2016 ???


    I am a fan of Kell but u talking **** bye :hi:

    In the build up to Porter VS Brook I though Porter was a wally. But fair play to him since the loss he has came back well and fighting Broner and now Thurman :good

    Not that sparing has a massive indication but intersting to hear Porter waxed Thurman everywhere is sparring!!

    Total 50/50 for me. Porter been in with better opposition but really like Thurmans style. Am going porter to walk on to a Thurman right hand.
