    Complete joke that he hasn't fought for months but gets a title shot. He'll avoid Brook I'd imagine this year despite that being a money fight.

    Khan wouldn't fight Garcia again. Khan doesn't try to avenge defeats.

    Brook should just move on he can make that khan fight money in America he as garcia , Thurman , porter rematch hell he could even drag broner up Marcos maybe ,cotto ,Peterson, Spence then canyouweighlow above

    And does it count now? When Floyd was holding that belt it didn't matter who was the #1 contender because he didn't get the shot anyway. Only if by some weird turn of events Floyd wanted to fight him anyway.

    Think he needs some time off to contemplate his next move.

    Surely he would make more money getting knocked out by Brook than getting knocked out by Garcia again?

    I'm not a fan of Khan, actually I give him a lot of stick.

    But good luck to him, I hope he goes and wins it, he is a British fighter and love or hate him if he is fighting for a world title against a foreigner then we should bang the drum for him.

    You can't blame Khan for the shambles that the governing bodies have become, Khan didn't make himself the mandatory, the WBC did.

    Hopefully Garcia beats RG, Khan beats Garcia, the beats Kell.

    1) He avenges a loss.
    2) He kills Kell's "career" AND wins ANOTHER belt in the process
    3) Goes on to unify

    As a neutral, Khan has to win. No if's or but's about it.

    Kell with one title is a disaster. Kell with two titles? Jesus...

    I know the IBF enforce mandatories, but Kell just cannot get a big fight, end of. Even with the WBC belt nobody would bother with him.

    At least if Khan wins he'll be defending it in a country where it's the place to fight at, which is conveniently where he has based himself and fought big names in many-a-time.

    Thurman vs Brook in Sheffield? You must be joking!

    And if Kell lost hopefully he'd jump ship to the states and MAKE the big fights happen (that's if he wants them of course).

    Khan shouldn't even give them lot the payday just so Kell has to fight someone worth talking about (and because it'd kill them financially if it never got made).
