    Why the **** should this bum who can't compete at elite level be handed another world title shot when he doesn't deserve it...

    If he fights Brook , hearn should make it 75-25 Split for Brook.

    Just because of his fame... he should get another shot? if it was anyone else they'd have to go back to domestic level..

    Khan should be fighting the likes of Bradley Skeete next if boxing was a fair sport.

    don't think it'll sell out Wembley now.. Khan would surely be a huge underdog

    Lol doesn't matter what you think. Brook tweeted immediately after the fight begging for Khan to give him a payday yet again. Whether he deserves it or not is irrelevant, Khan can still tell Brook to jump to what ever heights he chooses.

    A real fighting man would have called out the victor.

    If Khan next week agreed to fight Brook then Brook and Hearn would take it instantly and fans would buy tickets for it, it would sell out.

    I don't like this "deserving" a fight nonsense, I didn't like it when Khan said it about Brook and I won't agree if Brook says it about Khan.

    They are our best fighters at 147, a natural rivalry, Khan has a far better resume so getting knocked out by a middleweight shouldn't make Khan undeserving of a fight most British boxing fans would love to see.

    I know I don't understand why he put that tweet out... it was stupid. There's plenty of paydays at Welterweight with other big names. Probably he still wants it because it's such an easy pay day... couldn't get an easier payday than that.

    But he should be laughing at his loss and not even mentioning his name, brook is elite, Khan is not. It's strange.

    Khan will avoid brook now forever. Bad k.o for Khan can see him a bit like when groves got big k.od by froch, took his soul. Brook would beat Khan.

    I agree, I don't think he recovers mentally from that, that was brutal.

    Yet again another person on here who knows nothing about the sport. The purse and split has nothing to do with 'deserving' or otherwise. If a fight is going to make big money because of both names involved then both fighters have a strong bargaining position. Matchroom are desperate for this fight to fill one of their PPV slots and Khan's team knows this. Therefore, he's going to get well paid whether you think it's deserved or not.

    Khan is not a top level fighter. I saw people complaining when Lamont Peterson was mentioned as a potential opponent for Brook, yet Peterson is a tougher and already has the W over Khan.

    I actually see Khan upsetting Brook and not a fight either one should take for granted. If I was Khan I'd fight Brook end of year for a huge purse and retire a rich man with his brain still intact. If Brook loses he should call it a day and if he wins then onward and upward for him.

    Can hardly compare the KOs though. Groves would have beaten the count!

    I don't see this great resume you are talking about ...:nut:lol:

    Plus .. Khan has 4 Losses 3 by KO. Brook is undefeated.. Does that not count for anything in your book...:huh

    He may be undefeated but he's beat 1 name of note.

    Khan has been involved in tougher + higher profile fights.

    For the record, I think Brook knocks him out.
