    Canelo is not a bigger puncher than Golovkin, Khan is glass, it was a great KO but remember who Canelo was knocking out, a man Willie Limond dropped ffs.

    Khan couldn't cope mentally losing to Brook, it would ruin his life, there is way too much pride on the line and it is a defining fight in British boxing fans eyes, it answers the question who was the number 1 in the U.K. and it is clear Khan doesn't believe he wins.

    Khan said he wanted big fights for big money, the difference here is Khan is now being offered more than he got for Canelo and still won't take the fight.

    Brook wants the Khan fight and Khan don't. There is no good reason on Khans part for turning the fight down. It would be his biggest payday, it's for a world title and it's a huge PPV event here in the U.K. at this point it's a duck, you can't describe it any other way.

    Canelo hits bloody hard, much harder than Brook that is for damn sure, if Khan fought Canelo then how can he be scared to fight Brook.

    This is the same logic you used for Brook not ducking Spence! Stop talking smack and using double standards. If Brook ain't ducking Spence then Khan clearly ain't ducking Brook.

    Ffs Khan will only get 60/40, Brook is getting 75-25!!!!!!!!!

    Khan hates Brook and is refusing to give him a pay day unless he gets the lions share and not just parity.

    Hearn and Brook have talked too much smack and only fought bums, Brook should have to earn his pay day and getting a close decision against Porter and humiliated by GGG isnt good enough.

    He has to beat Spence or give up the lions share!

    Who the f has Porter beat? his best win is Alexander and Khan humiliated Alexander and Porter barely beat him!!!!

    same with Brook fighting GGG!!!!

    Only thing is Brook got bashed from pillar to post getting a hiding and his face broken and his **** fans call him a hero.
    Khan gives Canelo a boxing lesson and gets put to sleep with a single shot and the tards here say he was humliated.

    Who really did better and try to be objective because it wasn't Brook!!!!!

    That's a fair post, actually.

    Honestly, I would say Brook did "better" because he went to war with Golovkin and made it fairly close for a while. I rate GGG as a cut above Canelo. Khan looked better than Brook vs Canelo, but then, Canelo isn't as good as Golovkin.

    I see where you're coming from, however, because Khan did make Ginger look silly there for a while.

    One got sent to the afterlife and one didn't.

    Khan is KO highlight reel forever.

    This is not about GGG, Thurman or Garcia. It's about Spence and Brook. Spence is Brook's mandatory and being that Brook no longer has the Khan fight, the question is " What is Brook gonna do" vacate or fight"?

    There are a few questions, will Spence Jr and his people want it to go to purse bids?

    If they do and lose the purse bid will they be happy with a mandatory %?

    Will he travel to the UK?

    It is not all on Brook, Brook hasn't got to go out of his way here, Hearn and Brook can let this run a little bit and force Spence to accept a very modest purse, they owe him nothing and let's remember Brook had to travel for his world title shot so Spence might have to travel for his.

    Brook is currently coming back from a broken head so all this talk about "Brook ducking" is complete rubbish. We will see what happens in the next few weeks but I wouldn't be surprised if it does look like it's going to purse bids Spence Jr and his people take a different direction.

    Why has everyone got it into their head every 147 fighter is ducking Spence? Looks great via the eye-test, but who has he beaten to justify this theory all and sundry are avoiding him? Algieri? Bundu? lol

    Get some perspective, man...

    As for Brook in particular, let's make this simple: Yes, he will boil down to 147 to fight Khan = that's his biggest pay day right there and against a fighter he can handle even if he is weight-drained. Spence is likely a tougher test for MUCH less money and that match-up doesn't justify the risk of getting a 154 physique into the WW division aged the wrong side of 30. The fact he looked so comfortable at 160 is clear evidence his body has outgrown 147 but Brook is a prizefighter and is looking to earn as much as he can in the 8-10 fights left in his career. So at 147 = Khan, yes; Spence, no. That's not ducking - it's managing a career - and I just wish people here were a bit smarter in assessing why fights might not take place.

    Spence needs to fight a couple of better fighters before I choose to hug his nuts...
