    According to Eddie Hearn who obviously has to announce it.

    I mean I don't see how the 2nd fight sells as Khan was battered for the entire time.

    No chance the result changes

    All this terminology for the Bramall Lane Best Car Park Attendant Title - about as pointless as the first fight yet some PPV Mugths bought it.

    So how does it work? What if Kell Brook 'retires' then comes back within a short period of time to face Benn. Would they avoid paying Con step aside money?

    Sky have done themselves a kipper here. First fight just over broke even which was a stretch given the purses. If the have the same purses in the rematch poor Shalom is going to have kittens.

    hopefully there’s a get out clause for Sky and they can remove themselves from having the rematch broadcast

    Probably suits both Khan and Brook. There just aren't any realistic opponents for them besides each other. They'll both get paid quite well also.

    Can't see a rematch happening. The TV networks will know the fight wouldn't do the same kind of numbers seeing how one sided it was.

    I knew brook would ask for crazy money to fight Benn. His trying to cash in and can't blame him.

    Shrewd from Khan. The fight won't happen but gives him leverage for a chunk of step aside money. Seems like the Benn fight isn't happening though (Hearn says Brook asked for too much) so interesting to see where Brook goes from here

    brook should call it
    and pull a whyte do **** all to promote it
    watch khan pull out with injury
    kell should load up at the bookies on that outcome
    otherwise khan gets done in 3
    and kell still gets paid minimal work / effort

    Could be a play to try get step aside money
