even though he’s signed with Hearn I just can’t see him taking this Brook fight. Last night he’s put on his snapchat about a good night of boxing and talks about Wilder and then Dirrell but Brook doesn’t even get a mention?
He knew Canelo would knock him out aswell but that didn't stop him from fighting him! Khan dont give a fcuk, he just wants that paper. And Khan vs Brook will bring in paper!!!
It will but there's a difference between being knocked out off Canelo and knocked out off Brook. Mentally it will hurt alot more off Brook.
No where near the paper it would have done 3\6 years ago This ship sailed long ago imo I would not be entertained in a fore gone conclusion That's way past its sell by date
If I was Brook I wouldn't fight at 147 in again. He offered Khan that fight loads when he was at 147 ib and he knocked it back so unless he wants it at a higher weight he shouldnt fight him.
Khan needs to fight Brook before he gets a belt at 154lbs; if he does Khan has no bargaining power and will clearly be the B side in negotiations. Khan has lost a lot of his fan base not because of the Canelo KO but inactivity this fight needs to be made next otherwise it's meaningless.

Hearn doesn’t care about Khan saving face. He will make this fight with Brook because it’s ALL about the money and it’s a long anticipated grudge match. For Brook it’s an easy nights work to be frank but a great pay day.
I m sceptical it ever gets made as well tbh. Khans always ran away from the fight. Doesn't exactly fill me with optimism him fighting le Greco next. Who looks genuinely useless. Khan at this stage should be rejecting fights like that. Understand its a comeback fight. Rabchenko,s was an acceptable fight...at a new weight after 2 losses. Shows brook still wants to compete. Whereas le greco points towards khan no longer being interested. If he was he would have rejected that fight. Awaiting khans new excuses for when the time comes. I actually think he does better against brook that people think as well. Hell give brook problems with them fast hands. I know brooks timings top notch...but its not all that easy to time someone's hands coming at you at the speed khans does. He slows down and becomes predictable...but hunters got him a bit smarter than what he was. Think brook stops him...but he,ll struggle to get going for a while. Not the 3 round KO people are thinking of.
I don’t know why but Brook can’t let go of the idea of this fight. Maybe because he wants to retire soon and this would be his biggest pay day? But he can definitely win a belt at 154 and then go for the spence rematch. Which would be massive stateside!
fight will get made but the weight im not sure about both there come back opponents have been selected to make them look good really there styles of there come back opponents are very similar
Brook coming back off back to back brutal stoppages. Khan on the back of one and 2 years + of inactivity.
Khan has always avoided domestic fights that were considered dangerous at the time. Way back at the start of his career Khan should have fought John Murray and Thaxton, Khan claimed he was above domestic level and didn't fight either. He would have probably beaten both but they would have been dangerous fights at the time. I believe Khan can live with himself if he loses to Mexicans, Americans or whoever else because in his mind he is still the "Best in Britain", he is still the number 1 in his country, if he fought and lost to a domestic rival he can't claim that and it lives with him forever. The Brook fight won't happen in my opinion, too much needle, too much pride, too much has been said, too many insults and we would finally get the answer to who is the best. Khan is not risking it, he wouldn't and couldn't live with himself and he would never be allowed to forget it now with social media the way it is.
