    Is the Brook vs Khan fight building or dramatically reducing?

    Khan talks about waiting for it to be mega fight but surely the best time should have been when Brook first won the title?

    Theyve both done sweet **** all since and fewer people would be interested now imo.

    I also think Khan needs Brook as much as the other way round now, his career is stalling and needs a big boost from somewhere.

    Its getting to the point where neither are relevant in the division... Does Khan even have a belt anymore? His career has become so sporadic that I've lost interest.

    Exactly! I don't think they were aware of how good and how much of a threat Chaves was - I was gutted when the fight was cancelled as I was going heavy £££ on Chaves. Chaves would've given Brook hell.

    I think you may be overrating Diego Chaves a wee bit mate, this is the same guy who was disqualified against Brandon Rios and was taken out pretty comfortably against Keith Thurman, he isn't the best boxer in then world but is pretty rough and strong but has failed every time he has came up against a World level boxer.

    Ok he got a draw against Timothy Bradley but that could have been down to complacency on Bradley's part and the fact that Bradley isn't a hard puncher. Imo Kell would have been too big, too smart and too sharp for Chaves and he would have KO'd him in the middle rounds.

    Thought Bradley won that one, bad decision in my opinion.

    Anyway, I do agree that Chaves is a little overrated as a result. I think it's quite telling of Brook that Chaves would be considered a good fight
