Their nowhear near the best 147 fighters. Come off it mate, Brook is now 5th at WW IMO, As for Khan not even in the top 10 for me. Mayweather and Pacquiao are miles ahead of both. Bradley has also done far more then Broook or Khan, same with JMM. Could make a case for Thurman being above Brook as well but he hasn't beaten the quality names yet to put him there. Credit to Brook but it's not like he's some p4p level fighter now.
Brook has been the one calling Khan out at every opportunity. Khan rightfully asked him to get one win against a world class fighter. Now that finally Brook has one meaningful win, he thinks hes p4p king himself asking Khan to get in line. Brook will find that Danny Garcia, Thurman, Mathysse, Maidana will all put him back to irrelevancy. So the safest route that gets him the most money and recognition will be Khan. However, Brook feels he can't beat Khan and now that he doesn't need Khan he would rather avoid fighting him.
finally someone with cool and logical head positing on this forum. besides shawn porter (who a lot of brits didn't rate anyway) he has 32 tomato cans on his record. One decent win and he thinks he's king kong. i loved how khan presented himself in the studio... cool and calm, unfazed by the big clash in UK... amir khan knows what's up and he just asked kell to prove himself and rightly so.
Can't read or you're clueless about what happened before? http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...kell-brook-as-eddie-hearn-names-next-opponent https://www.facebook.com/SaturdayNightBoxing/posts/710179999002523?stream_ref=10 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/bo...-Kell-Brooks-face-proving-fans-Sheffield.html http://www.espn.co.uk/boxing/sport/story/173454.html Important notice to Khan fans. Did you see the $5 million offer by Brook's promoter?, that's how you officially attempt to make fights, barking on twitter doesn't.
Most people here seem to have personal disliking for Khan so that explains why their reasoning. Shawn Porter was a good win for Kell, but Kell and his fans are acting like he slayed a dragon. Khan will box Brook on the outside and will make Brook look foolish. Brook knows it, which is why he's retreating from the fight with his tail between his legs.

My post was about Khan doing the same to Brook, not Rhodes(who is obviously a Light Middleweight/Middleweight).
One, it was not an official written offer. It was a verbal offer which is no better than a twitter offer. Secondly, at the time Brook did not have a single meaningful fight at the world level. I know its easy to ignore these points when you are blindly biased but they are relevant to the discussion.
The 2 best boxers at welter woooh lets not get ahead of ourselves ..There is a 140 pounder guy could still demolish Khan.
yeah i know now but didnt follow you at the time, thats the point of the post one second khan thought he was above brook then the next brooks telling him to wait in line
