    I am not sure if you are trolling, but how is Alexander at 28, only having losses to Porter and Bradley now shot? Also Judah beat Mathysse only a few months prior to Judah and was a major belt holder at the time - how is that shot? Also how does it matter if Maidana was at 140, the guy is fighting at 147 now.

    I like Brook, but he is the same age as Khan and had one fight in his career so far where he wasn't an overwhelming favourite. Khan took infinitely more risks in his career to do date, yet he is a product and Brook is a fighter? Nonsense. Brook will have his share of losses if he starts facing top 5 guys - you watch.

    You think the IBF would let Brook bypass his mandatory for a fight with Bradley or JMM? Of course they would.

    secondly im not a bengali fanboy. Im 31,white father of 2 and scottish (not ginger).

    Like i said in my first post Kell is an excellent fighter, fighting bums like Dan does nothing for him what so ever.

    "Brook is a fighter,Khan is a product". What a ridiculous statement to make. You think "a product" survives the tenth round against Maidana or constanly fights through rounds 3 and 4 of the Garcia fight. He may have a paper chin but he has bags of heart.

    Like i also said previously if you go through my post history. Khan is a bellend, im in no way a bumboy of his or even a fan. He was lucky against Molina, Limond,Diaz, barrera fight should have been a NC.

    My point is when Khan was in the USA fighting top ten ranked fighters and picking up world titles Brook was fighting Senchenko and Matthew Hatton. Its a fact not my opinion take it as you will.

    And finally if they fight, Brook would knock him senseless.

    Brook would beat him.

    I hope the fight gets made, and the bookies make the Brook the underdog.

    Amir is the bigger shot of the two, which is why Brook is desperate to fight Khan. Khan can make good money fighting anyone but Brook cannot.

    You are showing hindsight bias.

    When Khan fought Judah 4 years ago, Judah was the belt holder and was coming off a win against KO artist Matthysse, therefore he was clearly not 'shot'. And Judah had never been beaten in a one-sided fashion the way Khan dominated him every second of the fight. In fact, before the fight many picked Judah to KO Khan's glass chin.

    Likewise, when Maidana fight was made, people thought that Maidana would obliterate Khan. Maidana was just coming off a very impressive KO wins against Manuel Cayo and Victor Ortiz.

    Khan being the champion went to Peterson's backyard and lost a controversial decision to someone that has admitted to taking PEDs for his fight against Khan. So, Khan clearly has no problem taking on tough assignments and he relishes tough fights.

    He is certainly not a product and has taken on some tough fights. Brook is a good fighter, but in fact it is Brook that has a massively padded record.

    Nobody can deny Khan has fought top opposition but since the loss to Garcia his been on a safety first mission. His been inactive and very selective in choice of opponent.

    The excuses Khan keeps finding to not fight Brook are ridiculous.

    The irony in that Froch refers to himself as an international superstar!

    But he's white so it's ok I guess

    What does him having previously fought better opposition have to do with him currently ducking Brook, fannyboy? Porter is still a much better win than anything Khan has since the Maidana fight.

    Here's a fact: Khan doesn't have an opponent scheduled and wants to fight around the same period that a Brook fight was referenced. It's one of the most logical matchups to make in boxing, the demand and financial rewards are massive and it would easily be the biggest fight Khan has ever been apart of.
