    You know I'm spot on about you living in a council flat.

    I made this poll because I was a fan (still kind of am) but am losing my support for him. He's got plenty of ability, he's just wasting it. Some people aren't going to like him regardless but the general consensus to me suggests if he shutup, fought better opposition more often people will be back on his side.

    I'm not a khan hater, just grown tired of defending him.

    Why do you think disliking him for cheating on his wife is odd? Not seeking a ruck, just asking. Thats the main reason I dislike him- not a bad boxer in my view- along with his over-inflated opinion of his ability and importance. Pretty much everyone ducks, so I dont really tend to single him out for that, its more a product of how disorganised and corrupt the sport is.

    He has one of the shakiest mandibles in boxing- literally dropped by Regional Area level fighters on the way up. Really for me to follow someone and be a fan, they need to have a set of whiskers on them. His style of "KO" early on was naff, throwing powder puff flurries and getting the referee to jump in...that also stuck in the throat and turned me off.

    Northern accent eyy oop lad, was funny

    Good boxer but if he wants the big two he needs beat a thurman or bradley or maidana 2, if he beats one of them he gets his big fight, he must know that but instead wants to call pac and fmj out but then cherry pick

    I am still a Khan fan but I selected the 'because he's cherry picking bums/ avoiding brook' option because I am finding myself being turned off him.

    For me I think it was somewhere between when he faught Scott Lawton and Graham Earl.

    Think it was Scott Lawton, his entrance song (not his introduction - his entrance) started with someone announcing him taking his "next step towards being world champion" which I thought was poor sportsmanship. But Lawton seemed to be having some success before coming to a complete stop and turning into a punch bag.

    I was still a fan but starting to think it was time to step up. Then I think it was either Graham Earl or Michael Gomez where he looked about 10 years younger, a stone heavier and about 6 inches taller, and I just grew tired of the mismatches.

    I know some people will say he was still new to the pro game but for me that was when I got a bit tired of the hype. Scroll forward a few years and most times he has stepped up it has gone badly…. And his recent choices at WW show no signs of him fighting the best available… so for me nothing has changed. If it does I would happily become a fan again but I doubt it will.

    From a Boxing Perspective I'm a massive fan. I struggle to think of a more entertaining fighter especially from these shores but the whole Kell Brook situation has really bothered me. He's stopped UK fans seeing a showdown that in my opinion has better potential than Froch Groves, he's played down Brooks achievements and when Kell did finally win his world title on foreign soil he's still not interested.
