    He has the belt and doesn't need to give Khan anything to be honest if Khan doesn't take the Brook fight he will regret it as no one will watch him

    Why would he????

    Do think for a second that Keith Thurman is gonna turn down 6 mil+ to go to the UK to tear Khans head off his shoulders.

    Khan did what a lot of people said he would, the question now is; what is Brook gonna do.

    A mere con living up to his moniker.

    I'd watch him. His last fight had a highlight reel finish!

    I doubt that Khan and Brook are ducking one another. They both have egos and both think they deserve the larger percentage of the split and won't give in to the other.
    However, both are definitely ducking Errol Spence. No doubt.

    Khan can handle losing against anyone other than a fellow UK fighter.

    Khan would probably retire if Spence beat Brook and Thurman beats Garcia.

    No way he beats either of them.

    There are very few fighters where I'd say A is frightened to fight B
    but this is one of those occasions. Khan is completely frightened
    of what Kelly would do to him in the ring. Damn shame

    Where are you getting the numbers from? Who is putting up $6 mil for Thurman or Garcia to come here? Not a chance!!

    Fair enough watching Khan be sparked out is better than watching Manny vs cotto

    Amir Khan is a Glass Jawed joke. This is one of the most clear and blatant ducks in boxing history.

    khan's a bigger draw than Brook, because people love watching him get sparked out!

    Garcia aint winning that fight.
    If he was intended to, Porter woulda gotten the rightful nod.
    They aint gonna rob Thurman.
    And they'd get that type money to come to the UK and fight on PPV.

    Hes coming off a soul snatcher KO... have no problem him fighting Vargas as a comeback fight.
