    What pisses me off more than anything is the fact that they think we should all pay for their retirement fund, **** that!!!

    They have obviously taken far to many hidings to think this is more than a main event support act at best!!

    If Brook wouldn't have sold his career to golovkin and Khan wouldn't have become Mr reality show I may have been a little interested but fact is both are taking the **** now

    I'm still up for watching it. Their ringside interview together was iconic. I miss that show.

    It'll do good numbers. Khan has the stanis and brook has the fairies.

    They deserve a nice fat testimonial pay cheque. As long as neither of them comeback.

    I wouldn't mind it as chief/only undercard for Fury v Joshua but other than that? Hmm

    Khan will say jump and Brook will say how high. Story of their lives. Fight is an absolute waste of time and has been for some time now. Khan never wanted to fight Kell, thinks he is shot enough for the fight to go ahead but I don’t think it sells particularly well. They will throw all the press conference antics to try and get a nibble from the public but if it’s DAZN it’s a flat fee, if it’s Sky PPV you don’t have the fans of Hearn buying it because he tells you too

    History will repeat itself. Khan will tease him and string him along and then fight someone else.

    Its been reported the stumbling block for Sky and DAZN is Khan wants at least $5million for the fight and Brook can have whatever as long as its not as much as Khans fee as he states he is the A side. Khan wants a flat fee guarantee and % of the PPV

    I think this fight may just not be made unless Khan comes down with his demands TBH. Seems brook is prepared to sacrifice the money a lot more to make the fight.

    Oh come on , who can begrudge him $5m , he's only trying to claw back some of the £11m he's spent on that derelict building he built !

    Used to think brook would smash Khan but I think Khan would beat brook now sadly

    I'd rather pay to see Joe Joyce do stand-up comedy
