    There is a saying in UK " Better late than Never" ... that does NOT apply here ...

    Signing the contract would help.

    On the basis of the OP's logic, I could draft a contract for my neighbour's Merc, sign it and drive off as its new owner...

    Nah, too late for me to give a ****.

    I'll probably watch it, but this is a fight that would have been huge on a world title scale.

    Now it's average on a domestic scale.

    Both Khan and Brook should've put their respective egos to one side and made the fight happen in 2015 or 2016 while it was still worth making.

    Apparently Khan still has to sign, so the fight is by no means a done deal. Then there's the trifling issue of which weight it'll take place at. Let's say Khan digs his heels in and demands that the fight be made at 147: does Brook want the fight with Khan so badly that he'll boil himself down to 147 in order to make it happen?

    If it happens it happens.

    It's taken so bloody long now I've forgotten who I originally fancied/wanted to win.

    And now if I'm totally honest I don't really care.

    Weight?

    If Khan can drain him down to 147 he'll win, just has to be careful early doors.

    Not even sure Brook can make 147 it will absolutely destroy him.

    I think this fight might happen cause what else is Khan going to do?

    Pacquiao fight is dead now cause he retired. He has zero chance of a Spence fight. There's nothing else at 147/154 other than Brook and it's stupid for him to try 160. It all makes sense for this fight to happen.
