It will do alright in the UK and a few other places. It's not a relevant fight at this point but it's a decent UK scrap. I would have favoured Brook but seeing as the last time I saw him he looked like he was 200 lbs. it might be a struggle to get down to 149 at this point. Both have looked quite vulnerable in recent years although Brook was pretty solid untill he fought GGG. which I think was the biggest mistake of his career. It's a pickum but I would like Brook to win as Khan ducked him for years.
Yeah I feel the same way I lean towards Brook but I see the weight as being a problem for him as I think it was when he fought Crawford. Brook was actually doing ok the first few rounds until Crawford caught him with what didn't really appear to be a big shot. Then again Khan has not had to make weight in a few years so he might also struggle although Brook is notoriously the bigger man. If the fight was at 154 I wouldn't hesitate to pick Brook. I read it is 100K per pound he comes over. If he is getting 7 figures maybe it is worth losing 200 or 300K which he could make up getting a fight with Benn if he wins.
Meanwhile I don't think Josh Taylor V Ramirez was even picked up in the UK .. though I could be wrong.. says everything that. UK here. I have Zero interest in this fight. Casuals are easy to market to though I guess.
Khan is going to flatten Kell then Fury is going to penetrate Whyte a few weeks after then a few more weeks AJ will be pronounced missing in action.
Actually Fury will lose to Whyte. Kell Brook will KO Khan. And AJ and Hearn are gonna serve Usyk a big British dinner to get those titles back.
Shell Brook was badly wobbled by a Crawford jab his last time out. With Shell Brook looking like a fat ass these days, he's gonna kill himself making 149. A Mere Con might actually be more durable.
Yeah that's how I feel. 154 and Brook is good to go it's just at the recent presser with Khan he looked like he'd been on the Mars Bars. Khan's has always looked like he doesn't put too much weight on so I think will be less of an issue for him. The Benn fight would be a pretty good follow up I think. Ben is still pretty green but he's fresh and hungry and would and should stop either of them considering there both pretty shop worn at this point.
Khan hasn't fought since 2019, he will have had a nearly 3 year layoff when he gets back in the ring.
