    This forum is mental sometimes!

    Billy is right, that show was awful.
    Khan was a better boxer than Brook in his prime. Brook fought complete nobodies 95% of his career. Went life and death with Carson Jones!

    Hardly a shock for Billy to praise Ricky Burns is it. Ricky wasn’t as good as Marquez obviously but Broner? Maybe. Broner is a guy that throws less than an old Bernard Hopkins, not unlikely that Burns could beat him on workrate alone.

    Before broken jaw yes he had a chance but never the same after that injury and new trainer.

    Did u see Eddie doing the interview after the JF fight and saying Jonny was the biggest ticket seller since Hatton and that he wasn't just a ticket seller he was a top prospect, he struggled to keep a straight face.

    I know it's early days for Fisher, but Warrington could shift a few tickets.

    He sells more than Fisher at this point.
    Maybe if JF gets to headline his own card in London then he'll do more than Josh but atm it's Josh.

    Brook was battered by Carson Jones in his 28th fight.

    Khan was battered by Prescott in his 16th fight. Slight difference regarding experience. Anyone can be taken out like that to be fair. Khan should have lost to Limond a fight or two before that in all honesty.

    Khans career dwarves Brooks. Brook after 43 fights likely classes Khan as his signature win, khan who was absolutely shot to pieces (people will say the Porter win, that fight was more boring than fury v wlad) Khan beat an absolute prime Maidana, the guy nobody including myself thought he would go anywhere near. Guys like malignaggi, Kotelnik,Judah, Peterson, Garcia etc we’re all big fights yet Brook stays in the UK fighting mandatories.

    For the record I don’t dislike either fighter I like them both now. Years ago I hated Khan and wanted him to get KOd every fight.

    I just remember when Josh was coming up in the ranks it felt like every fight he was on felt like a Leeds United away day. If a fighter actually supports a football club they can really draw the fans in as resource. Fisher interestingly doesn't have that football fan allegence, feels more like friends, family and his local community.

    Khan was a light welter.

    He only ended up at welterweight because he's low iq and not dedicated to the life.

    Do you work for Matchroom or are you a fan of the company, Trafford? Not being funny, genuine question.
