    Quite frankly, Hearn should just throw Khan in there with Brook, with no warm up, anything else would be too risky.:lol: Why risk devaluing the match any more than its already has been. Do any of you think the demand will still be there if Eggington violently KO's Khan?

    If he chooses Skeete or Mimoune it could be. Neither can break an egg but I could see them managing to frustrate and outbox a rusty, overconfident, under-trained Khan.

    True. Ezekiel also handed out an ultimatum - they square off in 2018, or never.

    Of course, it sours the deal if he loses to Rabchenko as well, and that isn't completely impossible.

    I think its pretty close to impossible, if Rabchenko is anywhere close to his Tony Harrison or Mundine form he loses decisively, probably by KO. Brook looked damn good against GGG and Spence, an argument could be made that Brook swept the first 6 rounds against Errol, and I doubt Rabchenko can touch him enough to inflict that much damage to his eye before taking a ton of damage himself, and he's not going to KO Kell outright.

    I'm worried about Kell, though...preexisting tissue damage and while he did look good versus Golovkin and Spence it ultimately may have cost him more than it was really worth to come through with a couple of "A for effort" L's and loads more wear & tear..

    Its a possibility, but I doubt Brook's skills have eroded in the least, even though his skin may be flimsy, the likelihood of a fairly one dimensional guy like Rabchenko isn't the man for the job. It'll take a guy on Spence or Golovkin's level to inflict that kind of one punch damage to get that particular job done, and thankfully Kell took off a ton of time, hopefully his skin and bones have recovered enough for that not to be an issue this time around, if Margarito and Vargas' faces held up in their last few outings, aside from the recent Jones match, which was a headbutt, I'm pretty sure Kell's will.

    Does anyone think that Khan Prescott II would be the perfect comeback fight for Khan? What better way for Khan to re-launch his career than to take revenge on the first man to crack him? The 10 year anniversary of that is coming up in September!

    I hope to god that Greco picture is just a horrible photoshop job and not an accurate representation of the size of his head. If it's real, Khan's next reality TV adventure could be Big Brother, and they could hold it inside Lo Greco's massive skull.

    Khan vs Broner would be a good fight for both at this stage.

    Yes, true. I don't know, good luck to Eddie fixing this guy up. He just has to prop up enough wins to make that Brook fight.

    I really want to see the Prescott rematch, just imagine the drama of the lead up to that now in 2018. I mean we know Prescott hasn't exactly gone on to super stardom since his KO of Khan nearly a decade ago. He's lost a lot of fights but he's fought solid competition his entire career. And while most would expect Khan to make easy work of Prescott at this point, it still would be intruging to see how Khan would handle that first round, and what the fight would actually look like since the first fight ended within a minute.

    What if it actually turned into a dramatic fight like what if Khan really made it a point to knock out Prescott or something. Honestly a Prescott rematch could be as dramatic as anything we've ever seen in boxing. Just in terms of the mental preparation for it. For Khan it's a chance to really shake off those bad memories from that night, to right the wrong so to speak. And For Prescott well he would get himself a pretty big payday by rematching Khan, and just imagine if he could get Khan in trouble again. I mean this would be a scary fight for Khan and Khan's fans, I dunno just to see Prescott and Khan at the press conferences and stuff that would be intense man.
