    Brook is known to British boxing fans.

    Khan is known to Casual boxing fans worldwide.

    That's all she wrote

    Khan would get the bigger purse here. Bigger name, has won more and beaten much better fighters than Brook has.

    Mainly because half of Belfast travelled over to support McCloskey.

    I would give Khan £2.50 and that's being generous, Khan has been exposed as the **** fighter he is, giving him loads of money won't help him or improve him, it would just fuel his deluded ego.

    He's a ****ing arrogant sappy ****.

    all depends what happens between now & then.
    but naturally khan's ego will feel he's the "superstar!"

    If Brook wins the IBF title and Khan looks shaky in his next fight or two and with Brook's growing popularity and Khan's declining popularity for me it should be split 50/50 or Brook as champ to get a higher share

    You have to ask yourself,"how likely is it that this fight will happen anytime soon?" Not very IMO, the seeds have started to be sewed, though.

    If the fight happened tomorrow, I'd give Brook 65 Khan 35, because Khan needs Brook more than Brook needs Khan, at this moment in time anyway.

    If your scenario were to come true, although I think Khan will fight McCloskey first, then a 50-50 split would be fair, as I'd expect this fight to be big bucks and Matchroom with Sky, bringing more to the table.

    Winner gets 60 .... Khan wouldn't dare agree to it though

    Realistically...it should be 60/40 to Khan.
