    True Khan looks massive at 147.. But I think the IBF 10lbs rehydration rule was in effect for Kell.

    first time I'm hearing about a rehydration rule.... you may be right, but then how was porter 158 lbs last night? That would violate that rule.

    For me this is the old levels within levels cliche.

    Kell has announced himself on the World stage and I was happy to see him win.

    That said I believe Khan would do a job on Brook and would stop him, Khan is a class above Brook in my eyes.

    Brook still has a bit more to prove for me but he's certainly earned his shot against Amir.

    Bring it on!!

    I did hear about the rule last night somewhere can't remember now.. But the IBF weigh you the next morning the weights last night were taken by showtime.

    That's my understanding..

    The Khan that beat Collazo would destroy Brook. Period. Apart from Mayweather, at 147 lbs, nobody beats Khan anymore.

    I hope Frankie can get in the mix, too. Three great domestic fights to be made.

    50/50 whether it's a Brook win on points or a Brook win by KO, no way it's 50/50.

    Reminds me of that last '50/50' fight between Groves and Froch :D

    TRust me this will be ridiculously easy for Brook.

    Collazo is rated no.36 in the world.

    Brook and Porter were Ring's no 4 and 5.

    It is a 10% rule you inbred not a 10lbs rule.:patsch:patsch

    You can rehydrate up to 15 lbs above 147

    I actually favour Brook he is why.

    He has much higher ring IQ. I mean did anyone see the American feed when they interviewed Kenny Porter and he said the plan was to clinch and beat up Brook. What THEY were surprised with was how good and Strong Brook was inside. They didnt think he would spoil and initiate clinches so much and being effective inside. HE said he never saw that game from Brook in any fights that threw Porter off his game and sapped his energy as their tactic was for them to bully him inside and throw him around. But Brook was more powerful than they thought.

    So if brook can take Khan inside and outside i think Brook has more "ways" to beat khan. Khan has no inside game and DOESNT like inside fighters who can command and clinch.

    'There shall be a second day weigh-in on the morning of the event. The promoter of the
    event shall arrange for the use of the scale at the prearranged time and location for the
    second day weigh-in. At this weigh-in, boxers cannot weigh more than ten (10) pounds
    over the weight limit. If a boxer weighs more than ten (10) pounds over the weight limit,
    he will have two (2) hours thereafter to make the prescribed weight. If after two (2)
    hours he still weighs more than ten (10) pounds over the weight limit, the fight cannot
    proceed as a championship bout. If the Champion fails to appear for the second day
    weigh-in, the title will be vacated. If the Challenger fails to appear for the second day
    weigh-in, the fight may be staged with the understanding that the Champion shall retain
    his title whether he wins or loses the bout'




    There you go ******..

    Khan fighting at welterweight is his natural weight.

    We got another Manny Charr before a loss etc.


    What happened lightweight up is an oxy.
