Ever heard of form? factors? Ever heard of ability proven and potential? Just because George Best is off form before the world cup doesn't mean you choose Alan Smith FFS.
I think Khan peaked a while ago whereas after his emphatic victory on Saturday, which was his first world class fighter, first World Title and all in the favoured fighters backyard, Brook is only going to get better and better. He's had Khan in his sights for a while and I'd favour him for the victory.
Brook would have to KO khan to win which is of course possible. Khan is by far the better boxer and if he keeps it at range and uses his speed I would make time 60/40 favorite to win on points. he was so well drilled into his new technic by hunter against Collazo then I can see him avoiding Kells big shots. Let's not forget that Kell himself isn't exactly James Toney or McCullough in the chin stakes but a KO win for Khan would be unlikely. I'm going to be putting Some money aside each month as I will be getting ringside seats if it's confirmed for May next year and if it's not it's either Khan gets the mAyweather fight which go I will go to instead as part of a holiday or one of them gets beat
I don't agree. Khan is fast but he's not better technically than Brook. Khan does one thing well. If it doesn't work you get the Peterson fight or the latter stage of the Maidana fight. He can't make adjustments. With him it's fast flurry, move away, reset the same fast flurry ad nauseum. That said, he looked very good against Collazo, I recall he got a bit of a ticking off in the corner though, it looked like he's settled with Hunter now but there were bad habits on display that hadn't been completely ironed out.
Mayweather is a smart guy. He should tell Khan to beat Brook to get the shot. This way there will be a huge Wembley fight leading up to the Mayweather fight and no matter who wins, Mayweather gets his British cash cow fight with even more hype.
