    Agreed. But would he also be drained at 150? Seems like just a guess work.
    But what about back in 2014? I wonder what the result would have been back then.

    It wouldn't.. I just watched Brook fight Evenish with the best ww out there who's a total beast in Spence. That brook destroyed any khan there's ever been and ever would be.

    There's never been a fight that brook was "drained" at ww. He's always been a bigger ww compared to them these days but never too big for ww.

    Stop the excuses, brook can still easily make ww, the reason he won't is because Spence rules that division now

    You realize Brook Spence wasn't at WW?

    Brook fought bums at the WW limit before he starting doing all these odds CW's.

    The last time Brook made 147 was against Porter and he was drained and had dropped muscle mass. That's 4 years ago. 33/34 year old Brook as opposed to 28 year old Brook IS NOT making that weight and if he does he will suffer.

    I can pretty much guarantee you he would not do 147 for Khan and if he does Khan will have his way with him.

    I’m sure I seen interviews where Brook says he’d made 147 for the “right fights” .. ie the Khan fight

    I’d be hoping for a Brook win but Khan is still a good quality boxer despite his chin. Maidana couldn’t stop him..

    BTW....Kell wants a size advantage over Khan in the fight. Thats why he has wanted the fight for so long.

    Kell started at 147lbs

    Khan started at 135lbs

    Kell could have moved up years ago but stuck around waiting to fight a naturally smaller guy. No wonder Khan does not want to concede any advantage to this joke.

    If Khan was not around, Kell would be exposed for the joke he really is; 14 year pro career, stepped up 3 times, stopped twice and won an arguable decision in the other.

    The rest of it is filled with Jojo Dan, Kevin Bizier and Euro bums.

    Tell me I'm wrong.

    Kell should take Khan to the ground and wrap up an Ezekiel choke when Khan's on ***** street trying to cling on for dear life.

    How anyone can slate Break as a bully is beyond me. He faced Porter at his most feared(nobody wanted that fight), faced Golovkin when nobody wanted to face him then went back down and took on another guy nobody wanted to face in Spence. Going way back even he rematched Jones who a lot of people thought was robbed in the first fight. Boxing needs more guys like him.

    To quote Dr Strange "I have looked forward in time, I saw 14,000,605 futures"
    "In how many of those did Amir Khan beat Kell Brook?"
    "One"

    He was slow to step up, but he did.
    He got stabbed after the Porter fight. Then came Jo Jo as the IBF mandatory. Brook then wanted to stay active and had a quick return fight vs Gavin. After that Brook was scheduled to fight Chavez but suffered an injury.
    Then came another horrible IBF mandatory in Bizier.
    After that negotiations with Vargas failed and Brook stepped up to Golovkin and Spence.

    Injuries and BS mandatories cost Brook a lot.
