    Khan wants to fight in december, we've got Kell Brook who will probably make his 1st defense around then & we've already got the likes of Thurman saying he'll come over to the UK to challenge, so how about a US vs UK card involving:

    Khan vs Alexander
    Brook vs Guerrero
    Macklin vs Kid Chocolate/Daniel Jacobs

    PPV worthy?

    Not PPV worthy, but decent fights.

    Nice line up. But do you really expect choco kid to fight someone as high risk/low reward as Macklin?
    That has to be Macklin vs Jacobs then.

    I'd expect sky tv to put up the majority of the cash, Khan & Brook are very popular fighters so there'll be no problems shifting tickets just really depends if they deem it worthy for ppv in the UK.

    That card is definitely exciting, I'll be looking forward to Brook vs Guerrero the most. However, I don't see Brook fighting again this year, he already fought twice and will most likely take rest of the year off.
