If Khan loses to Peterson, would that possibly make a Khan/Brook fight more likely?

    Brook doesn't need Khan if Peterson beats him in the rematch.

    It would still make a lot of money as a fight though in the UK.

    Just my opinion, but I think a loss would make Khan more open to offers.

    If Khan loses to Petersen, he MUST retire

    People will see it as a backward step for Kell if he's fighting Amir on a losing streak. If he beat Khan, he wouldn't get a lot of credit. Brook needs to challenge someone with a World Title asap.

    Money talks and holding a title nowadays doesn't mean too much.

    no wonder none of y'all are boxing managers ...if khan loses a kell brook fight is sooner than later . Khan & his career dictates when they'll fight.

    i personally think if the vegas judges are fair ...khan will lose again in a close fight/much like the 1st fight.

    Less likely IMO.

    Damaged goods if he gets beat, he can kiss goodbye to GB, HBO, and any chance of Floyd or Kell IMO.

    The retire or damaged goods attitude is totally wrong

    For me mate, if Khan gets beat vs Peterson then its not a fight for Kell in any other terms than a Brit match up and a big pay day from a stadium bout.

    Lets have it right lads, Khan still has to move up so if he does move up and Kell is his first fight at WW then fair play to Khan cos its a very tough fight for a first at the weight IMO.

    Khan won't fight Kell for a bit yet due to the fact Khan has everything to lose especially if he loses to Peterson.

    Come on, you can't tell me that Kell wouldn't benefit from having a true world-class fighter on his record. Beating Matthew Hatton is a nice step between domestic/euro and world-class, but it's not a world-class opponent.

    Khan has faced and beaten better than Kell, so even if he did lose to Peterson, it's a natural fight for the lisping lancer.

    Beat me to it.

    FFS Brook has beaten Matthew Hatton, N'Dou (an old one at that) and Euro level Pole. Now all of a sudden Brook wouldn't need Khan.

    Chill the **** out.
