Is Khan vs Brook a true 50/50 fight?

It's clearly not that predictable as both fighters are shop worn. I think Khan has negotiated the dynamics more in his favour with the catchweight. i can't really decide myself due to too many variables. I would like Brook to win but I think he maybe more shot than Khan at this point in time.

 

I'd favor Khan by 55/45.. maybe a stretching 60/40.

 

In terms of who people are picking, close to it. However a one sided demolition job wouldn't shock many on the night.

The only thing I'm confident won't happen, is i don't think it'll be a stinker

 

For me yeah, I really don't know who can be more damaged at this point and who have more chin.

 

I think Brook lays him out personally.

 

Brook boiled down to 147 and was badly hurt (knocked out?) by a Crawford jab. And that was awhile ago. 149 ain't gonna benefit him.

Khan might actually be more durable.

 

Historically I would've said Brook stops him brutally. I think at this point Brook is more declined than Khan though. I'd say that brings my position to this being a 50/50 fight as previously I would've had it 80/20 in favor of Brook.

I sure hope Brook destroys him though...........then they both retire

 

It's 50/50 because there's no way to tell who's more shot and neither is visibly out of shape.

 

For me its all down to how Brook made the weight. If he's been near 149 for a few weeks, he could easily crack Khans china. But if hes boiled down late like he did last time out and looks gaunt again, Khan could easily do what Crawford did.

A true 50/50 for me at this point... Really looking forward to it.

 

Kell looks old and drawn to me... I don't think he's great at the weight. His power will still be able to hurt and stop Khan but it's how long he waits to pull the trigger than could be the key.

i think Khan will win but it's a very 50/50 fight

 

In their primes Brook I think was better and should have been favourite but Khan probably would of been the bookies favourite due to his popularity.

Now it's 50/50 because both are way past their best, Brook will be weight drained and has never been the same since GGG.

 

It wasn’t always a 50/50 but it is now. I used to strongly favour Brook but the closer we get to the fight, the more I think Khan will blow him away

 

Khan has always been a bit chinny - more that he leaves his chin in the air and get's caught flush too often.

But Kell's punch restsitance against Crawford seemed TOTALLY gone - first solid jab and he was in a shell.

It's annoying, I don't want to see this fight based on principle, but I actually think the grudge element might squeeze one last decent huazzah from both fighters.

But i'm picking Khan by TKO some point around 8/9 - I don't think Kell has the mental fortitude after those orbital fractures

 

Exactly. After the fight we might know who would win 10/10 times but right now it's anyone's guess.
