    Khan is a big 140 fighter and was always going to move up to 147... so I have NO IDEA what you're talking about.

    Ortiz would be far tougher for Khan than Brook would be.

    Agreed. You have to pressure Khan non-stop to beat him. Take him out of his comfort zone. He does great against guys that like to sit back and box/counter, unless your name is Floyd Mayweather you ain't beating Khan with that strategy.

    agreed, bu apparently brook makes ortiz quit, maybe it was his win over the highly touted future p4p star african zulu warrior phillip kotey that gave them this idea.,

    Exactly. Khan would have his moments against Brook because the fight would take place at mid to long-range. That's not to say Brook won't have success, either. Because I think he's got the speed and timing to neutralize Khan's offence, and the power to hurt him quite easily.

    If I was handling Khan, I'd have him face Brook way before I'd throw him in with Ortiz.

    Khan is not a big 140 fighter he is a tall 140 fighter in fact Rios Katsidas regularly weigh more than him fighting at light weight.
    Khan weighed at 149 against Peterson whilst he came in at 155.

    Yeah, this thing about Khan being a big 140-pounder that needs to move up 147 quickly, is a myth. He's just tall, has long arms, and has talked up his move to 147 to chase the money so much that he's convinced himself that that's where he as to be.

    The fact that Lamont outweighed him by 6 pounds and was throwing him around like a doll, suggests otherwise.

    I aint saying brook beats Khan but he def has the timing to counter Khan's speed. Personally I dont think there needs to be a rush for this fight. I would say November at the earliest but even 2013 would be fine.

    Brook really needs a big fight though. He needs a top 10 fighter and for me they have to try and get the winner from berto v ortiz.

    I'm saying Brook beats Khan, and it's weak as **** he won't fight him, bottom line.
