    Canelo would absolutely lose to that version of " The Special One "

    Errol Spence?

    Ehh.. Now thats a different story...

    Brook shouldn't keep yapping about Khan and fighting bums if he and his fans are accusing Khan of doing the same thing?

    Alexander, Algieri and Collazo all go 3-0 vs, Dan, Bizier and Gavin and I think you would even agree with that?

    I agree with some of the stuff you said, I think Brook will not take any of the fights you mentioned except Khan as they are just too risky for him. He will probably chase Cotto and Canelo after he gets back. He smashes Khan to bits though, Amir is now a high level journey man, the moment he gets in there with a big puncher I'm predicting they smoke him.

    Khan is a live dog against Brook and he will win if he doesn't get koed,

    Khan's chin is shot to bits now but he beats Brook to the punch more often than not

    Nobody said Brook was ducking Khan.

    But Brook is even worse than Khan for taking easy fights and looking for pay days

    Tbh most are Khan has a stacked resume and he's a warrior, he doesn't want to give Brook a pay day that is all.

    Theres no need for a rematch. It doesnt make sense for one.

    But Brook proved to the whole world he does not fear Triple G 1 bit .

    So I would not be surprised at all if i hear Kell calling out Triple G again for a second crack.

    It would not shock me.

    Brook would probably kill Spence but I would rather see him beat Canelo which would be pretty easy for him.

    What you mean like Khan kept yapping about Mayweather?

    Ok, let's just say Brooks record and resume is awful compared to Khans, well Khans record and resume is awful compared to Mayweathers but Khan believed he was deserving of that fight and was talking about Mayweather in every interview for well over two years.

    So its OK for Khan to chase fights but it isn't for Brook?

    The fact is a Brook Vs Khan fight would be a career high payday for both and should be a very natural and easy fight to make but Khan don't want it. He has no intention of fighting Brook, you can't call it anything other than a duck, it's a duck.

    Khan thought he was being clever fighting Canelo, he avoided being cornered in to a Brook fight and got paid well (not great), stepped up 8lb to 155 and got knocked out, a brutal KO but he got praise for his bravery. Khan tried to make it in to a situation where he couldn't lose but he has long term.

    Khan said Brook was bluffing, mouthing off and would never fight Golovkin at 160 and if he did he would get completely destroyed. Well Brook stepped up 13lb and fought the man Canelo avoided and many others are avoiding, Brook was never off his feet and gave it a go, yes he lost but he came out of that with far more credit than Khan got for being sparked by Canelo and Brook took a far bigger risk.

    There is no denying that Brook is at this moment in time is far more relevant than Khan.

    I give Khan a 20% he hasn't looked good for two years, I mean he really struggled with Algeri (who's outside the top 10). Khan will beat anyone to the punch he's got amazing speed but he's got poor defence, his too brave when he gets cracked and has one of the worst chins at the top level.

    Brook has enough skill power and chin to have a good chance against any 154er. I dont think he makes 147 again. I see him chasing after HBO fighters Canelo and Cotto. Khan vs Brook is Kells dream fight. Hope it will happen. Someday

    I think he will do fine at 154. How he looked against GGG may have been because GGG let him tee off just a little bit. But, nobody can argue that he proved he has a very good chin. Taking some of the shots GGG landed without crumbling, he will be able to handle anything he sees coming at 154.

    I don't think he should attempt to make 147 again unless it's a UK superfight against Khan. After that, 154, he will be a contender/champion there.

    "He will win if he doesn't get koed"

    Yeah I agree, Khan will win if he doesn't lose.
