    Me too. I'm much more interested in a brook v Spence fight. Big Brook fan but I hope the IBF don't do some deal and allow Brook to keep his belt and fight Khan.

    If brook fights Khan he needs to vacate the belt.

    The IBF are very strict. Not a chance Kell will get to keep his belt.

    Anyway the way khan is talking here it won't be happening spring time as he wants a tune up in April first.

    But didn't khan say brook is a tune up fight
    But for his tune up I think it should be Porter or Jones not world class and pretty average according to khan and his fans
    But we all know he aint brave enough to prove his claim

    This is where I'm confused. Khan is saying he wants a warm up and the fight later in the year which would mean probably September. So what does Brook do before then?

    Hearn is saying they hope to announce the fight mid-late January. Seems to be far to early to announce a fight which will take place Aug-Sept.

    I don't think this fight will happen, it's just Khan blowing smoke as per usual. The guy has never had any interest in facing Brook.

    Due to the fact that you rate Eubank Jnr so highly, most genuine boxing fans consider your opinion on any boxing subject completely irrelevant.

    Try harder dumbf**k.

    In Hearn's extended interview today he's said that Spence is fighting Jeff Horn in March due to Brook's medical suspension, leaving the door open for Brook to fight Khan in April/May and then Spence later on in the year.

    Seems to have worked out really well for both fighters if these fights happen.

    I believe Brook is a better P4P fighter but Eubank is much bigger.

    Is that confirmed though? Is it not possible Brook vacates and Spence fights Horn for the title?
