"It's going to have to be someone decent to keep me where I am, at the top. I could fight the winner of Brook v Porter, but I don't think it will happen. "I don't think Brook will take that fight as it is too tough for him. "Brook has a lot of confidence issues and he won't take that fight. And the war of words is back on :bbb
Porter is so hyped right now. He's being hyped as the 2nd coming of mike Tyson because he stopped a guy who couldn't spark a candle.
Brook has been a pro for ten years, that's a little longer than Khan, yet he still hasn't fought anyone of note. Brook can box, for sure, but I've long thought that there must be reasons why he hasn't stepped it up the last couple of years. Perhaps he does have confidence issues, who knows. Nonetheless, if he does duck Porter then where else can he go?
Was it against Carson Jones or against Hector Saldima that Kell Brook fought a IBF WW Eliminator or was it against both of them? Anyway, the guy is IBF nº1 contender and Porter's mandatory still, not to say that he skipped Devon Alexander or was ducked by Devon and Alexander lost it to Shawn Porter so he has to fight Porter anyway before Khan gets in there or somebody else like Dan Ion from Romania, Leonard Bundu from Italy, Paulie and Devon, Frankie Gavin from England, Yoshihiro Kamegai from Japan, Kevin Bizier from Canada, USA's Edward Paredes, Diego Chaves from Mexico, Antonin Decarie from Canada, Vyacheslv Senchenko from the Ukraine, Jan Zaveck from Eslovenia, Fredrick Lawson from Ghana and Ray Robinson from the States.
i want to see porter v thurman more. Khan should fight Brook . . . it would do huge numbers back home! it would possibly be the biggest payday after Floyd
Decent European title level fighter but not World class, which is why, after ten years as a pro, he hasn't fought anyone of note, fought numerous "title eliminator" only for these title fights to never materialise and openly ducked Alexander and Bradley.
