Hope this isnt a re-post but I couldnt see it anywhere, seems the war of words between Brook and Kahn have exploded on twitter. I used to like kahn and up untill a week ago I wanted him to win the rematch with Lamont. My opinion has completely canged about him now. This just convinced me. By James Slater: In yet more Twitter feuding between two top name boxers, Amir Khan and the unbeaten Kell Brook have been exchanging insults on the platform. Khan has been so angered by the comments of Brook and his promoter Eddie Hearn (Brook saying he will KO Khan and make him do that silly dance again) that he has vowed to never box him now. For a while now, Team-Brook have been calling out Khan, the former WBA/IBF 140-pound champ - with Hearn and The Special One both declaring a destruction of Khan if the fight ever happens. The British public would like to see the fight, but Khan has unfinished business against Lamont Peterson to attend to. Khan has basically told Brook he is not in any way on his radar. Khan, who started off by reminding everyone that, A: he and Brook fight in different weight classes, and, B: Brook has not fought anyone in his class yet, went on to say: Kell Brook calling me a queen then begs me to give him a payday. For that quote, talk like a man instead of talking like a *****. I promise because of all his and Hearns bull**** - I will never give him a shot. Kell Brook doesnt deserve to the fight the king, ever. Ill never box him now. Please Kell Brook grow a dick. Eddie Hearn n Sky promising you Khan fight. Im promising u now it aint gonna happen ever. Im after the big boys .. Peterson, Marquez, Ortiz, Alexander, Mayweather all great fighters, Brook got along way to go, aint fought nobody. Khan sure sounds steamed! Of course, its common practice for an up-and-coming, emerging star of a talent to call out a bigger, more proven name. Brook is simply playing the game. Khan, though, does have bigger fish to fry; at least for now (things could change if Khan loses to Peterson for a second time). The word from Richard Schaefer is that if Khan can get revenge over Lamont Peterson on May 19th, he could bag that mega-fight with Money Mayweather next summer. With that kind of big deal on his mind, its little wonder Khan is not even thinking about Brook. At least he wasnt until earlier today, when he let loose with a tirade of insults, promises and vows. You can write it down: Amir Khan Vs. Kell Brook will never happen! Source: http://www.eastsideboxing.com/news.php?p=31397&more=1
I think he more scared of the big risk low reward fight, He rambles on about brook and him being in different weigh classes but goes on to say he wants to go after ortiz, mayweather etc..... what a joke
khan needs to get over himself and his ****ing ego and his obsession about giving everyone a ****ing payday. too big for his ****in boots.
i wonder why khan keeps mentioning brook. I wonder why he keeps making people listen to him about a possible future opponent I know, am pretty sure it's called promoting a future fight
It'll happen, especially when Brook picks up a world title and defends it a few times. There'll be too much money, and too much public demand for the fight to be made. Khan would lose the vast majority of his fanbase, British fans are different to Americans, they could never tolerate Khan refusing to make a fight like this, especially if both are world champions in the same division.
I dont think any country would tolerate that. Right now Khan is a world class fighter and Brook is a domestic level fighter. As soon as Brook gets a belt, the fight will be made.
Boxers of yesterday: "You insulted me. I'll fight you and knock you out!" Boxers of today: "You insulted me. I'll never ever fight you now!" This content is protected
True. I liked how y'all didn't tolerate Hatton not fighting Witter, especially when he was going around defending his WBC.
