    When did Khan adjust?

    He did the exact same thing round for round. (Basically running around)

    Algieris reach and height advantage? he never even used that against Khan. If anything he abandoned those advantages and instead fought as a pressure fighter.

    Who has spence beat for you to say 'it would be a massive step up' stop talking rubbish.

    You didn't clear up a division if you got knocked out and lost on points.

    He doesn't need khan to make it big at all, theres fights out there for brook too to make a big name for himself.. thurman marquez etc...

    Spence is alot better than gavin or jo jo Dan so fighting him would be a step up in class

    Try telling brook there other fighters than khan, as brook has been begging khan for a fight for 5 odd years

    Khan gives away tickets for his non PPV fights, the lad is hardly known in the states

    When fighting in the states Frampton does, Khan does in the states when he is the main event and in Sheffield

    Is Collazo a real welter then Keith? Gave Khan so much **** about not fighting 'real welterweights' then goes and fights Collazo. Thurman well and truly has his head up his own ****.

    There's a difference with khan asking floyd for a fight as he's top of cream were as brook has been begging khan for a fight even when khan was 140

    Fact is if Khan don't get Floyd, then ANYBODY at 147 is an option..

    Khan knows if he can't Floyd, it HAS to be a meaningful fight next..

    And I will be the first one on here to criticse him if it isn't..

    But I'm pretty sure it will be, Thurman, Brook, or Bradley let's go..

    Numerous US journalists have said that comps (free tickets) are given away for Khan fights. And as per Fat Dan and the Nevada Estate Athletic Commission Khan only sold 3,500 tickets for Alexander with 3k comps.

    Khan and his PR team are the ones fooling everyone claiming he's known and a draw in the states

    This thread is funny full of double standards, anything amir khan does will get cursed where as you have thurman who is fighting collazo will not get dissed coz he is flavor of the month,

    then you have brook who has thought 1 decent fight in his whole career and he is the new calzaghe, people are sayin brook vs cane lo would be a close fight? You having a laugh you think brook would want anypart of canelo?
