    Khan has too much speed and his experience at the top level seriously outweighs Kells. If Senchenko can put Kell on ***** street, Khan can certainly stop him late on.

    I don't think Khan can stop Brook with a headshot. Well, I think he could with a bodyshot like he did against Maidana.


    Carson Jones fought at light middleweight and was a big stocky welter. Just because he's lost a lot doesn't mean he is some total bum.

    Kell Brook's fitness wasn't right in the first Carson Jones fight. I think now he has a much better world class training regime with a better overall diet. I could tell he definitely improved his stamina after that fight.

    He probably added some new movements to his workout and combined his strength days with his cardio days. It would have greatly improved his endurance.

    I do think Khan obviously has the speed which could be the main factor in this fight.

    I know styles make fights but if you look at the competition. Porter was on a Julio Diaz level with a few positives to lift him higher a bit.

    I think Porter would be beaten by Khan comfortably with very few awkward moments for Khan.

    I think Brook would have comfortably neutralized Alexander with some ease but perhaps not a 12 - 0 shutout.


    The one advantage Khan has is speed but great timing will beat it.

    The thing which makes me wonder is Brook's power. He hurt Porter a few times whilst throwing one shots. He hits harder than Khan i think.


    The way i see it is possibly a mid to late knockout win for Brook only if Khan tries to slug it out.

    I expect a lot of clinching. It's hard to call. Khan has the elite level speed going for him.

    People say Kell smoked Jones in there second fight, in truth Kell struggled from round 4 till he got that very premature stoppage from ref Alexanda

    regarding kell, the first fight against jones was his first real gut check, after that we know he can go to the well and still get the win when things werent going his way. without that fight i don't think he would have beat porter. and yeah, he didnt perform great against the guy, everyone has bogeymen!

    khan probably does have the edge over brook now, with the elite-level experience, him growing into the welterweight division and with brook suffering that injury, no one knows how much that will have affected him until we actually see him fight... still, would be a great fight, i hope there's a trilogy!

    He would win but Brook would give a better fight than Alexander.

    Cant see Brook hurting him but he will win a few rounds but Khan speed will be the major difference and is what will get Khan the victory

    The fight will happen but only after Khan loses to Floyd so they can bring him back to the UK and sell it of as a huge domestic fight

    All i have to say on the matter is..
    Timing is Speeds Kryptonite and Kell Brooks Best Assest is his timing.
    When i think of this fight I just can't see it going any other way than a mid to late rounds TKO for brook.

    Once Khan does hes trademark pointless speedy start after four rounds he will slow down and with Amirs Pride the wembley crowd will no doubt boo him which will make him try and KO brook for sure. Which just leaves brook an opening to land a chocolate brownie.

    Sorry Speed and Khan Lovers but I can't see it going any other way.

    He did look very good, I was suprised that he seems to have actually gotten even faster.

    Hunter is definitely a good match for Khan, he's showing improvement.

    I still favour Brook to beat him, too accurate and powerful, that and the aforementioned timing...not to mention that jab.

    didn't look it to me. Maybe it was the contrast. I actually expected Alexander to be a little quicker than Khan, he looked lightning fast himself at 140.

    Khan beats brook easily? Hahahahaah

    Brook has one of the hardest cleanest jabs in the division, it's like a hydraulic ram. Brook would buzz Khan with the jab easily, possible even drop Khan if he times is as Khan rushes in.

    Khan has fast hands, but slow feet. Khan still looked amateurish to me at times with his rushing in and fast combos. Khan hasn't got the power to hurt brook. Brook definately has the power and accuracy to KO Khan.

    Khan looked like he handled the 12 rounds easily so his conditioning is probably better then brooks, but guys for **** sake, Khan is still very easy to hit. Brook has good power in both hands, he will land ALOT on Khan...

    Brook mid round stoppage

    I can't wait for the fight, I know Khan will be a huge favourite and brook will be lovely odds

    khans conditioning seems a lot better at 147
    seems to handle 12 rounds comfortably

    seems to have a lot more better shots under his belt under virgil too
    i see him catching brook with some good hooks and body shots

    brook for me personally doesn't seem to do too much, seems to be more of just a 1-2 fighter, but does have ok timing and decent power

    i see khan constantly backing him up and neutralising brooks jab

    Khan seems to have gone up a level. he looked big in the ring, and it is not just speed it is the movement and all round ring confidence.
