    Very true, however, Khan is too much of a mental fruit to have anyone fooled. The few that are fooled are idiots of the first order.

    Looks like Cotto is the latest victim of Khan's twitter wrath. I wonder if he will give Cotto a 5 deal deadline to duke it out on twitter.

    why were lawyers brought in letters sent to the head of the wba and oscar telling khan you cannot avoid marcos any longer

    why not just take it without his hand being forced , why did that mando take years as salita took months :think:oops:


    khan said of marcos after thier fight{ its like he was really trying to hurt me in there } :lol: maybe he thought it was touch boxing :rofl

    Lol classic line
    Look nobody is denying he's a bit hollow up there at times. Remember his "know what I mean" interview
    But fact is he diD face maidana and he came out with the W
    Is he afraid of brook? I doubt it.. like farmboxer pointed out, he's just aching for the money mayweather money

    Fact of the matter is every boxer is afraid of another boxer in the same weight class and championship level. If you think kell brook is noT afraid of amir khan either your bordering naive my friend.
    Fighters strive off being afraid of their opponents in order to conquer them
    Afraid can cover a broad amount of things.. afraid to lose afraid to get out boxed etc etc I don't mean afraid in a cowardice sense

    Its an old trick, call out loads of names, beat your chest and when nobody answers your call, try to make it out everyone is ducking you.

    Mayweather isn't ducking Khan, neither is Cotto, theyre simply so high up on a mountain that they cant hear him and hes not good enough to climb to the top of that mountain. When he does climb up there, he gets knocked back down again.

    Kell Brook has done all but beg Khan for a fight, promised £5m and the belt on the table, no answer from Khan, but Brook is the one scared.

    Brooks last opponent beat the **** out of Khans last opponent.

    Why did Khan fight the loser of Alexander vs Porter?

    Why not fight the winner instead? Or better still why not fight the winner of Brook/Porter?

    I don't know why he fought the loser of the two, good question.
    He was supposed to fight alexander before he lost to porter but was chasing the money again
    Secondly a promise of 5 million from a promoters lips is hardly a contract carved in stone and I'm certain I read a few days after no such offer was ever formally made.

    And by afraid I think every fighter is afraid of their opponent in one sense or another
    If kell brook entered the ring thinking khan will be a breeze no respect no fear no nerves it can't be good. And that goes for any well respected opponent even jo jo dan.

    i think you have amnesia or are probably pretending to forget that khan called out bradley for years when they were fighting at 140, he even called him out after he beat alexander, check you're facts.
    why should he fight porter, what does fighting porter or maidana achieve at this stage both guys are coming off loses, he's already taken the risks coming up, why did brook have such a protected career for his last 32 fights before facing porter? thats kind of embarassing don't you think? and now he's fighting someone whos ranked outside the top 15:patsch. I thnk khan should fight brook its the fight that makes most sense and would easily earn him a shot at the winner of FMJ-Pac in a big unification fight, but khans team believe that if the lose in the states again they can fall back on that fight, because there will be an audience for it in england, thats why they don't seem all that interested at it.

    People still can't get it in their dumb heads Khan going after aging greats who don't have many fights left, Kell is still a young man and this fight even if Khan loses his next fight is still there, Mayweather got 2 fights left..

    Manny is not getting any younger too nor is Cotto , nor is JMM ..

    Get it..

    Mayweather & Pacquiao may be old but they still give anyone at 147 a hard time

    I didn't say they are easy but there is a time limit of them being around, if Khan can get a fight with one of them and beats them then he goes down in boxing history.. no disrespect to Kell but beating him won't do that..

    Boxing is about timing, Khan is at his peak his prime.. he got a good shot of beating anyone at 147..

    Khan seems happy to tread water waiting on Floyd or Pac. Considering the deal that Hearn os offering (£5m+) - he could be playing a dangerous game. The fight would be huge in the UK and, if Khan won, it would enhance his chances of getting Pac/Floyd.

    I think the pay-day he would get from Brook could eclipse, or certainly equal, the one he would get from the "bigger" fights.
