    Per ESPN DR.

    This is a very inticing matchup one of the best outta of UK and at WW right now shaping up to be a good year. Think its a bit of a pick em fight both have there strength's and weaknesses if I had to guess I'd say Khan by decision due to experience unless Brook gets his respect early.


    Who you got if it comes off?

    Amazing fight. There is no way I'll miss this one. If Khan wins, then he definitely deserves a shot at the winner of Mayweather vs Pacquiao. He will finally be coming off a major win and will also have the IBF title.

    He should have been working on this fight long ago. Would have been awesome for this fight to be on the undercard.

    of mayweather pacquiao?

    No way would that ever happen man

    This is a mega fight in its own right

    They wouldn't put a mega fight on the undercard of a bigger mega fight

    Thats a waste

    As a fan I would be excited, but I understand why they wouldn't do something like that

    We're getting Lomachenko vs TBA and some Mayweather fighters on the undercard

    Which is pretty bad imo

    It should be better fights than that but expecting a mega fight on the undercard is unreasonable imo

    I agree that Khan probably edges it on points. He's improved a great deal under the tutelage of Virgil Hunter. But Brook is a very good fighter and Khan can't afford to underestimate him. He has previously derided Brook in the British media as an inferior fighter. I would love for Brook to win. He's definitely the more popular guy among UK fight fans. Khan's arrogance really rubs people up the wrong way.

    that would be one of the best domestic fight in years, up there with froch-groves II.
    let's hope brooks leg is OK.

    I hope it happens and I hope there is no controversy.
    Either guy could win a decision or by stoppage. A draw is also possible. Khan decision or Brook KO are probably the most likely outcomes. My guess is Khan will win by decision.

    Great fight. Brook carries some of the best power at 147 and is a very sharp and accurate counter puncher so its an extremely dangerous fight for Khan. A real pick em.

    I am excited for this fight if it really goes down! It will be the biggest fight domestically for the both of them, and should earn lots of money for both fighters. Hopefully it doesn't fall through over some nonsense.

    I actually got Brook beating Khan. But this is perfect. Winner of Mayweather-Pacquiao gets the winner of Brook-Khan. For the WBO, WBA, WBC, & IBF. Would be awesome.

    The winner on 5/2 is the best in the division.
