    Both recentlly had a fight recently, both looked arguably bad, both have hype around them.

    Kell,


    Khan was knocked out by a fighter who really wasnt that good and it was a bad knockout.

    Khan may give us some more entertaining fights and beat some sound opponents, but I'm sure he will get KO'd again in his career. He seems to follow his instincts when he gets in trouble, he needs to have a small break from boxing. Not to sure how far Brook will go his last fight, I think that's the kind of contest that will make him stronger.

    Khan will be in more big fights than Brook he will probably win some and lose some but because his fight are exciting the US networks will keep putting him on where as when Kell brook suffers his defeat the bubble will burst

    I don't think kell brook is destined for much greatness either after his last fight, fringe contender, maybe hold a strap at some time, that's about it.

    i can tell you garcia is much better than carson jones.

    kell could have a better career if he steps up and shows what he can do against better opposition. but it will be tough. to surpass khans acheivments.

    khan is more talented clearly and has acheived a lot by the age of 25. his biggest negatives are he has been KTFO twice brutally.

    but he has many positives going for him too

    I disagree. Garcia is pretty average at world level and roughly comparable to Jones in ability.

    well he was US ameteur champion - that must count for something. he missed out on the olympics due to politics. if you beleive his dad. plus he's unbeaten but has already shown a tough chin and good heart.

    those in the know, other fighters have said the same.

    im not saying he's the next mayweather, not by a long way. but he definately world class level.

    carson jones is at best a contender, b+ level fighter at best. kell has had how many fights and has not even once come close to the level of khans last 5 opponents.

    Breidis Prescott and Danny Garcia (147 equivalent's) would lose to Brook IMHO , let alone even get close to knocking the guy out

    Does that include Paul McCloskey ?? , people are talking like Khan has looked solid in his wins , he was just flattened and was very nearly flattened by Maidana , looked like dog **** against Peterson with an excellent performance against Judah in between

    Khan has won and lost world titles , he's been the victim of 2 brutal KO's , at least Brook has a ****ing chin !!!

    Surely if Brook can work on his stamina then he was a bright future. Yes he didn't look great in rounds 6-12 vs Carson, but in the opening 6 he totally out boxed Carson. If Brook can improve on his conditioning then I think he'll go a long way, he won all of the first 6 rounds against Carson with ease.

    Finally some one talking sense khan has been a world champion for 3 years or somthing. Kell brook is still fighting eliminators and his next fight will be one. He's got a long way to go before he even reaches khans level.
