Kel emptied his tank a couple of years ago imo. I always liked watching his fights but he’s done and should have retired for me. Never been the same since that first eye socket injury that Golovkin inflicted imo.

Dunno like he was close with Spence and he's one of the top p4p fighter around.. He had a crap fight at 154 vs zeffura but that same zafura has done very well since Ave kod Jeff horn... Brook looked OK back with ingle vs that yank.. No ingle for this, but he's been in shape along time and he knows this is his last shot so he'll be OK in that respect, but Crawford too fast and too good from what I've seen... I hate Khan but even he couldn't land on him... Its boxing you never know Brook is big at this weight and Crawfords been rocked once or twice recently, but I'm firmly picking a Crawford win by stoppage
 
I swear that Brooks was going to face Khan so this fight is a welcome surprise.
 
Brook vs Khan is the fight Hearn thinks the world wants but actually it would be a load of **** delivered 10 years too late.

Khan ducked him... Get a title he said, so kell got one and another excuse came up... That was the time for that fight..... They'll just make that when it's all they've got left and to sponge the ppv money

Khan spent his entire career worried that a defeat wouldn’t get him his Mayweather scrap. It’s a shame like, cos technically Khan was incredible, at his peak he could have done Floyd, but after his weak chin was rattled a few times, there was no point in that fight from FM’s perspective.

His speed will never leave him but neither will his pathetic chin.

I agree completely - will most likely end his career making **** loads of money fighting in the middle east so I don't feel too sorry for him.

Think he’s invested a lot quite well already as well. Seems to have had good advisors. He’d make a good coach but I doubt he’ll go down that route.

He could always do I’m a Celebrity get... oh.

I was never a fan I remember willy limmond put him on his arse very early in his career and before the Prescot fight and I knew he had no chin... I think he sold tickets and was just an easy fight for the real elite to cash in and put a name on their resume and for him he was better off losing to them than being exposed by Brook or other fighters trying to get out upto the next bracket
 
Is anyone picking Brook in this fight?

I've not heard a single nicer, promoter or fan picking him

Not sure why you’d have Brook clear of Khan, Khan’s speed is/was utterly ridiculous. Was defo a tight fight no matter when it happened. Think he lost his way a bit and become easy to predict, but technically he was on another level to Brook.

Khan was a small welterweight having been at 140 before moving up... I think Brook wouldve walked him down walked through his punches and put him to sleep... I think Khan knew it and we might never know because he ducked him his entire career even when world title was on offer.

Khan has got a glass chin. Once it was exposed he was done as an elite level fighter, he’s dodged and bobbed his away around collecting cash ever since. Brook would still spark the **** clean out, and he’s past it too.

I’d back Khan with decent odds like. Looking at it on paper you’d have to say over 12 rounds Brook would run him into the ground and eventually find a few big slaps, but I like a punt.

Not that I’ll be lumping on Kell tomorrow like, he’s gonna get a hiding.
