Ducked Brook to fight Crawford? Oh Eddie, please! :rolleyes

The fact is he is seen as an easy fight for someone like Crawford but holds name value, this potential fight has gave khan an easy way out of the brook fight again. I won't go too far into it because I couldn't care less about the fight but khan would sooner be beaten by anyone other than brook, his ego won't allow it.

He simply has been ducking brook for years and I won't think any other way, but equally brook should have stopped calling him years ago because it's obvious he wants no part of him. The funny thing is I actually give khan a better chance now than ever before because brook looked bad in his last one and with all the silly weight demands he would be be a shell in the ring.

I've pretty much have always been of the opinion that Khan thinks he can beat Brook but is scared in case he lost. Almost like the schoolyard mentality of not playing a girl in a game because it would be embarrassing should you lose.

Anyway I don't really give a fuck about this fight these days. This constant back and forth has become stale.

My thoughts exactly. The fight certainly isn't beyond khan and I'm sure he'd have full confidence of the win, but there is always that element of 'what if I lose'. As I said before his ego simply won't allow him to even take the risk of a loss to brook, nevermind actually fight the kid.

Both parties have been completely guilty of chasing fights and treading water rather than face stiff competition and gaining fights on merit and making themselves unavoidable. Khan with the Mayweather/pac situationamd brrok with khan.

Not really any interest in this fight for me now, but wouldn't complain if it finally happened, just can't be arsed with the back and forth joke it has become.

The Crawford fight is irrelevant, this has been going on since 2012. If Khan doesn’t fight Brook he’ll always be remembered by a lot of boxing fans for ducking it.

You only had to listen to the reaction of the crowd in Manchester of all places when they booed Khan & cheered for Brook at the Usyk - Bellew fight.

Is anyone subscribed to hatman boxing he released an audio clip of a man who knows kell brook personally, the man in the clip confessed and admittdd that kell brook is in fact gay, he said prior to the GGG fight brook was in his friends X5 there was a debt collector who was in the back of the car and kell brooks cousin was drivinv the car, brook was ag the back of the car with this gangster/debt collector, both brook and this gangster ended up making out in the back of the vehicle, upon hearinb the kissing kell brooks cousin crashed the car.
As for this fight i see brook stopping khan early, brook still has pop in his shots thats all he needs vs amir

I agree with Eddie. The perception will be that the fight didn't happen because Khan was afraid to lose. I mean I know you boys hate Eddie but when he's right, he's right.

I agree with you and others in the thread who have said it's quite clear Khan doesn't want to lose to Brook, hence he won't fight him. That's definitely a duck.

But every story has two sides and it does get boring watching/hearing the desperation from team Brook, trying as hard as they can to bait Khan into taking it.

I'm not sure what is worse? Is it the girl who knows the guy likes her so keeps leading him on, or the guy who just can't see he's being lead on?

I do think Khan is fully aware how desperate for the fight Brook is, so I do kind of enjoy the trolling from Amir.

I am subscribed to hatman but never heard this one. Not that I care if brook is gay or not. Infact it would add to the hilarious khan meltdown if he got KO'd by brook who then came out as gay considering the stick he's given him about the ridiculous rumours and the fact he's Muslim and would probably be disowned for losing to a homosexual.

I am sure Khan doesn't want to lose to anyone. But accusing someone of ducking an opponent when they fight a better one instead, and one who holds a title, is just plain daft.
