    All boxers talk **** part and parcel of the sport especially when trying to make fights and money.
    It's a fight after all, and with fighting people call each other out.

      And to be fair to Khan everyone wants either of those two and its a massive risk to get into the ring with anyone that could put that huge money fight at risk hence these top fights that could happen below those two just don't seem to be coming together. Shame really as I think a Brook/Khan fight could be very good.

        Great point, until the FM/PAC fight is done and the next oppo picked, why would you risk it.

        With the tables turned KB would be doing exactly the same at this moment in time, but as i say he's got to shout it out that he's ready and waiting, even if deep down he understands Khans predicament.

          But imagine if he were to beat Brook I'm pretty sure who ever wins out of Mayweather v Pacquiao the winner would probably want a unification bout.

            Big if for me, I think Brooks power will cause Khan a lot of concern. It'll be a good fight if it ever happens

              Doubt it.

              If Mayweather wins convincingly he will probably retire.

              If it is close then a rematch is nailed on. :hoofshake:

                I think Brook beats Khan myself but I still think he should take the fight because he ain't getting the winner of Mayweather v Pacquiao if he just sits on his arse and waits.

                I see Broner has tweeted that he had a facetime chat with Khan and is hoping they fight on June 6th at 147.

                  He's got one more fight left of his six fight deal and has said he will definitely fight in September. Personally I think his ego will push him to beat Rocky's record.

                    Just watching the undercard.

                    WTF is Jim Watt on? Etches completely sparked out and Watt suggesting he should be allowed to get up and carry on.

                          Rematch not in the contract.

                            really? surprised at that, Still think it will happen though. cant see either wanting to fight Brook or Khan to unify the belt ( if they were bothered!)

                              It's definitely not in the contract it was mentioned when the fight was signed. I personally think if Mayweather loses to Pacquiao there is no doubt in my mind that they'll be a rematch however should Mayweather win I'm not convinced he'd give Manny a rematch.
