Dr. Gonzo 8,159 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I don’t understand why Mayweather even bothered to fight that Japanese kickboxer. I mean I guess he’s well paid for about 2 minutes worth of work - but did anyone think the kickboxer would win? Sort of a joke, even compared to the McGregor fight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,200 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Didn't even know the fight was still happening. Not a proper contest but it's just the money that matters to Mayweather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s simply just about promotion for the kickboxing company. Get Mayweather in for an exhibition and get their brand out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,200 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 DeGale vs Eubank Jr officially announced....won’t be paying for that one. Could see Eubank winning just because DeGale has been through the wars now, and will probably propel him up to bigger fights because it’ll probably do well on PPV.

With Pacman and Broner on ITV4 apparently, Al Haymon moving into the UK market. BT starting to look up more as well, good competition even if some non-PPV fights are on. I hope DeGale is telling the truth isn’t close to retirement as I’d love to see some more decent clashes from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUFC 1,494 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Imagine Brooke vs Khan, the build up would be unbearable. Khan talking utter shit, while Brooke goes on about his chocolate brownies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUFC 1,494 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Under normal circumstances this is a very good fight for Khan, fighting for a belt in Vegas or New York, but he's such a shit it's obvious he's ducking Brook and would much rather get spannered by Crawford.

He’s so scared of losing to Brook. He has absolutely nothing to lose against Crawford who’s one of the P4P best and everything to gain. The Brook fight is a much bigger risk. If he retires having lost to Crawford nobody will think much of it. If he loses to Brook he will absolutely hate it with a passion. This is just one of the reasons why the he’s a cunt and denied us the fight for so many years. I don’t even give a fuck if Khan wins and shocks us all, I don’t give a shit about the fight. The fight I and millions of other British fight fans have wanted for years is the Kel Brook fight. He’d rather get knocked out off Crawford rather than risk losing against Brook.

I can see why people say it, I just don't agree with it. Pretty much since he won a world title Khan has been about chasing the big fights in the US. Brook needs Khan more than the other way around. Khan's not going to turn big fights down over in the US when he knows the Brook fight is always there to fall back on if it goes wrong over there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We both know popadom chin is too scared of losing to Brook. I agree the fight will always be there but it’s just losing interest year by year. It would have been huuuuuuuuuge a few years ago.

I'm sure the money he'd make from the fight would be a nice little cushion. Brook is desperate for the fight because it's the only big pay day out there for him. Khan has different options because he's a name outside of the UK You can't blame someone for wanting to fight the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNORTHODOX 179 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) You cant say khan is scared of Brook when he's fought Canelo and now Crawford instead of taking the brook fight for more money, I dont think he is scared I reckon its just about his ego he doesn't want to give Brook satisfaction of fighting him because he believes he's above him whether thats right or wrong. Also Khan is all about legacy and wants the biggest names on his resume when he retires, If you think about it what will beating Kel brooke actually do for his career? He's not gonna get bgger in America and worldwide like he wants by beating brook but going after the likes of Crawford instead.

Danny 2,200 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Brook's retired the last two big fights he's had because of his eye sockets...I get the hatred between them and maybe they're both afraid of losing to each other (maybe one more than the other), but Crawford is a bigger opportunity. The chance to become world champion again and beat one of the very best, if he wins there'll be a lot less people taking the piss out of him. Khan v Brook is a big fight in terms of money, they'll both make a lot and probably sell out a stadium if it's available. But you can't knock him for going after a better fighter than Brook for a world title....crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Khan is scared of Brook but he's scared of losing to Brook. If that makes sense? More so than he is of losing to Crawford. Amir Khan beating Kel Brook would be amazing for his legacy in Britain. It would be for either fighter.
