My problem with Khan is that he seems to think he should go to the head of the line.
I've enjoyed Khan's last three fights, especially the Chris Algieri fight. Does anyone believe Berto is a worthy opponent for Floyd? Who would you like to see fight Floyd, Khan or Berto? Why isn't all of boxing giving Floyd the finger and laughing in his face?
I don't hold him to a higher standard. Brook is a champion in Khan's division and a relatively big draw in the UK. A fight with Khan in the UK would be pretty massive. If Khan doesn't get Mayweather, who does he fight? No fight makes better sense. Sure, Thurman is a good fight, but he doesn't have the rivalry with Khan that Brook does. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

You are right Khan v Brooks is logical but Khan may choose Thurman or even Bradley in spite to annoy Hearn and Kell

Khan won't be choosing anybody. Haymon will. The only guy who chooses opponents out there is Floyd. Nobody else. Froch tried it , didn't work , so he retired.

The fight would be huge in Uk right guys love it when your country man have a rivalry that shit huge there more so then here. I really do not know shit about brooks except fought one guy for a belt and i know khan more like on his last leg so great fight i would think.

If it looks like a duck, and walks like a duck it is a duck!
Khan will get beat by PBF if they fight for $m a lot
Khan will get beat by Brook if they fight for £m a little
PBF doesn't need either of them to top up his pension scheme
Re: If Khan Doesn't Get the Mayweather Fight, and Won't Fight Brook, It's a Duck
Quick breakdown of this interview from Saturday.
This is what Khan says - Brook isn't worthy of sharing a ring with Amir Khan. Why should Amir Khan give Kell Brook a payday. Brook needs to fight the top names like Amir Khan does. Amir Khan can sell out Wembley against anyone, he doesn't need Kell Brook. Amir Khan is a big name in America. Nobody knows who Kell Brook is in America. Amir Khan is up there with the Floyd Mayweather's and Manny Pacquiao's. Kell Brook needs to prove himself by beating guys Amir Khan has beat like Bradley (:D - he said it). Nobody wants to see Amir Khan-Kell Brook they want to see Amir Khan-Floyd Mayweather.
And then he ends with the bit that I believe is the truth - "I'm a fighter, if it was up to me the Brook fight would have maybe already happened, but I have a team advising me."
I don't believe Khan is scared of Brook, i'm pretty sure he believes he'd whoop him. However, his "team" sure the fuck are scared of Brook and any big puncher of late. The cushty million dollar paydays they're currently pocketing, thanks to American TV, will go straight out the window if he's left kipping from a Brook righthand (which is a strong possibilty).

Honestly i do not care for Khan but i fucking do not even really have a clue about brooks. From what i seen beat like a ranked guy why is he such hot shit off one win. I am pretty sure the fight happens but if it not big in wk which it might be then there not much of point to it.

Amir Khan is a annoying fucker but if Floyd only has 1 more fight left FUCK THAT why wouldn't Anyone call mayweather out?
Thurman wants a shot and is actually a mandatory for the WBC. But not worthy accordion to fan.
Shawn Porter would be a fun fight but also not worthy according to fans.
Tim Bradley definitely deserves a shot, sadly won't even get mentioned.
But my evil side wishes that Mayweather would of chose Danny Garcia and introduced him to 147!!!
IMO Mayweather beats all the people I mentioned but IM JUST SAYING
According to Floyd fans noone is worthy to challenge him which is why it is ok for him to fight whoever he wants
