    I'd definitely favour Peterson over Prescott if they ever fought. He is no easy opponent for Khan, although I expect him to win.

    Why would Khan want to fight Brook at this stage? He has no world title. He has no name in America. He's not a household name in the Uk.

    Khan vs Brook could be a Benn vs Eubank, Haye vs Enzo type British superfight somewhere down the line but not right now.

    Khan is in America, fighting big fights on HBO, they will want him to fight recognisable names to the American public. If Brook proves himself and becomes a world champion then this fight can happen. But only when Khan is fighting at welterweight, when Brook has a title and a big name and when it commands a decent payday.

    You don't serve up a meal like that before it's cooked properly.

    I don't think people understand how boxing works so this post is a waste of time.

    You'd have been better of putting "KHAN SHUD FUCKING FIGHT MARTINEZ MAN"

    Khan is gonna fight Pacquiao. He said he's been whipping Pacquiao in sparring matches.

    Prescott was pretty badly knocked out in his last fight and he lost to McCloskey in the one previous even if you thought Prescott won that fight, it was close. Because of the scoring controversy in the McCloskey fight, I felt that should Prescott win a fight against a Alvarado type of opponent, he would be as good of an opponent as any other other than Tim Bradley or Lamont Peterson etc. Now I don't believe so and I'm not sure how well he'll react after the Alvarado defeat. It could have been pretty demoralizing to be winning a hard fought scrap only to be knocked out badly in the final round.

    Khan fighting Brooks would be a dangerous fight for him. I would respect Khan for taking the fight because it will give him greater confidence should he win to say he is ready for Floyd by beating a young hungry undefeated welterweight contender such as Brook.

    More likely Khan will want to clear up the division and fight Bradley and then take an easier option at welterweight which would be Hatton.

    Its a plausable domestic fight when kell has a welterweight title and he wouldnt be until after a possible floyd fight maybe so it could be a rebound title fight for Khan, from his point of view

    Any reason or chance to fight Prescott are all but gone for Khan, it would be like Haye wanting to fight Carl Thompson.
