Amir Khan has had one less fight than Kel Brook and has fought plenty of top ten fighters. Kels best name on his resume is Mathew Hatton. Not very impressive so why would Khan want to take on someone with a crap resume. If he beats carson jones and then beats another top ten fighter then I would say he then deserves a Khan, Berto or Ortiz fight.
It gets on my nerves when people fight a bunch of losers and expect to be put against someone who have beaten world class opposition. Makes me think of warren trying to get Cleverly a fight with the winner of Dawson Hopkins. He may have a title but who of note has he fought to give him a shot at the best in the devision.
Then you have Khan who with only 26 fights under his name has fought top ten opposition and people say he is ducking fighters. That is bulls*it. He was only recently avoided by Bradley the best in devision.
He also went over to Petersons home town and put both his belts on the line. There are not alot of top fighters that would have the guts to do that.
I know the guy is an egotistical prick but he is not a coward. You look objectively at other fighters including Kel Brook and tell me what risks they have taken compared to Khan. They all avoid the dangerous fighters for ages just to build up a long unbeaten record.
Jhon Murray is another one. All those fights undefeated against losers and then loses to someone outside of the top ten.
