    Default I wouldn't be able to pick a winner from Brook vs Khan... Thoughts?

    Khan's speed and work rate, make it very interesting. If a khan had a chin, I would favour him heavily.

    I think Brook will beat Khan. He is too strong and skilled. Khan has speed but the chin makes him fight too defensive and he will lose.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    If khan had a chin i would go bet my life savings on him, that was very unimpressive by brook and i had him loosing the fight simply because i felt neither dude landed shit but porter was the agressor for majority. Even with khans shit chin id still give him a decent chance

    I think Khan beats Brook pretty convincingly

    You saw a different fight than most of us.

    In armins defense, I slightly agree.

    Did canelo do anymore than porter.?

    Porter was even more aggressive than canelo and cant have taken as many shots.

    Canelo is the golden goose so it was going his way anyway but you would still expect porter to get the home decision.

    On the plus side for brook he never seemed hurt and seem to daze porter a few times so I suppose that clinched it.

    Khan vs brook has to happen but khan might not get floyd next sept if hes fasting..

    I would heavily favour Khan in this one.

    He is a far superior boxer and has the kind of speed Brook has never had to deal with. I can't see Brook outboxing Khan and he's not exactly a devastating puncher either. I think Khan could get through this one, even with his questionable chin.

    I was drunk as hell so probably have a skewed vision of what happened but I'm not rewatching that.

    Brook beats khan. He will be ahead on the score cards but will still win by KO between 6th and 8th. I would rather him fight Thurman but beating khan would put him in a really good position to fight floyd. Since they've been suppose to fight for like 2 years now.

    I reckon it would look exactly like Khan-Garcia. Khan is winning lookiing dynamite with his speed/combos but will eventually get timed by Brook and it's good night vienna. Brook could possibly KO him with his jab.

    Fenster's scenario might be right. To give Khan his due though, I thought he'd have more trouble with Collazo because of his chin but he didn't and appears to be learning to hide it better. With his speed he can beat Brook. It's an interesting fight.

    Brook is a way better boxer than he had a chance to demonstrate last night. Khan might have the edge in speed but Brook is able to adjust much better when fighting boxers and Kell just has more ring smarts and power than Khan despite his limited top level experience. There is no way Khan could live with Brook for 12 rounds and that's coming from somebody who has always rated and defended Khan.

    I'd want Brook but there is a lot of different factors that makes it interesting.

    Khan has no chin but as we saw last night, Brook struggled to land big on a faster fighter.

    Very close.
