    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.

    Khan piles up the points lead all the way from the opening bell. Can he stick to his game plan for whole fight ?

    Brook has 36 minutes to land a decent shot and I can't see him not doing so. Once he does it's over

    This is a really fun match up. Khan's activity will win rounds, but Brook is so good technically and strong. I see Khan starting fast, but as soon as Brook times him, then it's on. Brook does little wrong, whilst Khan does plenty. I favour the better boxing brain and fundamentals over the super speed pigeon brain.

    brook was accurate, but didnt throw enough. im surprised he got the nod. you have to beat a champion to take the belt. porter sucked, but he was busier and more aggressive.

    ya cant just counterpunch!! khan looked great in his last fight. even with his weak chin, id still go with khan. brook just doesnt throw enough. if he did, id say he would have a good chance.
