    Yeah i can see Khan flurrying Kell "Badly Hurt OMG these are dangerous times" Brook into submission with much screaming from the commentators about "Saved from certain injury" etc etc

    I think it’s gonna look like Garcia-Khan.

    Amir will start fast with flurries of one twos as his usual routine. Brook will land occasional counters in between. Sometime in the mid rounds I think Brook will land something that Khan can’t recover from. Khan doesn’t have the timing and counter punching of Crawford, so I don’t see him hurting Brook that easily. He’s more of a front end speed kind of guy, who punches fast in flurries but he’s not a quick timing kind of fighter. I think his style plays into Brook’s hands, unless Brook is in fact totally SHOT, which we’ve all seen happen to better fighters than him. But I still think he has enough in the tank to beat an inactive, semi retired Khan.

    Brook KO 7

    Being that Khan is the bigger name amongst casuals, I figured most would be picking him.

    I think people just can't get past Khan's shit chin. But while I see a path to victory for both men, I can't call it..

    American casuals.

    Both of them are known in the UK.

    Brook isn't really well known here at all. Khan is a far bigger name.

    Eddie is so bitter. Lol

    He couldn’t deliver Keith Thurman, Danny Garcia, or Amir Khan to Brook when he was champion and now that a big fight is happening, he’s bitter.

    I watched "The Gloves Are Off" with these two. I gotta admit, Khan is owning Brook. Seems totally in his head.

    Brook is coming across like a little brother fighting for approval from his older brother. Saying shit like, "I just want him to acknowledge my achievements." WTFFFF Kell????

    I feel even more confident about my Khan pick now.

    When Khan owns you mentally it's cos you live in a pond with fellow amoebas. But then again Khan might be a Asian math whiz. He's taken enough counts to be one......

    I just picture Crawford jumping in between them saying, "Kids, kids, settle down! Save it for the ring..."

    Khan & Brook: "Sorry dad..."

    Give me this matchup over Haye-Chisora every day of the week.

    You know me. I would eradicate the heavyweight division.

    Ironically, Brook is threatening to come in heavy.

    Khan looked frail at the weigh in to me.

    For the record I agree that Khan has come off better in the pre-fight. But I think it’s mainly due to Brook being a horrible talker and promoter.

    Khan looked very bony in the face. Looked drawn. Scrawny in the face. Take that beard off you'll see it even more.

    Brook looked right on it.

    Of course, Holyfield often looked brilliant and then wouldn't perform.

    Brook cannot articulate his thoughts or feelings. I don't think either man is really in the others head.

    Brook looks like he’s made the weight correctly. Doesn’t look drained at all, at least to me.

    Brook promises to be cool calm and "collective"

    Under the tv light close up he does look an older guy. Balding. His face looks a bit worn.

    Khan has a better neck.

    Hard to call.
