Amir Khan vs Kell Brook Boxing Negotiations Begin

Promoter Eddie Hearn says that talks over a possible Brit blockbuster between Kell Brook and Amir Khan have begun. The unbeaten Sheffield welterweight star faces an IBF welterweight
title eliminator next Saturday night (October 20) in the Steel City of
Sheffield against Argentine Hector Saldivia in Betfair’s ‘This Is It’,
with Randall Bailey defending the title against Devon Alexander in New
York on the same night.
Khan returns to action on December 15 against Carlos Molina in Los
Angeles after his shock stoppage loss to Danny Garcia in July, and Brook
and Khan met on the Ringside set on Sky Sports last week in an
explosive edition of the boxing magazine show.
Brook’s promoter Hearn believes that fight fans are desperate for the
pair to meet and has been in touch with Khan’s team about the fight.
“I spoke with Khan’s team a month or so ago and again after their
appearance on Ringside, it’s certainly a fight that can be made,” said
Hearn. “It’s too big to be ignored and it’s only a matter of time before
the public virtually insist on Brook vs Khan happening.”
