By Scott Gilfoid: Eddie Hearn, the promoter for IBF welterweight belt holder Kell Brook, says he had a recent conversation with Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) about a potential fight between Khan and Brook for mid-2016, and Hearn is starting to feel confident that he can make that fight.
He’s now looking to get the 29-year-old Khan to commit to the fight with Brook so that they can start marketing the fight and preparing for it. Hearn old Khan that Brook is going to be moving up to the junior middleweight division after two more fights so that Brook can look to capture a title in that division.
By Scott Gilfoid: Amir Khan has put his career temporarily in a holding pattern while waiting to see if his management can negotiate a fight with Filipino superstar Manny Pacquiao for April 9th next year. 
By Scott Gilfoid: It’s looking like IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook won’t be ready by next month to fight Diego Chaves on the undercard of the Anthony Joshua vs. Dillian Whyte fight card on December 12th at the O2 Arena in London, UK. Brook’s promoter Eddie Hearn would love to have the Brook-Chaves fight take place on the December 12th card because it would make it a slam dunk that the card would be worthy of putting on Sky Box Office. 
By Scott Gilfoid: Despite IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook (35-0, 24 KOs) now scheduled to fight #4 IBF contender Diego Chaves (23-2-1, 19 KOs) at some point in the near future, Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) still feels that the 29-year-old Brook needs to prove himself against top fighters before he’ll agree to fight him. 
By Scott Gilfoid: If IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook (35-0, 24 KOs) gets his way, he’ll be back inside the ring this December if his rib injury heals up in time for that to take place. If the 29-year-old Brook heals up by December, he’ll be able to fight on the undercard of the Anthony Joshua vs. Dillian Whyte card at the O2 Arena in London, UK. 
By Scott Gilfoid: It’s starting to look like Amir Khan could end up not getting the Manny Pacquiao fight like he’d been hoping to get. This would be the second big money fight that Khan has missed out on if he fails to get the fight against the Filipino fighter. But Khan can still get a big money fight if he chooses to face IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook, who has a fight coming up in the near future against Diego Chaves. 
By Scott Gilfoid: With Floyd Mayweather Jr. now retired, IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook (35-0, 24 KOs) is mouthing off, saying that he thinks he’s the best fighter in the welterweight division. Heck, I don’t think Brook is even the best welterweight in the UK. Amir Khan probably beats him. 
By Scott Gilfoid: Well, it doesn’t look like the boxing fans are going to be getting much value for their money in the co-feature bout in this month’s Sky Box Office pay-per-view card head-lined by Kell Brook (35-0, 24 KOs) vs. Diego Chaves (23-2-1, 19 KOs) on October 24th at the Sheffield Arena in Sheffield, UK.
