By Scott Gilfoid: IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook seems to have taken the news pretty well of Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) passing him up for WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs). Brook, 29, had been hoping to face Khan on June 4, in a nice paying fight at Wembley Stadium in London, UK.
Instead of Brook getting the Khan fight, he is left with nothing. All he can hope for is maybe his promoter Eddie Hearn setting up a unification fight against WBC welterweight champion Danny Garcia instead for the summer. That is not a Wembley Stadium type of fighter, however.
Brook says he is not sure if Khan is cashing out with the fight against the much bigger 25-year-old Canelo Alvarez. Never the less, Brook does not see it as a winnable fight for Khan.
By Dan Ambrose: The ticket prices for the May 7 fight between WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs) and Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) are still not know at this time because the venue hasn’t been locked down 100 percent as of yet for the contest. 
By Scott Gilfoid: After recently making a fruitless attempt to setup a big stadium fight against IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook, Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) abandoned the efforts and chose instead to challenge WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs) on May 7 on HBO pay-per-view in a fight that will be staged in Las Vegas, Nevada. 
By Scott Gilfoid: Former world champion Carl Froch thinks that the much smaller and weaker welterweight Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) has a chance to pull off an upset over WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs) in their fight on HBO PPV on May 7. Khan, 29, is likely to be a significant underdog in this fight because he’ll be giving away from 25 to 30 pounds to the much heavier Canelo. 
By Robbie Bannatyne: Many say,’be shocked but never surprised’ by the strange happenings that can occur in elite sports. But you could almost hear the collective gasp of shock and surprise from the boxing world when we 1st heard that WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs) will fight Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) on May 7 on HBO pay-per-view. Hours after waking up to a message regarding the bout via Facebook, from a boxing mad friend back home in Scotland, I am still struggling to digest the dramatic turn of events.
By Ivan Godfrey: The boxing world was sent into a frenzy of shock and debate yesterday, following the unexpected announcement of a fight between Britain’s two-time world champion Amir `King` Khan(31-3,19ko`s) and the WBC middleweight champion of the world Saul `Canelo` Alvarez(46-1-1,32ko`s). 
By Dan Ambrose: Amir Khan’s former trainer Freddie Roach says he thinks Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) should have taken the easier fight against IBF welterweight Kell Brook rather than facing the much bigger and more talented WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs) on May 7. 
By Dan Ambrose: IBF/IBO/WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (34-0, 31 KOs) is expected to face unbeaten #3 IBF Dominic Wade (18-0, 12 KOs) on April 23 at The Forum in Inglewood, California. The fight hasn’t been announced as of yet by Golovkin’s promoters at K2, but Wade, 25, is said to be the likely opponent for Golovkin’s interim fight on 4/23 on HBO. 
By Scott Gilfoid: Poor IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook (35-0, 24 KOs) finds himself being ignored and passed over by Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) for Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs). It’s become kind of the norm for Brook to be ignored and passed over by Khan for fights, and by now, he should expect that kind of treatment.
