By Scott Gilfoid: According to promoter Eddie Hearn, the British boxing public wants to see Amir Khan face Kell Brook, and he says it’s important that he gives them that fight. Hearn just happens to be the promoter for both fighters, so it helps him as well as if he makes this fight. I don’t know if the world wants Khan vs. Brook. The boxing fans outside of the UK want Khan to fight Errol Spence, Keith Thurman, Danny Garcia or Terence Crawford. They don’t care about Brook, who clearly isn’t the best fighter at 154. We saw what Spence did to Brook last May in forcing him to quit on one knee when the going got tough. Khan-Brook is little more than a domestic level scrap.
