Boxing promoter Eddi Hearn is still curious about meeting Kell Brook with Amir Khan in a delayed battle. The two British boxers failed to fight in the ring because Khan deliberately avoided Brook.
The scenario of bringing together Kell Brook vs Amir Khan was designed by Hearn to meet the expectations of boxing fans. He also considered Brook is still ambitious to beat Khan. “He is still hungry and still wants to KO Mr. Khan,” Hearn told Sky Sports.
Last April 20, Khan preferred to fight Terence Crawford in the race for the WBO Welter Class championship belt. As a result, Khan humiliated Crawford with a TKO defeat at Madison Square Garden, New York, United States.
After the defeat, Khan even took the ring again against Billy Dib in the race for the WBC Intercontinental Welter Class championship belt in Saudi Arabia on July 12. Once again, Khan avoided the duel with Brook. This avoidance made Brook hold a grudge against Khan.
Brok’s revenge is what Hearn wants to channel by bringing him to meet Khan. ” I still want to realize the fight (Kell Brook vs Amir Khan). I give one more chance, ” he said.
