At first they won’t fight at all. Now it looks like they will fight at least twice. Two Britons Amir Khan and Kell Brook are finally set to face each other on February 19 in the UK. This is the result of years of hostility, dodging and a contemporary classic joke. Needless to say, both men are said to have passed their primes. Talented and accomplished as they are now, these boys have had to go through some wear and tear. However, it seems there is still some curiosity in the boxing fanbase. So it’s probably reasonable for a semi-dated match in the past itself to have a rematch clause.
“I believe there is a rematch clause,” Brook said Sports sky, “And I’m not sure if he wants to do that rematch clause with what I want to do with him in this one.” Listening to Brook narrate, the match with Khan would be a complete obliteration. “I thought there was going to be fireworks and as soon as that bell rang, I would march out and I would go straight to him,” Brook said of Khan. “He’s going to want to do the same thing and he’s going to have speed, he’s going to have power and he’s going to have everything you want to see in a boxing match in this fight.”
In the end, Brook seems rather indifferent to the rematch clause. “I gave it to my manager, my dad and my team,” said the 35-year-old former weightlifter. “All I care about is this fight. I knew that there would be a rematch if Amir Khan wanted it. If Amir Khan wants another beat, he can have one. “Of course, Khan is taking a different perspective on things. However, there’s one thing about Brook, the man who seems really eager for this showdown.
“I really like this sport,” he said Sports sky. “I know I’m 35 years old and I’m not a cock in a boxing match, but I just think for myself that I’ve done it many times before and the world has wanted this fight in the past. many years.” One of the factors surrounding this fight that makes it so interesting – aside from the fact that these two skilled boxers can still have some real highlights – is the fact that it’s clear the fighters aren’t fans. each other’s.
“This is a real hate match,” Brook said. “No love is lost in this fight and we both don’t like each other. The fans and the pros cannot divide us and that shows how even this fight will play out. ”
