Amir Khan and Kell Brook’s Trainers and Fathers Clash In Accusations Ahead Of Bout

Amir Khan and Kell Brook will finally meet on Saturday night and before their bout, their fathers and trainers had a clash of words.

Khan and Brook are set to headline a card on Saturday night after years of talking about it. Brian ‘BoMac’ McIntyre and Dominic Ingle, respectively in Khan’s and Brook’s corners, shouted back-and-forth as the simmering rivalry boiled over at Thursday’s press conference. The two fighters then engaged in a lengthy and eerily silent face-off.

“Kell only went three rounds [against Crawford],” McIntyre said. “Amir actually came to fight (via SkySports).”

But Ingle, Brook’s trainer, shot back: “Khan took a way out [against Crawford].

“I am surprised that Amir took the fight [against Brook]. He is a celebrity, a superstar. He has more to lose than to gain.

“I expected more from Brian who is a good talker. He likes to shout. He thinks he knows a lot about Brook.

“Khan is a good talker. But on the night there won’t be any talking.

“I believe Kell has more left, more in the tank.”

An aggrieved McIntyre questioned why Ingle wasn’t in Brook’s corner for the fight against Crawford.

He then said about Brook: “He’s good for four rounds. He’s got nothing left.

“We trained for 12 rounds but, if the stoppage is there, we will go for it.”

Amir Khan and Kell Brook have both promised to finish one another as Khan says he can’t wait to give Brook the beating he deserves.

“The beating he’ll get is like nothing he’s got before,” Khan said. “All the talking he has done? We will put him in his place. Kell has always been obsessed by my career, like a fanboy. I live in his head. I can’t wait to get in the ring and do a job on him.”

Who do you think will win, Amir Khan or Kell Brook?
