Eddie Hearn Would Promote Amir Khan vs. Kell Brook But ‘Only At The Right Price’
Eddie Hearn is only willing to promote Amir Khan vs. Kell Brook at the right price.
After years of the fight between the two domestic rivals failing to come to fruition, it looks like it could finally be on the horizon with both fighters looking for one last payday.
Hearn even met up with Khan on Tuesday to discuss the fight which could take place in a December showdown in Saudi Arabia.
However, as he already reiterated, it will only be promoted by Matchroom Boxing on DAZN at the right price.
But with both fighters looking to sell the fight to the highest bidder, there’s a possibility it could be promoted elsewhere.
“I would do the fight, it is still a great fight, but it is not the fight it once was,” Hearn said (via Boxing Scene). “It’s an auction with two guys who want to make as much money as they can. I want to do the fight but only at the right price.
“Both guys see this as their last fight so whoever pays the most money (promoter/broadcaster) will get the fight. DAZN has an idea of what we think the fight is worth, I think Sky would just put it on pay-per-view and that could be risky.”
Do you think Khan vs. Brook is still a big fight in 2021?
