KELL BROOK said Amir Khan “must be crazy” to want a rematch after his “one-sided” loss – but refused to rule out a second fight.
Brook secured bragging rights with a sixth round demolition in February, which looked to have settled their near two-decade feud.

But it has since emerged Khan was contemplating exercising his rematch clause and refusing to retire.
Brook is open to adding another chapter to their rivalry with a sequel – but is not sure what need there is for it.

“If he wants to do that come and see me.”

There was even suggestions Khan, 35, could trigger his rematch clause so that anyone else wanting to fight Brook would need to pay him a step aside fee.
Brook, 35, responded: “I thought that but listen, it is what it is. I’m ready, I’m a fighter and like I said, the fight’s there.”
Promoter Ben Shalom, the man to finally agree the grudge match, has revealed Khan could return in a tune-up bout before eyeing the rematch.
Shalom said: “I think Amir’s accepted his next fight won’t be Kell.

“He needs to prove it wasn’t about money and he was injured and all these things – he’s got a lot to prove.
“So if he wants to fight again, I don’t think it’ll be Kell Brook.
“Because let’s be honest, as fans, it doesn’t make sense right now. And it’s up to Kell what he does.”
