The Bolton born fighter has accepted the challenge to fight Brook following months of speculation, and he wants to meet his Welterweight rival at Wembley in the next 12 months.
The IBF Champion is undefeated in 28 bouts, a run that has certainly been turning heads within the boxing community. However Team Khan have placed the Sheffield born boxer some way down the pecking order, despite his recent dominant win over Jo Jo Dan.
Khan has already talked about his negotiations with an unknown fighter for a bout in the summer, with the announcement set to come in the next few days. Speculation has also been growing for a possible bout against the winner of the Pacquiao - Mayweather fight, a massive opportunity for any fighter.
The former WBC World Champion defeated American Devon Alexander in his last fight, held in Las Vegas the his impressive display helped to make a name for himself on American soil. Something that he feels his future opponent Kell Brook is yet to accomplish in his career.
After repeatedly playing down the chances of a fight against Britain’s other leading Welterweight, it appears the appetite for a battle of Britain style fight became too much for Khan and his team to turn down, with an early 2016 date expected.
