The decade-long rivalry between former champions Amir Khan (pictured) and Kell Brook will come to a conclusion in the new year when the two men headline a Boxxer event at Manchester AO Arena on Saturday, February 19th. [The press release did not state the contracted weight but identified the boxers as welterweights]. Following years of heated exchanges between the two, thousands of fans will pack the arena and the eyes of the world will be on both boxers when they enter the ring for a showdown to finally settle their issue. “Khan and Brook are icons of the sport in Britain and this will be an iconic encounter. Their rivalry has simmered for years, they are still by far the best welterweights in the country and this is the biggest fight in British boxing right now outside of Anthony Joshua versus Tyson Fury. We’re delighted to be able to deliver this legacy-defining clash,” said Ben Shalom, Boxxer's founder and CEO.
