Amir Khan confident he will give ‘fanboy’ Kell Brook worst beating of career

Amir Khan vowed he will inflict a painful defeat on Kell Brook when they finally face off in the ring on Saturday.

After years of insults and animosity between the British fighters, a 149lb catchweight bout was agreed and it takes place in Manchester this weekend.

The final press conference on Thursday became increasingly personal between the rivals, and Khan was adamant that he is going to produce a dominant display on fight night.

“I’m worried about a few things, one being Kell’s health after the beating I’m going to be giving him come fight night,” Khan said.

“The beating he’s going to get is something he’s never had before.

“We are going to definitely put him in his place. This has been going on for 10 years. Kell has always been very obsessed with my career, he is like a fanboy, which is the honest truth.
