AMIR KHAN, Kell Brook and Kell Brook still struggle to overcome Saturday night's bitter grudge.
Bolton's 35 year-old star is the A side in the 149lbs catchweight clash. He is pulling all the strings for the bout.
Khan and Brook will finally meet up in the ring Saturday night
SunSport has learned that Khan has included a 10 lb rehydration in the deal. He will be fined PS100,000.00 for each pound he brings in on Friday afternoon, and again Saturday at the check-weight.
The usual time for the follow-up weigh in is usually the morning after the fight.
A source close to the fight told us that Team Khan would like the extra weight-in to be done a brutal FOUR HOUR before the 11pm bout. This would make Brook sick and reduce his ability to rehydrate.
Brook and Dominic Ingle, his trainer, are fighting to get it closer to lunchtime so that the former IBF Welterweight champion can properly refuel.
However, the back-and forth continued through Thursday night.
Ruthless Khan stated that PS100,000.00 per Pound is a large sum of money and that he may not be able to lose such a large amount of money.
"I'm sure he doesn’t want to give me 100s of thousand of pounds. He will die trying to lose that much weight.
"I woke up Thursday morning at 151 lbs. I am naturally very small." A light workout or a walk could help me lose weight.
Brook admits that he has struggled to reach the 10st 7lbs limit for welterweight since he bulimicked up to middleweight in 2016 to pay big-money to GennadyGolovkin.
Khan claims he is very close to the agreed 149 lb limit, and Khan will be left guessing until the end.
He grinned: "I might come in overweight. He smiled and said, "I will do what I want."

"I am currently on the weight fine of 151lbs. It will be tactical.
"I may tell lies, there might also be mind games." He's played so many mind games over the years that I don't mind playing them back."
