AMIR KHAN will finally face his great rival Kell Brook in an epic domestic grudge match NEXT WEEK.
Brook and Khan have been rumored for big dust-ups for years, but they have never signed a contract.
Khan vs Brook will be held in Manchester on February 19, 2012.
Both fighters are now at the end of their careers. Khan and Brook have stepped aside to negotiate for boxing fans the outcome they want.
Khan has not been in action in over two years. He last defeated Billy Dib in a farcical bout back in the summer 2019.
He had previously lost a fight for the world title at welterweight to Terence Crawford, a pound-for-pound fighter. Brook was familiar with Crawford's training in Nebraska before his bout with Brook.
It was Crawford that Brook fought the last time in November 2020. Special K lost to Bud in round four of their Las Vegas match-up.

What have you heard?
Khan stated: "In the last 10 years, I have fought 2 of the most pound-for–pound best fighters.
Kell has never been a problem for me. I have never had to. The results I have achieved speak for themselves.
"There's no need to be bitter about the past. He hasn't earned this fight in the past. It will be interesting to see if his words can be backed up on February 19.
"I am going levels down by taking on this fight. I've fought the best fighters in the world. I have conquered America.
"But people want me to punch him in his face.
"It's now my turn to move on to bigger and better things.
Brook stated: "He's a cuckoo land.
"You are being knocked out. I will make you lose your spark. Amir Khan will then take the last step.
"He has never shown me respect or acknowledged me, he's always veered off."
He said, "Win a world championship and then I will fight for you. Fight this guy and then I'll fight you." He ran away.
"It's gotten to a point in his career where he has nowhere else to run.
"I wanted it for many, many years."
