Amir Khan and Kell Brook have been at odds for many years.
Brook and Khan have been rumored for big dust-ups for years, but they have never signed a contract.
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 hasn’t 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 star. Crawford was a trainer he worked with in Nebraska before Brook's clash.
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.

Who is Amir Khan’s new trainer?
Khan hopes he has the secret weapon to defeat Kell Brook with trainer Brian "BoMac" McIntyre.
The American knows plenty about the Brits, and is well-versed in their history before they meet.
McIntyre coached Crawford to a spectacular fourth-round KO by Brook in November 2020 at an empty MGM Grand Las Vegas.
After his defeat to Crawford in April 2019, Khan decided to let the past be forgotten.
Khan was able to be withdrawn from his corner in controversial fashion after six rounds.
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."
