How to watch Amir Khan vs Kell Brook: TV channel, start time and live stream

Friday's weigh-in for Amir Khan vs Kell Brook was dramatic with both fighters exchanging words and having to be separated by security.

Brook weighed in at 148.3lbs while Khan came in a pound lighter at 147.3lbs which is one pound below the catch-weight of 10 stone 9 pounds (149lbs).

This means that both fighters will avoid a penalty and can compete on a level playing field in one of British boxing's most anticipated fights of 2022.

The fight will see two fighters with lots of issues with one another facing off after this week's press conference descended into unpleasant scenes with Sky Sports having to apologise for offensive language used.

After the weigh-in Brook said to Sky Sports: "The weight wasn't an issue - this is a fight I could get up for easily so I've been on it for a long (time)."

"I feel amazing - I've done all the hard work, now it's about fuelling up and coming in cool, calm and collected. - I've got a job to do. I've got to go out there and be me.”

Khan did not speak to the cameras after the weigh-in after Thursday’s fiery press conference resulted in both fighters being warned for their offensive comments.

When is the fight?

Khan will face Brook at Manchester's AO Arena on Saturday, February 19 and ring walks for the bout are expected between 10:20pm and 10:30pm.
