Carl Froch looking forward to watching the 'brave' Amir Khan's next three fights

Carl Froch is looking forward to watching Amir Khan in action again and admires his bravery when it comes to who he fights... and that will include Kell Brook.

Amir is very, very brave when it comes to who he fights. He has not ducked anyone. He doesn't take any easy options and there are few fighters out there now that can say that.

Amir Khan is a very exciting addition to Sky Sports and Matchroom.

We know he is a big name and we know he is always in big fights and above all, we all know they are going to be entertaining.

Amir Khan has signed a three-fight deal with Matchroom and will be back in April...

He is 100 per cent worth watching, no matter what happens. The one thing you have to say about Khan is that no matter who he was in against and what the outcome was, it was spectacular.

Amir Khan is incredibly popular and has over 2m followers on Twitter, and whether people want to see him win, or get beat, people will tune in to see him because they know something will happen.

Amir seems to get booed whenever he walks into a boxing venue, so I am never sure what people make of him. Do they love him or loathe him? I don't know but I don't think that matters: everybody knows who Amir Khan is.

Highlights of Amir Khan's epic Las Vegas fight with Marcos Maidana in 2010.

He has a lot of tough fights and his resume stacks up when you look at who he's been in with. It might not be up there with The Cobra's yet, but 'Canelo', Danny Garcia, Marco Antonio Barrera, Marcos Maidana, Devon Alexander, the list goes on and with at least three more fights to consider, we will see who is next.

Even if the Brook fight still hasn't happened, it looks like it will now. People have given him stick for not fighting him yet but he was never going to just charge in and fight him, the business side had to be sorted.

Well now he is under Eddie Hearn, now they both seem to need each other more than ever, then it surely must happen.

Who will win? Well right now I would lean ever so slightly to Brook, but we need to see how he does up at super-welterweight and we of course, need to see Khan after almost two years out of the ring. The one thing we all know is, it will be worth watching his next three fights.
