Talks for a much-mooted fight between Amir Khan and Kell Brook are underway, says Eddie Hearn, though the promoter says there is still a very, very long way to go before an agreement is made.For the first time, however, Hearn is adamant there is a real desire from both fighters to finally secure a date.Matchrooms Hearn is exploring a possible fight between the two -- which would be Britains biggest outside of the heavyweight division -- for May 2017.After years of Brook aggressively pursuing his rival, Khan recently became the aggressor on Twitter when, in a post referring to the IBF welterweight champion, he wrote: Ready when you are.Hearn believes Brooks recent fight with Gennady Golovkin has grown his profile to the extent Khan is finally tempted to face him, but has also stressed that previous negotiations have progressed further than the present ones without actually succeeding.Khan recognises the size of the fight, hes up for the challenge, Hearn said.Kells value has increased considerably, and there seems to be a real desire from both sides to get it done, but weve been here before.Weve held talks before, but theres never been the calling out from Amir that there is now, so thats why I say there seems a real desire from both sides. Not just both sides but both fighters.Theres a very, very long way to go, but well work quietly behind closed doors to try to finally get a fight over the line that I believe has to happen.Its still early days. Weve been further down the road before in terms of negotiations than we are now, and I was confident then. Im hopeful rather than confident. But when both fighters are calling each other out, its always a good sign.One possible reason Khan, 30, could be tempted is the likelihood Brook will struggle to return to the 147 pound welterweight limit having challenged Golovkin at middleweight.In Khans past fight, against Canelo Alvarez, was also fought at middleweight. Like Brook, he was stopped, but unlike Brook he has no history of struggling to make 147 pounds.Hearn insists Brook, also 30, planned to return to welterweight regardless, perhaps to defend his title against Americas Errol Spence, and that both the fighter and those around him are confident he can still make weight.When we had our meeting a couple of weeks ago the plan was very much I dont want to vacate my title, therefore Im staying at welterweight, Hearn said.Hes spoken to a nutritionist, to his team, and we feel like he can make welterweight. Can he be as effective as at 154 pounds? We dont know, but he can make welterweight.This was all so he could fight Errol Spence, before the Khan fight looked possible.Khans a big name, has a high profile. There are other options for him as there are for Brook. Joe Staley Super Bowl Jersey . 8 Iowa State on Saturday, sending the Cyclones to their third consecutive loss.

ATHENS, Ga. -- Yante Maten showed no ill effects from a 10-day layoff for exams, scoring 14 of his 18 points in the first half and grabbing 15 rebounds and Georgia beat Louisiana-Lafayette 73-60 on Wednesday night to halt the Ragin Cajuns eight-game winning streak.J.J.

Bryce Washington had 11 points and 18 rebounds, and Frank Bartley added 11 points and 11 boards.We had to beat a good team, said Georgia coach Mark Fox. They just won eight games in a row and will win more. This was a good game to help us get better.Maten had help inside from Derek Ogbeide who grabbed 13 rebounds. He blocked six shots and Maten blocked five.Fox was delighted with Parker, the junior wing who sat out last year and a good part of the year before that with an Achilles injury.He has been really rusty, said Fox. Essentially, he went two years straight without playing. It will take him some time to chip the rust away. He is playing the best he has in his whole career, and tonight the rust began to come off his jump shot.You just dont feel the same as how you felt before the injury, Parker said. Im getting there. I got in the film room and noticed my shooting mechanics were off.Georgia scorred the first 11 points of the game, putting the Rajin Cajuns in chase mode for the rest of the game.dddddddddddd The Ragin Cajuns, who entered with the nations seventh-ranked offense, didnt score a field goal until Bartley hit a 3-pointer with 12:17 to go in the half.We never got in a rhythm in the first half, said Louisiana-Lafayette coach Bob Marlin. They took away our transition because they have three guys back.

The Bulldogs quickly responded with three baskets by three different players to go up 47-38.
