Amir Khan has claimed that his upcoming bout against Kell Brook is the crucial fight of his career.

The highly anticipated grudge match between Khan and Brook is just a few weeks away and 'King' has made it known that this fight means a lot to him. Khan recently revealed that he believes his legacy is on the line against Kell Brook.

Khan also suggested that if it were to be one of his final fights, he would want to do everything he can to win. Speaking to FightHype, Khan said:

"This means everything to me, my legacy, my whole boxing career because I have to win this fight. If this is one of my last big fights, I want to make sure I shine, I look good in it. I don't want to be remembered as a fighter who was really good in his mid-age and as he got older he kind of fell off there."
