Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Stands To Pocket 13 Million in Canelo Showdown

It truly is incredible how dumb some of you are. It isn't hard to work out that the following is probably what would make up this $13m total. $6m guarantee from GBP $ from BoxNation $ from sponsorships $ broadcasters in the Middle East maybe $ from merchandise maybe And other things I forgot to list.

GB pays 13 mil to avoid GGG Genius..... It looks like Team Golovkin will pass on $13mil to avoid Canelo.

I'll reserve judgment until I'm sure this is not another Amir Khan lie

Manny should have fought Khan I am hearing Pac vs Bradley lost money

Hearn should have paid the 10 million

I'm not buying this $13mill talk. Initially it was reported he had a guarantee of $6mill, with no ppv upside. I imagine this $13mill talk is stemming off UK ppv sales off BoxNation. No way UK ppv sales are doing another $7mill.

He should spend it on a new chin.

Well.... After all the medical bills, following the brutal KO he's going to get, he'll probably be left with less than 5 millions, and that's if he gets lucky. Worst case scenario: His family will inherit his money once he gets KILLED by Gingerboy.

11 million for him probably 13 million for Canelo, then you have the undercard and HBO's cut to pay for too; GB better hope this farce doesn't flop.

That's an insane payday... He can probably fight Brook even after he gets savagely beaten on Saturday night, though it will be for a lot less money.

Now it makes sense. Get well paid for a beating and collect another pay day back at 147 afterwards.

I have to agree, where is the money coming from? Barroso vs Crolla is a better fight for way less. I'll get my boxing fix there and I'll have to read about KvC, or wait for the replay. Lmao are you serious? Barroso and Crolla aren't even a tenth of the name of Amir Khan and Canelo Alvarez who were both in the top 8 highest earners in boxing category last year.

Damn, Khan has had a successful prizefighting career. £9 million here. If does o.k. another several million vs Brook. Well done to him. Canelo is a proper money man then. Surely, even if you're Danny Garcia or all the other welters you're looking at that and thinking.......i'll fight Canelo! Canelo is in a position now though it seems where he can be have the cards heavily stacked in his favour. Not a good thing.

A nice 9 million pound payday plus the Brook payday. No brainer to fight Canelo first then Brook.

Well done Khan, this is what smart prizefighter gotto do.I totally agree! Sometimes you just have to "DARE TO BE GREAT!"

Well done Khan, this is what smart prizefighter gotto do.

If kahn beats canelo, Floyd should make him number 50. **** hes been asking for so long .Kahn should make 20 to 30 mill if they're fair. He does need to get back at Garcia if he can.Floyd would require that. Kahn wants the fights no one else is asking for. We don't hear Danny asking for floyd.

No guts no glory. Kahn will embrace fighting ggg, and give ggg problems. Kahn is all heart . Can't knock him on that.

Your numbers are probably accurate. No where in the article did it say that Khan was guaranteed $13 million. It said he stands to make $13 million. He stands to make $20 million if the fight sells well enough, but I am sure he is only guaranteed $6 million. Its prob 6mill with goldenboy not including the money he makes from UK. Including money from UK i can see 13mill no doubt. I remember reading Hatton made more than Floyd in their fight cuz he got the UK money.

Props to Khan for taking a dangerous fight, but I feel he's overpaid. There are a lot of fighters out there that deserve that kinda payday more than he does IMO.
