Froch got paid quite a bit by Showtime for his last two fights. Both are PPV in the UK, Khan sells more PPVs here but he doesn't get the money from America like Froch has recently.
Barrera and Hatton have been friends for years, IMO Hatton shouldn't have been neutral just because Barrera was fighting someone from the same country as him.
How many years have they known each other??? Am sure they met at one of Hatton's fight which isnt mor than 4 years ago, Am glad Hatton was sensible enough not to walk down with him to face Khan because he also is friends with Khan.
Just like Khan took the neutral way of not walking Pacquiao down to face Hatton or predicting who would win, Not everybody has hate in their hearts and like i said before Barrera and castillo has issues dating back to when they were both young, Its easier for him to walk Hatton down oppose to Hatton who doesnt really have anything against Khan.
Change Khan's name with Witterand am sure Hatton would be singing Barrera while walking Barrera down into the ring against Witter.

BOTH Frankie and Amir are too small to be talkin' **** to Froch......no need to hype up feuds or a war of words between fighters whose weightclasses are 20-30 pounds apart.....makes no sense!!!....I wish they ALL would just STFU!!!!

LOL @ Froch makes more money than Amir Khan.
Khan used 1 million pounds to open a gym and to date has donated over £200,000 in charities.
He has reebok sponsoring him, gets a 7 figure payday in every fight/his fights are on PPV most of the times with a wild sold-out crowd regardless of where he fights in the UK.
Froch didn't/coudn't even sell out in his own home town in Nottingham.
Truth is before the Jermain Taylor fight, What Carl Froch made in 24 fights, Amir probably made in 2 fights as he has been getting high paydays since he started his pro career, maybe this is what other boxers dont like because Khan can get paid that much fighting a scrub whilst others wont even get paid as much as him even if they are fighting a big name and Khan aint.Last edited by Parody; 11-27-2009, 08:34 AM.

Originally posted by Clegg View PostFroch said one thing about Khan, since then Khan has since given about 4 interviews crying about it and saying he might leave the UK.
Khan said that all the UK guys should support each other. I don't really agree with that.
I remember when Hatton fought Castillo, Barrera came with Hatton to the ring rather than picking based upon nationality, but when Barrera fought Khan, Hatton didn't seem to want to do the same. I didn't really think much of that decision.
As for Khan and Gavin claiming that Froch is jealous...Froch has a better record than Khan and has shown a willingness to fight anyone, whereas Khan is being carefully matched. Froch probably makes more money per fight as well.
Khan fights on PPVs against bums and poeple in the UK buy it.
