        Amir on his Twitter page said the following:

        "Come on guys why hate I'm fighting paulie malanaggi and wil K.O him. I am willing to make a loss in money in this fight, just to shut mouths"

        It looks like Amir is giving a litle bit of his purse up to make the fight happen.

              Khan will probably still make over $1M as he's apparently getting all of the UK TV PPV as well.

              Getting paid seven figures to fight a handpicked opponent in a fight designed to make you look good and earn you even more money in the future. Nice work if you can get it.

                Yeah exactly, he probably makes about £500,000 from the UK PPV anyway.

                  Khan is willing to lose money to make this fight happen. That deserves respect right there.

                    Khan is far too good for Paulie. He'll break him down.
