          I never said it would be easy.

          Styles make fights.

          I simply stated the reason Kahn wanted the fight.

            what other fights?

            the only other opponent discussed was maidana and marquez.

            maidana is high risk , low reward , low exposure.

            marquez didn't want to fight khan.

              khan wanted marquez.

              don't blame him.

              that's one of those star-making , name-making fights.

              malignaggi is a solid alternative.

                That's who I meant. I would have thought the Maidana fight would be excellent.

                  it would've been. dangerous too.

                  i see why gbp didn't want it.

                  khan gains nothing but could lose everything.

                  prospects you don't want to risk unless it's for big gain.

                  malignaggi is MORE MONEY , MORE EXPOSURE , BIGGER NAME , BIGGER EVENT plus it's less risky.

                  can't blame gbp considering khan is a newly signed , 23 yr. old prospect.



                  plus a decision loss to malignaggi is better than a ko loss to maidana no?

                    I guess it is to the general public. But if he doesn't face Maidana soon, boxing fans will say he was hiding.
