    Sheeeet.

    yeah because the B*TCH they paid 1.1 Million to fight a Soft Punching fighter doesn't have the balls to get into the ring with any of the Top fighters in his Division, by the way isn't the guy in your Photo asking for more money as well for his fight with Khan...EXACTLY!

    **** what you guys are saying, you guys are not boxers for a living and you are not taking punches to the head for a living, these guys have every ****in right to try and get the most money they can for what they do, these guys could do like Khan and avoid all the top fighters in their division but they are willing and WANT to fight each other which seems to be a rare thing is boxing today so yes they should be reward for that

      This fight needs to get made already...

        That said. STFU AND FIGHT!
        Khan brings more money than anyone at 140 who isnt Hatton or Pac, Those two expecting Khan's sort of pay is gullible but if they get it more power to them.

              I lay somewhere in the middle of this I guess. To me, they look like bitches for crying about money when everybody knows these are tough economic times. But by the same token, HBO has a fresh budget then and it's the first meaningful fight of the year.

                understandable, but this isn't Bradley v Peterson.

                This is arguably the number 1 and 2 (or 3 whichever way you look at it) at 140. Devon can draw a reasonable crowd in St. Louis and with a B side like Bradley he should do even more. HBO should also get a reasonable PPV numbers especially with the hardcore fans.

                Including all that $1.1 isn't alot.

                    Two best? Alexander lost to the guy Amir dominated. .

                      The fight would not be on PPV, And this two would only draw the hardcore boxing fans so i dont know where the money would come from, According to the article shaw is offering Bradley 1.1M so maybe HBO offered shaw 1.5M or 2M for Bradley (Who knows)?
