I agree. The fight should be sent to Purse Bid since Maidana has been the "Interim" Champ since he beat Ortiz last year. Purse bid states 65% Champ 35% Challenger. But Khan doesn't want a purse bid because then he will not be co-promoting jack.
If HBO is offering 2 mil for this fight, I can't blame Maidana for wanting half of that. Especially since Khan wasnt offered that amount when he fought Paulie. Maidana has been on HBO more than Khan and they obviously offered more money because he is fighting Maidana. It would be similar to the PWill vs Pavlik negotiations.
