Comments Thread For: Schaefer: Khan-Maidana Nearly Finalized For Las Vegas

[wazaa.]

so why did it take Maidana writing the sanctioning body just to get the fight signed? Khan was being a diva and now he had no choice but to sign the fight or he wouldve flushed his career down the drain since everyone wouldve jumped off his bandwagon from ducking maidana. Dont forget Khan already payd Maidana off before for not fighting him. Theres a reason he didnt take the fight the first time and was skeptical to take it this time talking all this trash on twitter. If i was a boxer and hated the guy so much as he does I would be the first to sign on the line and say lets do this.

Joe Cal and Roy Jones wanted to fight each other and did the deal via text msg. Thats how true warriors do it!

Khan has 2 great people in his country to look up to.

Ricky Hatton and Joe.

Hatton never ducked anyone and always fought the BEST.

I give a fighter 100x respect for fighting the best and losing rather than Ducking someone and fighting not the best just to win.

WTF did you say?!

you got me,but thats the way I think it works,like I said ,I could be wrong.

You are wrong but no offense meant. Any promoter sanctioned by the sanctioning body, in this case the WBA, gets to bid.

Believe me that's why it got done. Golden Boy wants chance of losing this fight.

This is why Khan gets a MINIMUM of $1.5 million and Madiana get $550,000 and a large raise if he actually wins.

lol..I swear i can see it now...

I can also see it now from the other side of the coin.....If Amir wins (which i think he will easily via 12 rd desicion), its gonna be then....well Miadana was made for him...all power nor tech. Then they will cry for the winner of bradley-alexander....then if he wins that one (great fight could go either way), then its....well one was just in a war, or, he was coming off a loss ect.... Amir cant win for losing.

Its not like Floyd, as Amir at least has talked about fighting the tops in the division (and i think he will after he destroys Miadana). I think you offer Amir 25 mil to fight Bradley....you think he turns it down? No way!!!!!!! I think you see what im getting at.
