Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: Paul McCloskey Likely, Peterson is Out!

Amir Khan - Marcos Maidana 2 please!!!!

This wont happen (not yet anyway). Would love to see it though.

If Bradley beat Alexander, he may face Maidana after before Khan (noway he faces Khan staright away)

Win, lose or draw Alexander will duck Khan and Maidana.


I see Khan facing Bradley or JMM after this fight.

A good 95% of all dudes not accepting this fight is due to recognition of McCloskey and most likely are American posters.

For the UK, this will be big. Why not take the fight?

This is how fighters comes through and make waves across the pond, you never know, he may even give Khan a good fight. Who even knew of Khan here before the Barrera fight?

Not many Americans here that for sure.

For the people living in the UK, get ready for a good fight.

If this is the case why not fight Kell Brook?

I'm don't even like the Kell Brook fight as of right now. But, if you want the U.K to get ready and a big fight for the U.K. Well fight Kell Brook at least.

This fight sucks.

Weak fight, HBO won't be picking this fight up, maybe highlights but due to the time difference between U.S & U.K, i doubt it'll be successful in the U.S, main even fights start around 9:45pm U.K time.

I hope HBO is gonna pick this fight up. Amir should keep on building his name up in the US.

I certainly hope not.

Peterson>Mccloskey. Khan might be saying this to make Peterson lower his demands. I don't see HBO picking up this fight so I can't see this happening.

[Sweet Jesus]

They better not pick it up if this is the fight. But, I have a feeling they will cuz' of Golden boy.

Damn, I hate those muthafuckers.

Unless they're gonna fight at 5am England time, I highly doubt HBO is gonna show a tape delayed version of Khan-McCloskey.

[Terrel]

yea well if khan wants to be a euro star then thats cool. but if he wants to go mainstream mc closkey isnt gonna do it. this fight generates no buzz stateside.

Khan fights Bradley or JMM after this fight?

Not much damage done to his Stateside buzz. Depend on who he fights next (after McCloskey that is).

Paul who? I really hope HBO doesn't approve this fight. Why not fight Ortiz? or a Prescott rematch would be interesting enough to build fan interest.

[Evil Abed]

This feels a little like the Salita fight.

Or exactly like the Salita fight.

Really, I'm not even an Ortiz fan but I would prefer that over this.
