    considering Maiana got something like 600k for fighting Khan, I'd say McCloskey or Peterson should only get something like 300-400k. I'm not sure what they're demanding but anything more than that is unrealistic, especially considering that Peterson only got $100k for his last fight against Ortiz.

      Khan is not an exciting fighter to watch...Yet i can respect his skills... So i dont consider him close to a cash cow... People gotta stop treating him as if he's Pacquiao... He's not! he just shadows...

          Khan is like the next stop that these fighters look for when they know they cant get the Pac/Mayweather fights.

            What?! Yes he is, he has blistering hand speed which can overwhelm opponents but can also get KTFO at any moment, that to me is exciting.

              Both these guys are ducking Khan because they know that he will ruin them and their careers. Thats why they're asking for shed loads of money. So they'll have enough to retire on when Khan finishes them lol :3some:

                By the sounds of the article it seems as though Khans team are only willing to offer the same as the other fighter got paid in their last fights or fractionally more which is unfair imo. Even if it is massively more than they got before (ie. 300-400k) this is a bloody world title ppv fight! Thats probably still not even 20% of the pot!!!

                    fight Prescott, you know ..the guy who put you to sleep in 54 seconds of the FIRST ROUND!!! . . if Khan truly beleives he is made for greatness then he must avenge that defeat, no matter what he does the rest of his career, he must beat Prescott, thats how i see it. . and can yall plz stop calling for a Khan-Mayweather bout, first of all, Floyd is occupied with other problems, second of all, Floyd will crush him.

                      Prescott's a bum, that fight would be a bad mismatch.

                      I wanna see Amir face a challenge.
