    Word of mouth isn't exactly the most reliable source to appease the critics.

    If that’s the case, Amir should just take a smaller purse and let Peterson or Prescott have a pay-day. He'll be getting paid, staying busy and fighting a credible opponent, as opposed to sitting on his hands waiting for Bradley. And for the record, he beats them both -- so it’s not a risk/reward thing either.

      i dont know but sounds to me that amir "con" wants a larger piece of every pie. i know he is the draw but i think he wants pacman money and trying to give his opponent peanuts..sounds like another media hype saying the opponents are asking too much but it seems that he doesnt want to give his opponents a slice of the amir"con" pie.

        I read somewhere, Peterson was asking for $600k.

          Say what you want but Khan commands the money, especially in the 140 division

          I mean you could let the top 5 JWW fight in their homes towns and combined they won't draw as many people as khan will draw in the UK

              I'd like to know what they offered McCloskey.

              McCloskey should go public with it. They should be getting about 200k at least as it's a PPV event, that's even if these fighters haven't earned that kind of dough before. You can't have a fight with Amir Khan by himself ffs.

                How much is too much I wonder??If either fighter is asking 3 to 500K I think that's about right..If they are in the 6 to a mill then yes they are over pricing them selfs..

                  they obviously don't wanna pay, so then who's the money hungry one. you wouldn't think they would turn down a reasonable 6 figure payday, otherwise you are just an idiot, if that's the case why worry about them. Your really only as good as the company you keep get it company you keep r d r r get it r d r r

                    It sounds like Khan's team are just cheap!

                      If "money hungry" fighters like McCloskey and Peterson are pricing themselves out of the Khan fight, maybe lesser demands by Breidis Prescott will get him back on to Khan's radar. But don't hold your breath.
