Comments Thread For: Marcos Maidana: I'll Go To England, Finish Amir Khan Off

[millcitymauler]

If Maidana had good sportsmanship then Khan probably would've gave him a rematch. But he doesnt. Would you give a rematch to someone when right at the opening bell you try to touch gloves as a sign on respect and your opponent throws a hayemaker? I know I wouldn't.

...you touch gloves when you meet with the ref in the center of the ring BEFORE the fight, and again after the final bell - anything in between is "protect yourself at all times". outta here with that Shane Mosley bull****.

wait...ortiz said he wanted a rematch with maidana?? i never knew that... do you have a link??

He always says it. Ive heard Maidana turned down a rematch

What are you talking about?

Maidana got paid more money than Khan in that fight???

i never said that. Of coarse khan got paid more, but because maidana sent a petition to the org. Khan got paid less and maidana more not as a whole, but as a part of the perentage? get it?

dont act like its not a winnable fight for victor. If Ortiz had some composere he wouldv knocke maidana out easy. This is coming from a big maidana fan

I know. I wasn't impying that. Honestly that fight was a little chaotic it could have gone either way, but ortiz quit and Maidana was willing to die in the ring, therefore he put a beating on Ortiz in the last rounds.

What i'm saying is that he will get more money fighting Khan than Ortiz. And the fact that he has a loss against Khan and a win against Ortiz is a Bonus to be trying to get the fight with Khan

fair eanough, but i think khan deserves a fight with the bradley alexander winner. A rematch with marcos would be a step back for khan right now for the simple reason you pointed out that khan already has a W over him. Maidana should just keep winning and eventually he will earn a rematch against Amir. I hope that happens one day.

Khan is but Khan gets about £1 mil if you include the UK the opposition dont want to take £150- £200k.

Peterson made about $75k against Ortiz Khan offered him 200k he turned it down and wanted 600k.

Oh, ok. Thanks.

Where did you get all these information about how much each fighter wins in each fight?

Schaefer from Golden boy stated Peterson was offered 200k but wanted 600k.
The Ortiz and Peterson purse details was posted here by some on previously.
Khan has a 1.25 mil "guarantee" from golden boy which they dont usually end up paying him from the HBO money that is why Khan says every one is pricing them selves out as he does not want to take a pay cut.
