This is what still amazes me about taking that Alexander fight to Detroit. Had they done it in th' Lou, Bradley could've claimed he was partially responsible for what would've been a pretty good gate. Now he'll have to go hat-in-hand to the Kahn negotiations.
    the billionaire owner of the stadium paid a lot of money to hold the fight.

    it's not that the promoters wanted to hold the fight in detroit.

    they paid them well for going to fight there.

      Those 6,000 fans were not there because of Bradley.
      They were there because Don King worked his magic and knows how to put asses in seats. He did manage to put just under 10,000 for Alexander/Kotelnik in St Louis.
      A 50/50 fight would not be fair because a fight in England for Khan would easily put 20,000 people in seats, not to mention the PPV numbers Khan would do.

          50/50 is fair just cause they need each other,neither can move forward without facing the other fighter..They each want Mayweather and Pac and are standing in each others way to get to their goal..Khan may be a draw granted,but Bradley is the unified Champ and has all the gold..Just face it they need each other 50/50 is fair..

            I disagree that they need each other. Khan could take on Ortiz, Judah, a rematch with Maidana. All of which would sell just as well or better than Bradley.
            I would love to see the fight, but I know it ain't going to be at 50/50 and hope Shaw and Bradley are smart enough to realize that.

                Khan never wins the ring belt that way and is known as a duck threw out his career for that move..Old saying you wanna be the best ya got to beat,well ya know the rest..

                  Bradley has never sold a single PPV in his entire life. 50/50 is bull****. But I dont care about that cuz this is the fight that should be made at this point in time. This will be a easier fight than Maidana. After this fight the winner can call out Pacquiao or Mayweather when Larry or Kellerman do the post fight interview. THATS the money fight not Khan-Bradley.

                      Great fight for boxing. This one is a coin-flip. I have been a Timothy Bradley supporter but the smart money if any is on a draw.
