Would Bradley Accept A 60/40 Or 70/30 Split With Khan?

[New England]

gary shaw has done a dismal job with tim bradley


he doesnt have any choice if he continues his current path


dude has no fanbase

blame the promoter, because he's not a bad fighter

additionally, hbo isnt going to pay him to fight a bum in his next fight

according to some he's got a garanteed mil plus coming in his next fight


put him in w/ khan
let him take his garantee plus a small

and khan takes the rest because he's the one making them the money


and once he becomes a free agent he should avoid gary shaw like the plague
he lets talent promote fighters. he lets good fights promote themselves
he doesnt invest anything in the promotions of their careers

I understand how this business works...I said Khan has done nothing to deserve the bigger split! By the time these two come to the table, Bradley could jump ship to one of the power house promoters, TR!? If that happens no way I see Bradley giving in to anything less than 50/50 or crossing the pond to fight

You obviously dont . . . Financially what sort of revenues will Bradley be adding? Nearly nothing. Khan on the other hand would be greatly increasing the revenue streams. Bradley can keep his 100% of nothing if he wants.
The facts are there, Amir khan sells tickets (9k in a few hours), Bradley doesnt (339 in 2 months). That is the reason why Khan deserves the bigger cut. Bradley doesnt fight on ppv, khan has for a few fights now. If it was a case of Khan fighting Mosely/Cotto/Margo then i would say he should accept a small cut as he isnt as well established as these guys in terms of selling etc. But Bradley deserving a 50/50 cut when he is selling 339 tickets for the first all american unification in decades? GTFO. Bradley is a bum, all he can hope for is to keep winning because once he loses he is going to fade away. Khan will lose sooner rather than later i think, but he wont have any problems drawing crowds even after he loses (ie. prescott loss).

The best thing for Bradley I think would be to fight Manny first, no doubt he would get KTFO but atleast he would be able to chalk it upto pac being superman, and he wouldnt really lose any credibility. When he loses to Khan though there isnt really anywhere for him to go from there

You do understand it goes by how well your promoted right? If Bradley jumps ship as he should the fight happens in the states with no less than 50-50...

There was plenty of promotion for the "superfight". Jumping ship really wont make much difference. You do realise when Khan was with his previous promotor he was still selling out 20k arenas?

And can you care to explain why Khan doesnt deserve it?
