Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Talks Ariza, McCloskey, Bradley, More

[Pullcounter]

Since Bradley can't sell seats.

Since Khan and Maidana rematch would be welcomed by HBO while Bradley and Alexander wouldn't

and since Khan can help generate UK PPV

then Bradley should accept 25%

khan will get the bigger cut, but if he wants the fight in the UK, he's gonna have to put up the money to get timmah over there.

trust this... khan would rather face the light hitting timmeh instead of maidana again.

Khan seems to want to call all the shots. He wants to fight Bradley in the summer in England. Last I checked, Bradley is the #1 guy with 2 belts which seems to me as though he has the upper hand in negotiations. Next he'll be asking for 60/40 in his favor.

how many tickets were sold to bradley vs alexander, two undefeated americans regarded as number 1 and 2 in the division fighting in their own country. thats right not nearly enough. khan sells out 20,000 seat arenas in england and is a ppv draw. the fight should definately be in england and khan definately deserves at least 60/40 as he brings by far the most financial wise to the table.

yet more hatred for khan on this website. is it because hes british or his asian origin or a combination of both. surely he should be afforded a tune up fight before the big light welter showdown. when he beats bradley i will laugh in all your faces!

neither. it's because

For a unification like this it will be a 50/50 split, wherever it's held. And it will be held wherever makes the most money. Khan wanted the Maidana fight to be in the UK, but it wouldn't have made as much there as in the US, so he had to accept it being in the US.

Irrelevant. Bradley is universally recognised as the man at Jr Welterweight, so to criticise Khan for wanting to fight Bradley next, rather than someone he's already beaten, is ridiculous.

People are just desperate for excuses to keep hating, it's pathetic.

Maidana needs a good win to get himself back into the title picture. He should fight Alexander next. If he beats Alexander convincingly, then the Bradley-Khan winner will certainly fight him.

Lots of fighters have smaller brains that Khan and bigger mouths. What about Mayorga? Briggs? Khan says some ****** things sometimes but he's not thick, he's just got a habit of forgetting to press the clutch before opening his mouth. And the hate for him is mostly completely irrational. He said nothing controversial in this particular article, people are just hating him because they want to hate him, not for anything he actually said or did.

Is Because Khan comes off like a ****** Jerk, i dont care what your religion is , just dont throw it in my FACE!!, And ACT LIKE A BRASH ASS@#@LE!!, like your tough, i still remember when that "British Sissy" brought his Islamic horde of dirts bags to New York for "Malinaggi fight", he was tryna punk and intimidate Paulie in his own back yard, Khan is a scrawny Uk Style fighter, and i dont care what Freddy Roach teaches this Pig Faced Moron, he still always be stiff and uk oriented in his style, AND when he faces a true slick fighter with popp, his ass is GRASS, he aint Prince Nasseem Hamed. Nuff Said

one thing we agree on is he is no prince naseem... however he is the best in the division and you will eat your words when he beats Bradley..... his religion should have no relevance so why mention it.... fighters of all races and religions have out of control entourages..... and oh yeah..... he owned malinaggi!

[Dave Rado]

As for the silly claims that he shoves his religion down people's throats, when he hardly ever mentions his religion, the worst current boxer for shoving his religion down people's throats is Bradley, but he never gets criticised for it. His post-fight interviews are sickening.

Khan would get rocked by any puncher he lost to madaina when he moves to welter he would get murdered

Yeah right.

Judge: Jerry Roth 114-111 to Khan.
Judge: C.J. Ross 114-111 to Khan.
Judge: Glenn Trowbridge 113-112 to Khan.

Also, HBO scored it 113-112 to Khan.
The Ring scored it 115-111 to Khan.

So you're being ridiculous.

ANDRE WARD is the worst!
