      Title is again kinda misleading. He doesnt say anything about "turning his back on Britain".

      Everyone knew he'd be fighting in America for the majority of the time.

        Way to grow your fanbase. Khan needs to learn to think more before opening his mouth. He's came out with statements like this about the UK before, he shouldn't forget where he came from and how he became popular. He's making enough money to come back and take less on one occassion. Even when "taking less", he's still making a hell of a lot of money and more than most.

        I personally think he's a prick and hope he get's knocked out. Having said that, I would love to see Mayweather-Khan in the UK if he beats McCloskey and Bradley. I do not think he will beat Bradley though. Khan has alot of flaws.

          It shows you how much he cares about his own fans when he denies them the chance to see him on the biggest sports channel on UK TV for free and decides to go with a shitty small time PPV outfit in order to fleece them again.....and now he says this.


          He could have made even more fans with Sky Sports 3 viewers.......very short sighted and greedy.

            Bradley would definitely happen the U.S. and if he moved up to welterweight after a fight against Berto or someone like that wouldn't happen in Britain. Didn't realize Khan was that pissed though.

                Keep winning and I'm sure they'll gladly welcome Khan back with open arms.

                    Khan is becoming an absolute pillock and is beginning to sound as ****y as his pre-Prescott days (he will win this though obviously; McC is bit like a southpaw Malignaggi but a bit less durable).
