[King Ju-Ju]

Ya I'm on the east side..Your on the west side if ya by Broadway,and you uptown over there made Dr shorty's nice..I'm telling you if this fight get done people are gonna be coming out in full support of Zab..Not to mention to see a good fight..

Yeah my Son's Mother is Dominican. I love Dominican women, they are sooooo ****ing sexy. Even the 40 year olds look hott!!! The teens going to high school look like grown women. Its crazy!!! But Judah-Khan would be good man, I just think Zab needs to relax a lil bit. I don't think he should be demanding more money then Brdaley. That's ridiculous.

Great posts!

I get that Khan has a lot of fans, but right now the majority of them are in the U.K. Not only is this fight in the U.S. but the majority of Khans fights have been and will be here in the future because Khan wants to be a big U.S. star. Khan was very fortunate to walk in to the pros and get with a promotional company willing to pay him a guaranteed million + for his fights. Very few fighters get that and have to work hard on their way up to get that kind of money.

But how many times has a Khan vs X fighter not happened because the opponent wants a better deal? A LOT. I could see if it were just a few, but the majority of offers that Team Khan and GBP have given to a new possible opponent end up not being made - yet it's the opponents fault and THEY are "Divas"? lol. If it was just one or two, well then maybe. But how many possible opponents now have been scratched because of money? Team Khan is setting a trend. Unfortunately Khan can go on and fight the McCloskeys of the world and still make his guaranteed Mill. Most of these other fighters don't have that luxury. Hell, even Bradley was given a very specific list of fighters that HBO would only accept as possible future opponents. I hope they do the same with Khan, but they probably wont because he would never end up fighting because everyone keeps "pricing themselves" out haha. Khan is going to end up running out of options. His only hope is to find up and comers willing to take the low end in order for a possible shot for the future. That's all fine and well but Khan wants the big boys with the titles, and the "I deserve more then you" Khan motto isn't going to work with them.

What if Guerrero ends up "pricing himself out"? Then what? Maidana? Doubtful. The only reason we got lucky enough to see the first fight is because Maidana was Khans mandatory and he forced a purse split bid. Remember before Maidana forced the bid that Team Khan said, .... wait for it....... Maidana was "pricing himself out". LOL.

*EDIT* I didn't realize that Maidana beating Morales made him mandatory to Khan again. This is a good thing, but I imagine Maidana will be forced to request a purse split bid again. It's rarely a good thing but in this case, thank God for mandatories... This is the fight that should be made over Judah or Guerrero anyway. This one could be a PPV demand and is a sure fire barn burner.

What a Awsome post this is and yes Khan wants all the god damn pie bro and when the opponent DOES deserve more money............................................. ....................THEY R PRICING THEMSELVES OUT!!!!! to me Maidana is Khan's biggest win and..................thats it!!!!!! he has not done anything beyond that at all and even that win was razor close of khan being in the verge of Being KO'd but i did give him hes respect of stepping up and fighting a Tough SOB who dont give a F*** about what u think about him in Maidana!!.. but this is where it stops where Khan always wants more than what hes getting cuz he already getting 1MIL per fight!!!!!!! WHAT???!!!! 1Mil per FIGHT??????WHAT!!!(lil jon voice) Idk khan has to stop this 'He priced himself out' thing..

People need to realize that JUDAH is the bigger draw and the bigger name in the U.S. He would be Khans most proven commodity aside from Barrera, but, much closer to his physical peak. Sure Judah has folded under pressure in big fights but he loses to top competition, no Breidis Prescott ko's on his record. Think about what Zab did for Mayweather/Cotto's career, he helped them sellout venues which they had never done before and create more exposure. Maybe Khan wouldn't have to hold his next fight in a 5,000 seat venue.

khan drew over 10,000 in his last fight.How much did judah get in his last
fight?Judah is a idiot.

It has been a decade since Zab, angered over ref Jay Nady's decision to halt the Kostya bout, placed his gloved hand around Nady's neck in a rage.
He was suspended for that little piece of self expression.

Today, his market worth is in name only.
Give him 25%, put it on free HBO and watch him run faster then Mosely on speed.
Khan is much too smart for the older man and his chin is reliable enough to withstand any lucky shot Judah may enjoy.

Here is what should happen.

For all the nuthugging morons who think Khan should keep 100% of the UK revenue and think that Judah has no value or appeal.

Let Khan keep 100% of the PPV $$ up to the dollar amount that he got against McCloskey.

Every buy above and beyond what Khan sold vs McCloskey will go to Judah.

It's fair to reason if say 100K people paid for Khan-McCloskey and 200K pay for Khan-Judah that the extra fans are tuning in because it's Zab Judah, not because of Amir Khan.

Obviously that isn't going to happen as the Pakistani *** isn't going to allow an opponent to get equal money.

Whenever the question is asked: Who will Khan fight next? The answer is always "Whoever will take the least amount of money to sign."

Past Prime? lol

I see this as a big fight for Khan even though Judah is well past his prime. Khan will be too fast for Judah but Judah has the power to rock Khan to sleep.

I see this being a very awkward fight for Khan but a win by UD.

Judah's only 32, same ****ing age as Manny Pacquiao, now you can take your head out of your ass, and start to think for yourself, instead of parroting, what you've heard from others, who dont know nothing. no, Judah is actually in his prime Now, just like Manny, 32.

I agree,I think 800k or something around that should be good for Zab..He should be thankful to be getting this shot,but I also think he should be paid well because Khan needs him imo..

[SpitBalla]

I can't wait until Judah doesn't get a fight with PAC and has to beg Khan for a fight.

It's pretty clear Judah is ducking Khan, because he doesn't want to lose his paper title, in case Arum let's him fight PAC. But I doubt Zab gets that fight.

It's probably best for Judah because would take his title no doubt about it. It's funny how all these guys are scared to face Khan.

juan diaz is 27,Is he in his prime as well?

[TRSMMaiden]

Judah has made it obvious now that he wants the fight so the ball is in Khans court to accept it and get the fight on. If Khan wants the fight then the fight will happen if Khan is worried (or not necesarily Khan himself but if Golden Boy Promotions are worried) that he will get beat then the fight will not happen.

Khan has said for ages that his aim is to unify the division before moving up to Welterweight. Bradley is ducking Khan for his own reasons so that leaves Khan with Judah who has the other belt. If Khan truly truly wants unification then he will order Golden Boy Promotions etc to take the Judah fight at 50/50.

Assuming Khan wins (which I think he would) there will be much bigger paydays ahead for a boxer who is still only 24 so letting Judah have 50/50 should not be a big deal.
