    I can cosign 60/40 in Kahn's favor but him keeping 100% of all the UK money would turn anyone off. Kind of down plays a fighters value. Throw Zab a bone.

      Also, if khan doesnt have an opponent there is not going to be any income from the UK. So at least a 25% just to be his opponent.

        Zab's boxing skills is on par with some of the best, Ray Leonard, Hagler, Hearns, Mayweather, to name a few. His mental approach to the game was his downfall. He seems to have gotten his head in check which makes him a serious threat to anyone he fights. Khan knows this and is afraid to get into the ring with such a gifted boxer.

        Even though Bradley is a very good fighter, he is not as skilled as Judah (but he is mentally tougher) and Khan feels that he has a better match-up with Bradley, hence the better offer.

          I agree with you on that. Zab Judah was something special before his chicken dance, melt down against Kosta Tszyu. Since, he's been bouncing up and down like a see-saw emotionally. Now, with Sweet Pea in his corner, he seems to have found his focus. Have to see him against a threat inorder to see how good he has really gotten mentally. Mathysse was a test for him (Did he have Whitaker then?) Last fight he did really well. Before I go saying Zab is a changed fighter, I have to see him in the ring against someone like Bradely, Kahn or any other regarded fighter at 140.

He has the style to make for a good fight. Promoters are killing the sport. Make the deal work for both and get them in the ring.
            lol,Aint nobody pay to see zab.Hell when judah was last on hbo,It only
            got about 700,000 viewers.Numbers dont lie,Nobody cares about him.

              Zab has been in a lot of high profile fights and still has name value regardless of how well he fared in them. He deserves at least near purse parity.

              It is a risky fight for both Khan and Judah. I hope it gets made. It would be a great fight.

                You cannot go by one fight. There are many out there, like me, who would never miss one of his fights if we can help it. He also seems to be taking his career seriously again and that doesn't hurt.

                      amir khan does this to every fighter thats a threat.its to the point wether i don't give a dam if he fights anymore. khan is always saying that this is a business. its very interesting that prescott is asking for less than any opponent and khan won't fight him.
