    judah should accept the 60/40. HBO have given khan the date of july 23 NOT zab judah. khan fights on july 23 regardless. if judah doesnt take this fight he makes peanuts fighting a nobody on an unheard of tv network. he makes much more fighting for 40% against khan.

    I would understand if judah turned down the fight because he could make more money fighting someone else, but he cant! the only way judah could get more money is fighting pac or mayweather (neither of those fights will happen)

    These negotiations are just judah trying to maximise his final big payday.

      Not a ZabJudah fan but i think he is holding all the cards on this one. If Khan ducks Judah by using his repetitive overpricing nonsense, Amir will be forced to fight Maidana or Vacate the title. Right now it looks like Khan doesnt want to fight either man and i really dont blame him. Judah and Maidana both are capable of giving Khan Prescott flashbacks, as Maidana already did, and Khan would be much better served going after the light punching Bradley and hope for a decision win. Khan v Maidana would be another tough war for Amir but i think thats the more winnable fight for Khan, cause i think Judahs speed and power offset any advantage Khan has over other opponents at 140. Neither Khan or Judah has a great chin but theres a big difference between getting KOed by alltime great Kostya Tszyu and getting KTFU by some guy named Prescott. I expect Khan to avoid Judah and to use "overpricing" when placing blame...but is that really a surprise anymore, hell its expected from #Khan-notmakeadeal

        Judah is the most irrelevant beltholder right now, and was insignifant before gaining his strap. He fought Matthysse on HBO and won, but HBO preffered to pay Matthysse for another HBO appearance. I grant, Judah has been doing the right thing to make himself relevant again. But, he's not in a position to make demands. Seems like he's trying to duck Khan by asking for more than his current worth is. Should he fight and beat Khan, he'd be the man at 140 and the sky would be the limit. Wake up Zab...stop ducking.

          Khan did a pretty nice dance when that Prescott jab hit him and his legs wobbled. 20 seconds later he was done.
          He should be one to talk.

          That is all. Carry on.

            60/40 is only okay if that includes the overseas money. Team Khan wants all of the overseas money and 60/40 of the US money not going to happen. Let can rematch Maidana then lulz. He don't want any parts of a rematch.

                  I think Khan beats judah anyday, that is why Judah is holding out for the highest possible earnings. Nothing wrong there, but I hope he doesn't play hardball to the extent the door slams shut on him.
                  Khan has become accustomed to making big paydays. With sellout arenas and big PPV (under skytv), he did really well in the UK. In the US, they are trying to build him up to Las Vegas and PPV attraction. Fighting in the US, he loses his earning power in the UK. His PPV is seen in the wee hours of the morning...not quite Ricky Hatton whose fans stays up for his fights.
                  I believe the thinking is fight and beat Bradley, and he moves oh so closer to stardom. The British fans know Bradley who went over there and dethroned Junior Witter.
                  So this still make Judah irrelevant, because Bradley is the money ticket. Khan can fight anyone on the July date on HBO, and keep the higher percent of the purse. Business still has to be done with Bradley at a later date. It's economics, and even in boxing they weight the risk to reward ratio.
                  Floyd Mayweather Jr. to all the greats of every generation has done it.

                      If this fight doesn't happen over the venue and 50/50 60/40 split, if they can settle on 55/45 and pick a damn place to fight then this says everything anyone would need to know about what is wrong with boxing today.
