    Wrong. Amir could have easily fought in the UK and make the same if not more money.

      Khan stops Peterson late. 11th round.

      Peterson wins max 4 rounds.

        But fighting in the U.K for this fight wouldn't of got him exposure in the U.S, which is the point of him fighting in the U.S.

        The FACT is that Khan is struggling to sell tickets, for both Maidana & Judy fights, a lot of give aways, Lamont has more of a chance to attract more crowds in his hometown then Khan has at Vegas or Atlantic City.

        I wouldn't be surprised if GBP haven't been making much profit off Khan from the gate sales.

          Everyone is struggling to sell tickets in the US unless your name is Pacquiao. Fact is its a working progress for Khan. The Judah fight sold more than the Maidana fight and the Maidana sold more than the Malignaggi fight.

          Golden Boy is building Khan up.

              Duh, why else would he be going to other places?

              DC is Peterson's hometown so of course that helps sell tickets. Also it is a lot closer for UK fans tio fly over too.
