Is Khan the money man of the 140lb div?Fact or Fiction

[flat1985]

Of course he is as much as i hate him like you do but thats the way it is.

Yes he is. He has an exciting style plus there's always the chin factor for the haters. I think the fact that he's a British fighter able to make it over in the US speaks volumes for itself. I assume this is why he gets the winner of the little GB tourney - maximum income. Garcia has the advantage of having the belts

I'd say he's bigger in the US than in the UK. Pretty much every boxing fan I know in the UK doesn't follow him; let alone buy tickets/PPV to his fights.

Once again..I'm not saying who has more money..But who is the money guy at 140lb..It's clearly not Khan when he just got paid nothing to fight Diaz..Oh and Peterson was the reason the fight sold well at the Gate,not Khan..

KHAN!

Regular TV? It's a subscription channel, and it was very successful as well. Remember he also has his own promotional company, so he doesn't pay 35% to Goldenboy. It's pretty much undeniable. You're letting your dislike for the guy cloud your judgement.

I mean, he's been filling out Arenas since 2008- he must be doing something the fans like? I think he's certainly more well known in Britain than in the US, but the US networks like him more than the UK networks do. He's very marketable in the US and they like that.

Which is why GBP keep putting him on big shows and against good fighters.

Khan is worth around £25m. I'd say his personal fortune is higher than Garcia, Alexander ,Matthysse, Peterson combined. He's definitely the money man.

He is the money man,no doubt about that,doesn't mean hes the best at the weight though,far from it

On a side note,i bet Bradley wouldn't duck Khan now

I don't think Bradley would fight Khan now,Khan is in the same place he was when they were gonna fight yr and a half ago..Bradley has moved on and has legends on his mind...Khan needs to worry about Molina and Diaz..

$12 million behind Manny Pacquiao

Who is claiming Khan is a draw like Pac? Facts is everyone in boxing connected to making money puts Khan ahead of every plan, most boxers knows they would get more money fighting him, those boxers make a career out of fighting him and their biggest paydays, it's a fact that you cannot accept but you got to deal with mate.

Khan brings more to the table than anyone at the moment at 140, Garcia is the only one who has the potential to be making big money but even he is not there yet and the more reason they are still building him by getting him to fight veterans with a name.

So why would the money man make less money fighting Garcia and Molina??Cotto fought lower class fighters and never really made less..He was still paid in the mills..What is Khan even making a fight now??Can anyone answer this question??
