Comments Thread For: Team Alexander To Khan: You Don't Run ****, No Dubai!

[Drunk Punch]

Exactly. Why fight in St Louis infront of 300 people when you can get MEGA-PAID and fight somewhere else in the world?

Why are there so many threads on here criticsing Alexander after all he is the champion why should Khan's camp dictate the terms, does Khan even deserve a World Title fight at welterweight when his done nothing to deserve a title shot. He led us to believe he would'nt move up until his had his rematches at j.w.w.

Put a leash on both these clowns. Thats why Haymons fighters keep their mouths shut during negotiations. You have egos in both camps blabbing to the media. At this rate this fights never going to get done.

Let's be real.... you get a title shot because of your name and the people who back you.
How was Alexander #1 rated WBC WW before he even moved up?
Khan shouldn't be near a title either. Nearly got blasted by an old Diaz and I think he won a MD.

It's all politics and money

Im starting to be over this fight already.

It was a UD and a pretty clear one as well.

But agreed on the other part, fact is that Khan is selling out arenas, Khan has been fighting on PPV, Khan has consistently had high profile fights on HBO and Showtime - all things that can't really be said for Alexander. They think he's callin shots, but he has no one to fight. The IBF rankings are laughable and Khan will undoubtedly give him his biggest payday. Whether in Dubai or not. Khan is the draw in this fight, not Alexander.

True, but I consider Alexander/Khan a pretty high profile fight... kind of risky to put that there without really testing it first.

I wonder how Cuello/Zhong did.
It should have brought in a good crowd because a lot of Filipinos work in or around the area.

Also, it's more of the perception. All people hear is Egypt and that'll scare them off.

Guess you haven't been keeping up. The fighters did not even get paid. At least Cuello didn't. On top of that, he got injured and cannot even afford the surgery he will need. He now has to ask for the charity of others. The WBC is apparently going to help him.

Yeah, Dubai makes all kinds of sense! smh.

That was KO promotions though.
Also they tried to pay installments and didn't even make like the first 2 or something.
Poor planning on their part.
One of the bigger promoters could do a better job.... but still makes no sense to fight there.

Currently the greatest ****** fighter is probably Hopkins tbh.

im not sure about this but i think ******s frown upon male **** ****.

I dont see how hopkins can be a ****** unless he creates his own ****** sect like the sunnis where male **** **** is allowed. he's probably mad that the name sh.iites is already taken.

[dwighttsharpe]

Let Khan fight somebody else over there.

Alexander does not want to be involved in their shenanigans. Apparently, no other Americans want to either, to this point

As someone said, must be a reason!
