Comments Thread For: Khan-Alexander Still in Play For 12/7, Barclays On Hold

[DwightMare]

Whatever man, no need to start an argument about something totally different. I am not hating on Devon.

All i said is that the fight wont work well in the Barclays. Cool your jets.

Im not arguing. I don't think the fight will sell out either. But 10 to 12000 is a successful event. Something about the Barclays center has got a buzz for the fights right now.

You obviously weren't around for the whole Bradley fiasco. A few years ago Khan fans made Matthysse fans look like Trout fans.

Bradley bit was warranted.

Bradley came to the UK in April and wanted the fight that was proposed for July.

After that, Bradley changed his tune.

Khan tried his best by offering 50/50 on everything. Even said something like 'Grow some balls' while Bradley walked away...

Bradley mentioned 'what if I lose' on radio.

There was no doubt that Khan chased Bradley.

How is Bradley "the whole world"? Khan isn't saying anything that isn't the truth about Bradley. He offered him the fight at least 2 or 3 times.

Mathysse fans blew their load before anything happen. Unlike Bradley, Garcia accepted the fight.

Oh yeah!!! Bring this over here. **** that Hopkins fight, glad that **** got sent to AC. I was hoping the Broner Maidana fight would be here but ill settle for this. Khan is gonna spank devon.

Agreed Khan's offer to Bradley was more than fair. But Bradley turned it down because of his own Promotional issues and the Khan fans went over the top with it. They knew he was trying to sign with Top Rank.

I agree Bradley was having a dsipute with his promoter and not fighting, he did not fight anyone at all during that period. Khan fans like to blow everything out of proportion, who the heck is scared of Khan - if anyone is scared of opponents I think Khan is scared of Prescott, Prescott is even prepared to come the UK but Khan avoids him like the plague (I woder why) maybe he suffers from flashbacks.

Khan still offered the fight when Bradley fought Cassamayor BTW.

Khan didn't know about the contractual issues at the time of April when Bradley came over and confirmed the fight. He also to my knowledge chased the fight before the Cassamayor fight was agreed upon to my knowledge too.

There was no GBP and TR beef like it is now, back then.

Pretty sure Al Haymon looks after Devon too. Is Bummingham his manager? Thought he was just the trainer. When you talk more **** than Angel Garcia, there's something wrong with you.

I thought he was Haymons too but I swear I read in one of the articles here that Cunningham was his manager. I know he's more than his trainer.

Alexander has never been with haymon. He was with Don King, but never haymon

Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer is still working hard to finalize a welterweight title fight between IBF champion Devon Alexander and British star Amir Khan.

Schaefer recently traveled to Dubai to discuss the possibility of staging the fight over there.

Alexander is not jumping through hoops with the prospect of facing Khan in Dubai. However, money talks. If the right monetary offer is placed on the table, Alexander's management have indicated to Schaefer that Dubai or another other part of the world would be no problem.

The target date is December 7th. If Dubai falls through, there is heavy interest in the UK to stage Alexander-Khan. Additionally, Schaefer has placed Brooklyn's Barclays Center on hold.

I don't blame Devon for wanting more money to fight in Dubai because if he fights Khan there he only wins if he gets the KO.
