Basically, I have no doubt they will find a way to sell this fight and it will work, because to their credit, they are the best at it. And fans quickly forget just how chinny Amir looked before he even got knocked out by Prescott, and then he was "revived" and was being set up for a Floyd clash and GB misplayed a piece of the puzzle and put him in with Garcia, which happens sometimes. But the plan is to convince the public this fight makes sense again. If anything, some of GB's more impressive fighters have been the guys they didn't try to hype as something special (Matthysse and Garcia come to mind).Comment

F**k this fight. Guerrero was a legit fight, Ortiz legit, Mosley a big fight, Cotto a big fight, Canelo a big fight, this is a garbage fight.
Khan should be fighting someone like Thurman, Guerrero, Alexander before fighting Floyd.
I'd rather see Mayweather-Alexander than this. Devon at least mopped the floor with Maidana, is a legit Top 10 WW, and would be a unification.Comment

You're a genius, aren't you bud?
This fight will be on US soil with a legitimate name like Khan (who is not coming off a loss and is far better known than Rios) supporting Mayweather, with a star who is not coming off two straight losses like Pac. Of course it will do better than Pac/Rios which was held in China, making it less likely to do well on PPV because of the lack of local media coverage/direct access to the fighters (local sports radio, local sports TV etc) and the fact that much of the media that did get to cover Pac/Rios were not English-speaking. Much easier for American media to cover a sporting event in Las Vegas than it is China, and also much easier for the American audience to get behind.
Still, you're a genius bro. Really. Genius.Comment

Khan deserves this fight as much as I do. Horrible bout, I won't pay a red cent for it and I have purchased every Floyd PPV he has fought in since Judah.Comment
