    Over Mayweather v Maidana. It should be more competitive but we do know for almost certain that it will be more entertaining. Khan is must see TV.

      I'd like to see it because Khan is a new style for Mayweather.

          1. Khan beat Maidana.
          (Mayweather-Khan > Mayweather-Maidana.)

          2. Khan beat Barrera, who beat Morales, who beat prime Pacquiao.
          (Mayweather-Khan > Mayweather-Pacquiao.)

              Khan has a few rabid idiots running around here but I highly doubt there is much demand for such a farce of a fight. Marcos Maidana earned the shot and judging off of their RECENT performances, Maidana has a better shot at troubling Floyd than Khan does.

                There's like 10 people who want to see it here. And at ESB there's probably more since that website has so many Brits. Basically only Brits want to see it.

                This is definitely not a fight for American or Hispanic fans, this seems to only be tapping into the British boxing fanbase. Khan is about as known as Maidana in the U.S., in fact I will say since Maidana's win over Broner he's more known than Khan in the U.S.

                If Mayweather wants to make this a big fight for the Brits, so be it, fight at Wembley or something. Promote the fight in England, count on the UK PPV being strong, raise the price of the UK PPV, have some English fighters on the undercard. Because honestly, Floyd will not get much support from the the U.S. for this fight, not even from his diehard fans like me. So he should try to cater to UK fans for this fight.

                  As much as I'm a boxing fan, I don't think I would, unless there's a very good undercard. I just though that knowing the result of a fight before it starts kills all his thrills.

                    Why would a fight between an american and a brit be for the hispanic fans? lol.

                    Similarly, a fight between Mayweather and Maidana is not going to be for the British fans. World wide, the Maidana fight will do worse numbers than the Khan fight, because Maidana is much less well known. He hasn't had the same hype behind him as Khan has had. And when he's stepped up, he's failed 3/4 times.

                    Let's not act as if Khan-Mayweather would do any much more or any much less than Mayweather-Maidana in the US.
