Comments Thread For: Amir Khan About To Land Floyd Mayweather Clash

That might be true, but i think you are discounting how popular Mayweather is in the UK. Some of our UK posters could probably attest to this. Also he had 5k show up for a training session. The fight will generate buzz and non Khan fans will buy it.

Mayweather would sell out a 60k to 80k stadium easy in the uk

I'm not sure how accurate this is. I an not imagine Floyd Mayweather selling 60-80 thousand tickets for a stadium fight, I don't believe Carl Froch or David Haye would even be able to do that, and they are the two biggest stars in British boxing.

The most important aspect is that Mayweather will not fight in the UK, why give up home advantage to a challenger? This has Vegas written all over it.

do u think anyone is going to show up for these press tours in America?

There will be plenty of press, there always is for both a Mayweather and Khan fight, both of them together will maximise the selling potential.

^^^^ LOL SO, SO TRUE!!



Remember Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican holiday... Also remember MEXICANS are the #1 Fans of Boxing period... If Mayweather fought on his birthday or 4th of July holiday... the PPV sales would be *****.. and now with khan fighting mayweather... this ppv is going to bomb big time.. a WWE ppv event will surpass this B.S.

kind of off topic but with the way that they are treating daniel bryan and the departure of cm punk, the lame return of bautista, even wrestlemania has no chance of beating kahn/mayweather

wwe averages ppvs in the low 100k with mania in the mid 500k. no way that happens.

THIS.

This PPV is going to be a disaster. everyone i know who normally has a floyd fight house party. noway anyone will come to watch this crap

Im just thinking at the Canelo Mayweather tour there were hundreds of Mexicans and quite a lot of Mayweather fans, I don't see the Mexicans coming out for Khan, Maidana perhaps cause he has that Mexican warrior style that appeals to that market even though hes an Argentine. Most of the Mayweather fans I have spoken to are disgusted at the Khan match the only ones that are up for this are the UK fans and Khans Asian following

Well, Khan's winning the poll that matters. Good thing for Khan Sportscenter has nothing to do with it

So khan fans from over the world can't vote on that poll and he still got 38% of the votes. Wow AK really is the best choice then.
