Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Khan-Brook Can Draw 100,000 Fans in UK

No club here.

Just try to relax a bit, you are seeing weird KHAN conspiracies everywhere.

Too much negativity could lead King Khan to sleepy time.

Go in peace.

Tell us more about how Khan only got fame because he's Pakistani, his only fans are Pakistanis, how he keeps his "fully clothed" wife in a cupboard and how he killed someone

You've exposed your insecurities badly mate. Only need a mild bit of winding up to get all that out of you. Imagine what you're like in private.

Others: Not really. We’re just talking about Khan right now.

Peterson is not scheduled to fight anyone at the moment. So that fight could have been made right now instead of Devon. Don’t bother mentioning the 7lbs weight difference. Fighters choose catch weight all the time when they want to make the fight happen. This isn’t about belts or divisions, it’s about pride and setting the record straight.

Following Khan’s vicious KO by Danny, Angel said he wouldn’t give Khan a rematch meaning that Khan wasn’t entitled. If the money was right, and Khan accepted that he’s the b-side of that fight (to the much more popular current champion) that fight could easily be made too.

They're trying to match Danny Garcia and Lamont Peterson at 140lbs right now.

Like I said, Khan doesn't control boxing like he controls your mind.

Stick it up north surely? One from Bolton one from Sheffield would be huge up ('ooop') there.

Old Trafford maybe if they do events like this?

At the most Old Trafford could hold around 83,000 for the event. Wembley could pack in an extra 15,000 which would equate to an extra £600,000 if you average the tickets out at £40 a pop. That would be an issue for the promoters.

I'm sure the home town, or in this case home county fan base, would much prefer the fight to be held in The North, though that may add to the crowds volatility which could make United apprehensive about staging the event.

Tyrone Nurse brought a sizeable contingent from across the Pennines when he fought on the Murray Vs Crolla card and the security had their hands full. From what I saw one of his fans had the fasted hands of the whole night.

I've only been to one fight in a football ground and there was far less trouble than there usually is at boxing events. But tens of thousands of pissed and coked up boxing fans from Yorkshire descending on Manchester to watch one of their boys fight a lad from Lancashire might be something that Greater Manchester Police take issue with.

Too late to play the whimsical jokestar card pal. You already lost your rag

100k is a bit over the top i think,
but i could see this selling between 40-60k,
i could see it happening in a football stadium,

doubt it would get more sales than froch v groves 2...

dont know if its just me but since froch and groves was at wembley stadium,
every tom, **** and harry seems to think he can sell out wembley stadium

The "uneducated" ones. Don't forget.

I think Tim Bradley is clearly the better man when it comes to taking responsibilities.

Your boy toy Khan likes to shack up with skanks while his wife is locked up in a cupboard at home.

The pic I your avatar says a lot - Khan is half naked, and his wife is fully dressed walking behind him.

Say what you want about Bradley - the guy has class and decency when it comes to a family and his personal values.

How do you go back from this.

If Amir Khan (29-3, 19KOs) is successful on Saturday night at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, when he faces former two-division champion Devon Alexander, he is going to be a frontrunner to face Floyd Mayweather Jr. (47-0, 26KOs).

If Khan is unable to get Mayweather in the ring, then Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya will attempt to get him a lucrative "Plan B" option. That secondary option is possible a huge domestic fight with IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook, who makes the first defense of his title in February. [Click Here To Read More]

If they fight three times, they will draw 100,000 fans, but not for one fight. Oscar is delusional. Neither Khan nor Brook are that popular in the U.K.
