      Khan ain't selling PPV tickets.

      Since Danny whooped him, they can't GIVE tickets away.

        So who should he fight then? People are taking into the fact that Algeiri was moving up, hes gonna cause problems at Welterweight himself i bet (yes i said Welterweight)

        I think this win will be seen as a decent one when Algeiri beats a decent welterweight which im sure he can, dont over look Algeiri, hes a talented boxer.

        I think wins over Collazo, Alexander and Algeiri is good enough to warrant a Floyd fight.

          Algeri was really the wrong fight for Khan. It was poor matchmaking. Pac couldn't stop Algeri after knocking him down 6 times Although Khan didn't do terribly, it just people have built up expectation too much when supposivily earning a fight with Floyd.

          How did Guerrero get the fight? Beat and looked good against the almighty Berto. What did he do before hand or after, nothing.

          How did Ortiz get the fight? Beat and looked good against the almighty Berto. What did he do before hand or after, nothing.

          How did Maidana get the fight? Beat and looked good against the overhyped, Broner. What did he do before hand or after, nothing, now is a fatty.

          Khan didn't choose Algeri, it would have been Haymon, for a looking good fight, Guerrero would have probably been a better opponent for him. Though i guess they are concerned that much about his chin thats why Algeri was probably chosen, but it backfired a bit in accordance to people perceptions when achieving a fight with Floyd.

            I mean ****, why not? Robert Guerrero basically got the fight because he beat Andre MF'n Berto lol

              I don't necessarily agree that Khan does not 'deserve' the fight sing Floyd's logic for selecting opponents.

              What I do think is that Khan is just not as marketable as he believes he is.

              Khan moved to the US to raise his profile, but in reality his fan base is small - primarily UK based British Pakistani's.

              It is a myth that Khan is hugely popular in the UK, I'd guess he is about as popular in the UK as he is in the USA.

              He is a 'name' but will not bring in big PPV numbers.

              Floyd likes Hispanic fighters because he knows they will tune in and pay etc.

                Yeah I agree, his "name" will have very little effect. My guess would be is that a Floyd/Khan PPV does somewhere in the neighborhood of what Floyd/Maidana 2 did.

                    Khan should compete in those knock out fights against the clock...

                    The faster the KO comes, the more $$$ for the winner.

                    Khunt Khan would get huge numbers on PPV!

                    But win nothing lol.

                      All 3 had welterweight titles (Guerrero had the interim).

                      Khan took the wrong route.
