Not from boxing. He's making 5 times less than what he could

Still much much more than Kelly. You laughing at Khan's earnings from boxing sure doesn't make your loverboy Kelly's look good, irony much.

So Khan is deliberately making 5 times less than what he could just to spite Brook?

Ok I'm sure his wife is happy about that.

That's his reasoning I guess, Khan could easily live without that extra cash and is set for life from his investments etc... but for Brook it means so much more, $200k for the Porter fight and then suddenly getting millions for the domestic clash is a huge leap for the chav.

Brook was only entitled to 15% of the purse against Porter as the mandatory.

That would be pathetic reasoning. Usually when a boxer doesn't like someone, they fight them in the ring. Khan has the chance to end the Brook hype before it gets off the ground but instead he wants Brook to get bigger? Makes no sense but that's Khan for you.

I'll let you have your 15% reasoning for the pittance he was paid. Funny how state side the guy he beat, Porter is still earning more than Kelly and has the better win post their fight together in beating Broner.

I would be shocked if Kelly has earned more than Porter, Thurman or Broner, let alone Khan in his career thus far.

Froch has the chance to end the GGG hype or the DeGale 2.0 hype and make boat loads in the process, a guy like Floyd would still fight for $30-40m even though he just earned $200-300m from the Manny fight. Some people graft hard for every little bit while others are content with what they have and what they will continue to get from investments.

Brook will probably be compared to legends like Duran even if he were to fight 20 straight bums from now until his retirement the way his fans are hyping and living off his 1 live body win.

Then why don't you tell us how much he made for Hatton and Senchenko bouts? Or even Gavin?

Froch had the same chance, but "the fight gotta get bigger doe".

I don't know. No numbers released but he will be making more as a world champion obviously rather than a mandatory challenger.

Froch had the same chance of what? Why are Khantards so butthurt about Froch? It's so pathetic

Horrible thug thing .....unfortunately on the rise (way of our world hey) Khan won't care money is his god !

He has established an orphanage in Gambia and is running it, and involved in several other charitable projects...Now enlighten us with what you have done, except whine 24/7 on NSB

For a second I thought he might actually be considering MMA career.

Something like that would actually be perfect for Khan though who always loves to have an excuse for everything. This way when he got beat in MMA he could stand there with his broken arm in the post-fight interview talking about how he would've won under boxing rules and so still deserves a Floyd shot, and when he gets sparked again in boxing he can say how he would've won if only the other guy had the guts to fight him under MMA rules.
