Comments Thread For: Khan: Joshua Should Go to America, Make Wilder Fight Bigger

[JakeTheBoxer]

Khan should take care about his own career. His next fight is ****.

[1hourRun]

The last time Khan fought in England at the Sheffield arena they were actually giving tickets away, he had to go .A.J. earns £15-20 million (nearly $30m!)per fight fighting in the U.K. It's not about balls as you suggest it's about money.....ask any of them ...Khan included.

No one is trying to compare what a prime undefeated unified HW champion can make in contrast too a glass-jaw jr. Welter/Welter who was coming off a KO. At his peak Amir Khan could of brought : Malignaggi, Judah, Maidana, Peterson, Garcia all to the UK for more money, none of those names were draws in the states.

You tried to discredit Amir 'King' Khan's bravery, fact is he did not need to come to America but he wanted the best available fights and got them, just like James 'Chunky' Degale or even a Kell Brook, all these men faced opponents on foreign soil, none of which were cash-cows even draws that sold ticket so its not about the money all the time but legacy.

Amir Khan maybe a clown but his heart is unquestionable.

I never questioned Khan's heart only his ******ity.If for A.J. it makes money sense then he will have no qualms but at this moment in time what's the point as there's very little to fly out for competition wise.The fighters you mention had to chase the dollar as they were nowhere near the earners as A.J. is.

Legacy will come for A.J. wherever he fights and as I've said he's never going to get it fighting nobodies in America.

Ths is the first time in a while ive actually heard amir khan say something reasonable and i agree with

If you want to be a global star fight in america

Look at manny pacquiao, if pac say went to uk and only fought there he would be big there but not globally like he was in usa.

[GlassJoey]

From what I’ve seen, he could plough through most of the US top 10 in one sitting and save Wilder for a super fight later in the year. I might be missing something but outside of Wilder, the top US Heavyweights I’ve seen have been laughable

No need to come to America he is selling out 100k seat stadiums....fighters need to start building there home towns up and bring money back to there communities...
