      Of course not, easy money and the opponent poses no threat. The only kind of fight Khan can win these days. The sad thing is he is somehow thinking that beating this completely unknown bum will earn him a big fight. Even sadder is it probably will thanks to the WBC willing to sanction anything these days.

        Amir keeps winning, even in defeat they cant stop the Khan! Kell Brook will be running his mouth any minute.

          So 7 million euros is what in US dollars? 9.5 million?

          That's a mouse fart short of 8 figures coming off a humiliating loss, people were saying his career is over.

          He is making 3 times what Ruiz did this past weekend, the name of the game is prizefighting, and it appears he isn't taking a risk.

          I am the first one to hate on Amir Khan, he is a joke here in the states, but fair play to him on this one.

              Saudi Arabia human rights is abysmal as Goyat's boxing record.

              Good for Khan I guess that can bank on his popularity

                Why would he?

                Easy money whether he wins or loses...he'd be a fool not to take advantage of that opportunity.

                Although, they could have offered him $500, and that's still too much money to waste on him after what he did in his fight with Crawford

                  Amir Khan is the baddest man on the planet. Gets paid to be KTFO and to KTFO of bums, he’s a spokesperson for an evil regime and a also comedy genius.

                    I guarantee that Saudi's human rights record didn't even cross Khan's mind for a nanosecond, and honestly it's such a meaningless, low profile fight in the grand scheme of things that I don't think it's worth it for anybody else to care about it either. The only remarkable thing about this whole thing is the money being thrown around, but then again not really because Arab royalty are no strangers to wasting ****** amounts of money.

                    I expect Khan to retire after this fight honestly.
