Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Talks Sky Fallout, McCloskey Defense, More

[rich6666]

If Mcloskey was to get hurt the british boxing board of control would pick up the medical bills, same system in the US also dummy. He offered Peterson $300k to fight, which even Peterson said was fair he just didn't agree to options on the rematch clause which is his decision and it is fair enough, but khan didn't short change him. The £200k McCloskey is getting for this fight is more than fair and 5x more than he has made in the past. Your last paragraph I agree with.

Believe it or not Mcloskey is the draw in this fight.Khan is neither popular or well liked in England or UK.Just look at the past ppv numbers, Talent alone does not pay the bills.

There are bucket loads of tickets still left to be sold.The seats will be filled by the bloody Irish.

amir khan's team know what they're doing.

if a blonde airhead from southern california with a fake degree can teach middle-aged mothers boxercise @ Bally's gym, he'll surely be able to get amir khan in tip top shape.

Mccloskey is the draw? some people need to stop lying to themselves

As someone that felt ripped off by some of SKY's recent PPV's I am glad they saw sence and changed it to SKY Sports 3. Khan is not a PPV fighter yet in the same way Hatton was. He needs big undercards to help him sell PPV's.

the guy is such an idiot. how about not pricing your opponents out? how about paying legit opponents fairly and not trying to squeeze every last penny out of people.

i mean you are asking people to step in the ring and risk their lives-- potentially incurring hundreds of thousands of dollars of medical costs. so how about paying them more than $50 you loser.

while you're at it how about you stop breaking into people's hotel rooms and stealing contracts. now what you got? some part-time boxercise trainer from 24 hour fitness??? the guy probably trains middle-aged married women most of the time.

eloquently put.

Imagine if Primetime PPV surpasses 1 Million, that would be hilarious.
