    So the Khan fight is off?

    I dont know what Amir Khan expected? I also have no idea why he has sat on his arse for the best part of a year. All his eggs in one basket.
    *Except Michael, who died.

      He must have been given the nod otherwise he would have fought Alexander back end of last year.

        Yeah he must have been told he had the Mayweather fight to give up on the Alexander one

        He didnt really deserve a shot at Mayweather but its ****ty from Floyd camp too. He knows how to pick his fights

          I don't really think that Khan has grounds for a complaint, because technically he did the same thing to Alexander. I know that there was potential astronomical money at stake, however it's a double standard.

              ****ing joke of a fight

              Showtime execs must be checking and double checking that contract he signed with them.

                Neither option was that inspiring really, I suppose he beat Broner last so he beat the "next big thing" but he was massively overhyped.

                It'll be interesting to see who Khan fights now

                  I was hoping it would have been Khan even though he hasn't done anything to deserve it. I felt his style would have given Mayweather a few things to think about. I must say it looks bad for Broner though. His big brother is going to show little brother how to get the job done against Maidana

                        Brook & Khan having a few words. I'd quite like to see this happen; fancy Brook would win it as well tbh

                          Brooks got a cheek.

                          He's still down to fight a TBA in two weeks time.

                            Amir isnt world class though.

                              True but he's fought at a far higher level than Brook ever has.

                              If i was Khan i'd be inclined to take the apparent £5m on offer from Hearn Jr to fight Brook.
