    To be fair, part of that is Alexander. I remember the struggle to get rid of Bradley - Alexander tickets a few years back. I think iirc they sold a ridiculously low amount before they started giving them away. Truth be told though, Khan is a much bigger star in his own mind than he is in real life. That said, he is still clearly the draw when it comes down to a head to head with Brook.

    this might sound daft but I don't think Khan himself has a rightful claim to face Floyd - but his style does

    Floyd already had a poll asking his fans if they wanted to see him fight Khan. Fans said yes, Floyd fought Maidana

    I also think Floyd's earned the right to duck him too - if that make sense

    Eddie Hearn is boxing Floyd off here and into a corner if you look at it in a business sense.
    Floyds only got a few fights left and Hearn has booked Wembley.....Khan is out of contract with Golden boy now as the Alexander fight was his last in that contract so he's a free agent. Next time Khan fights is gonna be in the uk I reckon and with or without Brook I'd bet a lot of money that Hearn is involved .

    Might be a genius bit of promoting going on here ;

    garcia perhaps, prescott and peterson not in a month of sundays

    so between us weve come up with one

    add manny to the list

    theres 2

    so in the whole of boxing theres 1 fighter who deserves a fight with floyd more than khan and another that you could argue either way

    so that probably concludes that khan fighting floyd is a legitimate and deserved fight

    (plus what did maidana, guerro, alverez, ortiz do to "deserve" a fight with floyd more than khan has?)

    You know what I stand corrected on this one - you're right.

    I just looked around and he is the logical opponent.

    A lot of it stems from my dislike of Khan and the fact he might just get Floyd at the right time and get the UD.

    Would be unbearable.

    Petersen and Prescott was tongue in cheek by the way

    Has Khan said who's going to promote him?
