    I totally accept the people that resent AJ because of the Sky/Matchroom/Hearn connection , I've already said that.
    My point about Khan (amongst others) was that they expect the big bucks, but don't justify it.
    Khan is probably (almost definitely)not
    top 10 in the division, yet he thinks he's worthy of a 70/30 split in his favour against a Champion.
    We all know he did that and is prepared to accept less money against other fighters because if he lost, he's worth Zip.
    Who the fuck is he to dictate these things? He's been a mandatory for the WBC (?) Strap for fucking donkey's years and hasn't been forced to fight. It's a joke.
    That is boxing. I think most British Saddos enjoy and can appreciate AJ for what he is but have either been watching or involved in boxing for long enough to know that it is still very early days and the excitement starts when he is in a ring with someone able to stretch him and show more depth than he has. He showed plenty of character against Whyte but also his limitations, as he did in the Olympics. I think most want the best for him, because he is like you say very exciting when he brings that kind of power to the table. Most hardcore boxing fans are not huge on the heavyweight scene because it is almost an anomaly that can't really be compared to the other divisions. I apologise for assuming you were British, your certainly post as though English is your first Language. Are you

    A) Italian
    B) Irish
    C)Australian
    D)Ross's Neighbour

    Khan might be a dick but he has entertained enough to be able to ask for whatever he likes. He might not get it but he is going to try for the maximum purse because that is his job to do so.
    I have to admit that when I first joined this forum I assumed that Primo was English as well, whilst some people you can tell are yanks straight away and others you can tell are English, Primo must be a bit of a fucking chameleon...its that or life has battered him down to the point of hopelessness which is why he shares the same sort of tone (via text on a screen) as the English
