    I'm more inclined to believe Maidana, because he wasn't the guy that wanted to fight a shot Erik Morales or JMM at 140.

    BTW, can someone explained to me how you can be a "superstar" in boxing without having to fight the number 1 guy in your division or any division? Hell even Floyd and Manny (love them or hate them) worked their way up the ranks and became lineal champs, as did Leonard and De La Hoya.

    Only in this new era of boxing.
    khan aint a superstar he was on free tv in last fight
    Lol.

    For the record what I have been told Maidana has been offered £350,000 to fight Khan that's $561,000, that is a fair offer for a fighter that has never headlined a big fight in his life, if he is refusing this he needs to be given the stick Khan has and some more.

    That's still a low ball offer. From what I just read it's usually 65/35 with the 65 for the champ and 35 for the challenger from the alphabet orgs like the WBA, WBC, IBF, etc.

    HBO is putting up 2 million for the fight. So Maidana is entitled to 700k. 561k is under 30%. That's low balling someone. This is still a business.

    It was usually 65/35 in their cases.Not even Floyd, Manny, or even Oscar took home more than 70% of everything like that. And Khan is no where near their level. Maidana wants a fair deal and he's entitled to it.
