Khan - Maidana in jeopardy already...

[skel1983]

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.

Low ball offer he has never earnt over $120k in any fight, he probably earnt about half of that in his last fight in Argentina. Khan is the draw here like I said Maidana is a nobody like it or lump it he is the one doing the ducking he has never topped a big bill in his life, Maidana needs to man up and realise who the cash cow is here and it aint him.

So mate giving someone there biggest pay day by three time the amount is not a fair offer? He won't earn anywhere near that fighting anyone else at 140.

Apparently he did the same in the negotiations with Bradley, like you say this is a business and with or without Maidana Khan makes money Maidana makes fuck all without Khan, he needs to man up and take this huge pay rise.

He is officially ducking Khan if this is this case.

[:::PSL:::]

They're gonna end up settlin' for 50/50.






...I hope

[skel1983]

They're gonna end up settlin' for 50/50.






...I hope

Haha as if!!

Remind me who is the HBO fighter who is the fighter that fought his last fight in some gym in Argentina with no American tv? Maidana needs to realise who the man is here.

$500 k is a great deal for this guy after this fight he will only see this amount of money again in his dreams.

[CFH]

I agree with Skel here. If Maidana is getting offered $561,000 to fight Khan he should jump at the opportunity. Even if he loses he will still be in demand because he is an exciting, all-action fighter and if he beats Khan (which he might), he'll be in line for some huge paydays.

This is why I applaud HBO they don't give a fuck about belts and either do I, maidana is worth shit mate, he is not a name and is being a bitch Khan could fight some bum from England and earn 7 figure sum and offer the opponent 5%, but no he is wanting to silence the critics and offering some unknown mandatory or interim champion who no one out of boxing circles know who he is three times the best pay day of his life?

The percentage split is a load of bollocks mate take Hatton v Collazo or Baldomir and Mayweather as examples do you think Collazo and Baldomir got the bigger percentage?? Did they fuck!! They got what there status is boxing entitled them to.

If I was Khan I would tell Maidana to fuck off let him go fight the likes of Corley in some gym in Argentina with no tv and make about 20k.

If I was Khan I would tell Maidana to fuck off let him go fight the likes of Corley in some gym in Argentina with no tv and make about 20k.

Khan's offer I think is only around 150k more than Maidana's highest payday. Be fair that's what fans like me are saying. It seems like he doesn't want the fight. Oscar, Floyd, Manny and the rest of the superstars at least gave their opponents 35%.

And I really don't buy the argument that a guy isn't mainstream and only known in boxing circles therefore he deserves to be lowball. Pacquiao an ATG, at this time 2 years ago was not known in the mainstream, and if he didn't fight De La Hoya, would have stayed at 135 most likely and not know to the public. And lets say that did happen and Khan challenges him at 135, so by your logic he should also fucked over Manny too right? Because Khan was more known to the general public than Manny 2 years ago around this time.

You're right Khan could fight some feather fisted bum and get pay 7 figures without having to fight Maidana, but the boxing fans are going to bring it up constantly that his last 4 or 5 fights has been seriously cherry picking fights for a superstar that never worked his way up the ladder like the other guys like Floyd, Oscar, Leonard, Tyson, etc.

BTW, Maidana has fought twice on HBO, against Ortiz and Cayo. More impressive wins than Khan.

Nowhere near like I said previously this will be trebling his biggest ever payday, your a good guy bulldog, but you are out of touch with your figures mate. go have a little look at what pay packets Mayweather and Dela Hoya give out to such inferior oppnesnts in terms of draw.

Pac would not of been known if it wasn't for the Dela Hoya fight ( sorry mate you need to be give a VD special there, Pac was fucking huge prior to the Dela Hoya fight you for real?? The reason Dela Hoya wanted him was beacase he was p4p number 1, he was still earning 7 figure pay days prior to Oscar.


Now I will give you a few figures like I say mate your a top guy and a solid poster but your way out with your info here.

Mayweather was paid $8 million for the Baldomir fight, Baldomir was paid $1.6 so where has your 35% gone

My maths make that 85/15 share for Mayweather and Baldomir was champ so please tell me where was the 35%??

Like it or not Khan is the draw Maidana is no one if he don't fight Khan for $500k he will be lucky to fight 3/4 fights to earn that money.

Okay I was wrong about the 35% figure when it comes to really no name fighters such as Baldomir, but to other fights such as Oscar-Pac, Oscar-Floyd, Pac-Cotto, it was still around 65/35. And really is Khan that big of a star to really be fucking over Maidana like that? He ain't Floyd, he ain't Manny, he ain't Oscar. Khan is only a little known here in the USA, he's only had 1 fight here and it was against the feather fisted Paulie.

And about Pac, he was known in boxing circles and he was huge within the community, but not known in the mainstream, especially the USA. You did talk about boxing circles and mainstream in your other post. And there is a major difference between the 2. Pac is now known mainstream because of the fight with Oscar the Golden Boy.

But you know what? Let Khan fight some random guy in the UK for 7 figures, boxing fans will criticize the guy and will still view him as a protected fighter, rightly or wrongly. And don't worry bro, I know you're a good guy and solid poster here, no hard feelings.

Mate you are totally missing the point, let me try and expain Khan can fight anyone he want and get paid 7 figures Maidana will never see 561k in a million years against anyone, Khan is the bigger draw khan is a much bigger draw how do you not understand that?

Like I say like it or not it's a FACT.

Pac wasn't mainstream before Dela Hoya your second VD special of the night, PAC WAS P4P NUMBER 1 IN THE WORLD ARE YOU SERIOUS??

Did you miss his HBO PPV fights with Marquez Morales Barrera and David Diaz??

Mate you seriously need to brush up on some of the facts here. Pac had been on HBO PPV maybe 3/4 times before the Dela Hoya fight earning 7 figure pay cheques and like I said was p4p number 1, what are you talking about?

Sorry just picking up on that about being " no name " he just beat Zab Judah undisputed 147 Champ and knocked out Gatti no name?? A lot bigger name than Maidana whose biggest night was on the undercard of a fight, theres my point Maidana is a nobody without Khan, without Khan in the picture he would make 40k back in the Argentine gym against some shite mandatory.

[CFH]

Possibly a stupid question here, but does the 2M offered by HBO go directly to the fighters camps or are there other parties who get a slice as well?

I guess what I am asking is would the payments break down to 1.5M to Khan and .5M to Maidana or are there other factors at play?

No mate that money is being offered to Golden Boy for them to host the fight it is up to them then to distribute the pay packets.
