    So now we are missing Haye vs Wlad for whatever this might be! Fuck off Sky and fuck off Khan. I just don't like it!

    What's wrong with these young fighters? He came from sleeping in a car to main event fights. And forgetting where he came from already. Someone in his camp needs to let him know, he needs to let the kid know he have to win one of these big fights before he demands money. For all he know, he mihgt be sitting on the sideline. Who else is he going to fight right now and he get paid? Its ashame, I like the Peterson boys, but this is a career ending turn down fight chance.

    I don't blame him really, after Barrera nobody should be going to the UK to fight Khan.

    IMO financially the Prescott rematch makes the most sense and would probably do crazy numbers in Khan's backyard, even if it will most likely be a one sided affair, but people would go crazy for the fight cause it would be "retribution" for Khan

    It doesn't matter that Peterson went from sleeping in a car to where he is now, boxing after all is a business and guys do take considerable risks inside that ring, so of course they want to be compensated fairly especially if they're fighting in some guy's backyard.

    I remember reading from another boxing forum that Montiel got around 500k fighting Hasegawa in Japan. And this is a 118 pound fight.

    for me I want to see Prescott rematch

    McCloskey would be out of his depth - as would Prescott I agree but he maybe has a psychological edge and can bang. And I would pay to see it

    Big punchers are the only people who are going to beat Khan and that's all I got to say about that
    Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate

    But who is Peterson Bulldog? Khan like it or not is a cash cow in the uk, he could fight a blind donkey and still get big money, Peterson is not worth more than 200k he brings nothing to the fight financially, he is getting paid very well he would of never seen that sort of money before for one fight, what other shots will he get? If he gets another shot he won't make anywhere near that amount silly decision really.

    He had a gash on the head from a butt reaching down to the skull which took place in the early stages of the fight. Nobody decided to protect Barrera and of course he wouldn't quit. The fight was eventually stopped after it was safe enough to go to the cards and of course Khan got the decision over a half blind and seriously injured Barrera.

    It should make any foreign fighter think twice about going to the UK when asked to face a domestic British fighter.

    Out of curiosity, did you felt the same way when Kostya Tszyu fought Hatton with Parris reffing the fight?

    To be fair, I don't think Kostya was cut to the skull from a butt after two. For sure I understand the complaints about how Paris officiated the Kostya/Hatton fight, but it is a very different thing. That is more akin to Cortez officiating Hatton/Mayweather.

    Exactly the guy is coming off a defeat by the best in the division and a gift of a draw against another top ten fighter, who the hell is going to pay him 200k in any other fight?? I would actually state if he was champion or beltholder should I say he would be hard pushed to make 200k, he wont make that sort of money in his next 4 fights.
