Team McCloskey reveal (in detail) why fight with Khan is off

[Fenster]

Double payday sounds perfectly reasonable, however, McCloskey's best payday to date is probably about £30,000, so £60,000 for facing Khan isn't exactly life changing money, is it? He could make more than that with a few defences of the Euro title, in winnable fights.

I believe the main problem with that deal is the rematch options. If McCloskey wins, he fights Khan again for a set cash amount on their promotion. Basically he has to beat Khan TWICE for probably less than £200,000. While Khan would cash in even coming off a loss (all these figures could be way off ).

Somebody seriously needs to tap him on the shoulder, whisper in his ear and remind him "your Paul McCloskey. Your not winning"

In that case there is no need to take the fight, right? He might as well make that money defending his Euro title

Unless Calzaghe makes a return and is in need of an opponent what other chance does McCloskey have of actually being the main event on a PPV show?

What does PPV matter if you're not getting any money for it? And even worse, like you said, gets slaughtered in a round.

Come on now. You know damn well every fighter would love to main event a PPV at least once in there career. This is his best and I'm damn positive his only chance to do it. Yeah it's about a 95% given he gets massacred in a round. 5% chance is never worth the gamble. Under normal circumstances that is. These ain't normal circumstances. There's no denying McCloskey's crappiness. His skills shouldn't even be called skills when compare to that of his opponents. His opponent skill package is one of boxings best. But his opponent also owns one of Boxings worse if not the worse chin in the sport. He's been laid the fuck out before and will be laid the fuck out again soon. So that 5% chance is worth the gamble. He doesn't have the skills to be able to hit Con the normal way. So why try? My advice to McCloskey (if his dumb ass actually decides to take the fight) is put your head down, swing hay makers and pray to God one lands. Who knows? Maybe God will feel sorry for him. Maybe God feels like fucking with Con. Either way it beats the alternative. Which is McCloskey fighting a fellow scrub in some bingo hall for drive-through money and losing. A very possible outcome.

Maybe its not his only chance. I'm wondering if they are banking on Bradley giving up the WBC belt because I'd heard they were pushing for a WBC elimanator. Maybe he gets a fight with Olusegun which is winnable, sneaks a world title and then positions himself for a unification fight. Tis a long shot of that happening though.

I agree, everyone is saying that this McCloskey character should take the deal but if he does win he should be able to cash in on it and not be handcuffed by Khan regarding his promotion and money.....gtfoh
