Wembley Stadium booked for Khan v Brook on June 13th 2015

[smashup]

Hearns offering Khan £4.5 Million and willing to let him co promote.

Safe to say it's 100% Mayweather, Pac or Brook next for Amir

Amir Khan is promised £4.5m to take Wembley 'superfight' against Kell Brook - Telegraph

Any solid words from the Amir side?

If Mayweather/Pac don't fight Khan next then Amir has to take this fight, I doubt he'll wanna speak about a June fight with Brook until he knows.

Huge money in it for Khan and a world title belt up for grabs.

I think he boxes Brooks head off anyway and takes his belt pretty easily so he's in a prime position.

I'd love to see Mayweather out of his comfort zone and fight Khan in front of 80,000 at Wembley.

He said after Froch/ Groves 2 that he'd love to fight at Wembley but I reckon now its on a plate for him we'll just hear more BS excuses to swerve Khan

[imp]

Khan wants floyd/pac.

I think khan deserves a shot at both because of his style.

4.5 million for khan just cant be ignored but lets hope brook can get another fight in before after that post leg injury..

Why is brook such a threat to khan anyway...did he really beat porter.?..nope

[Master]

Brooks is a very real serious threat to Khan. Amir has improved since his first fight at welterweight and I am not so confident that Kell will win now. It is a lot closer.

Khan said Hearn needs to stop being disrespectful, he shouldn't book stadiums in advance, Amir Khan is the A-side, Amir Khan will call the shots, Brook is not on Amir Khan's level, Amir Khan is a star in America, Amir Khan has just sold out Las Vegas.

He sold 4000 tickets in a 16,000+ seat venue and didn't rate in the top 20 TV viewing figures for 2014 (Showtime/HBO).

I can understand Khan wanting Floyd and Manny but I hope they both fight each other and Khan then has to turn around to the B side.

Khans best financial bet is to box in the US against PBF or Pac, trouble is PBF and Pac know that! Not a good negotiating position for a three time loser.

Khan versus Brook is really a boxing fans fight in the UK, and I'm not sure it will out sell Froch Groves, but good luck to Hearn putting the 'bid' in.

Talk from Khan about being disrespectful is his normal full of himself bollox, who the fuck does he think he is?

Was wondering what the truth was in Floyds comments last week about the MGM not being sold out and seems it didn't - infact nowhere near and people it seems chose the Bradley fight instead.

“Viewership for Sat’s @SHOsports #boxing card: Khan-Devon averaged 762k (887k peak), Thurman-Bundu 650k, Mares-Ramirez 566k,Charlo-Bottai 451k,” said Rafael on his twitter.

Bradley vs. Chaves brought in healthier numbers with 966,000 viewers with a peak of 1.087 million. Those aren’t bad numbers considering that Bradley was fighting a little known guy in Chaves.

“Viewership for Sat’s #boxing cards: @hboboxing Bradley-Chaves averaged 966k viewers (1.087M peak), Lee-Korobov 849k, Benavidez-Herrera 807k.”


Just makes Khan v Brook all the more likely now unless Pac throws Amir a bone

Is that true - Khan fight only sold 4000 tickets at MGM

Is that true - Khan fight only sold 4000 tickets at MGM

It's Mayweathers claim but i did try looking around on Google the other day and found no concrete evidence, Khan said it sold out straight after the fight during his interview

[Master]

Is that true - Khan fight only sold 4000 tickets at MGM

He is exaggerating or lying as we call it.

[Fenster]

The official attendance was 7,768 - so regardless of what Khan says it was under half full. And that includes all the freebies, which is apparently shitloads in Vegas when they haven't sold out.

I wonder what kind of deposit you have to put on booking wembley

Don't let the truth get in the way of building good propaganda. Floyd is ducking Khan even though Khan doesn't get ratings, doesn't sell tickets, doesn't have a belt and isn't a mandatory. How does Floyd manage to duck these men that have such a rightful claim?
