    So, if you invite over only 3 friends and split the bill that comes to only 18.75 quid per person! Ringside seats was selling for for over 2,000 $ for Floyds last fight. How could this be such a tremendous opportunity for boxing fans?

    Nobody wants to see this fight besides Amir from team Khan and Mayweather(s).

    This fight is $$$... Khan doesn't deserve this fight with Mayweather at all. Danny Garcia should be fighting Mayweather.

    Yeah, great point. For only 75 $, you could watch one of the greatest boxers of all time in the convenience of your own home live. And not have to pay for those costly and time consuming travel expenses like plane tickets, hotel rooms, and then have to pay thousands for the ticket.

    Floyd has never fought an opponent that could match his speed. Style-wise Amir is Floyd's toughest opponent around.

    Nope.

    Still hope the Khan fight is still a silly rumor to let Floyd get away with another easy but slightly better victim.

    Almost everyone will say they won't but when the fight is close everyone will be paying and the PPV numbers will be big. Think it's proven already that Mayweather could fight a clown for all he cares and people will still tune in.

    I won't pay a god damn dollar to watch that fight. I'm not even sure that I'd go attend any Amir Khan fight even if I was offered ringside seats for free.

    I would however possibly pay something to watch Mayweather VS Paquio.

    Americans are dumb enough to pay $75 for Mayweather fights. And we all know Brits are paying any amount for any of their fighters in a big fight, they think its their patriotic duty.

    So yes, I am sure the combined PPV numbers US/UK will be good business for both fighters involved.

    Khan should beat 2 top 147 fighters first and pick up a world title, then the fight would have the required hype to get lots of people to pay for this ppv.

    Which 2 top fighters can he beat though? I say possibly Broner. Alexander and Bradley would **** Khan up though.

    I don't want to help line Khon's pockets but would like to see him get knocked out again, so the obvious solution is to watch it for free.

    Whatever the cost not buying into this ****. Just a money making exercise for both fighters. Fair enough its a business but Boxing wise makes absolutely no ****ing sense.

    I'm not gonna thank Jesus... Jesus Chavez is a quitter, he quit on his stool against Floyd! There were much better fights, like the one right after that. :bart
