    against Mayweather or Pac

    I actually think both fighters will retire after this fight

    Khan never deserved the payday, now he will have to take fights he should be taking and not ducking

    Still chance he could fight Brook

    He might still get it. If he gets the fight then he deserves it.

    Plus I hear he could get just as big a payday fighting Brook which is another fight that could still happen.

    I've always found it a bit weird that people care so much about Khan deserving a payday. People didn't bring it up when Floyd and Manny fought other not-particularly-deserving opponents.

    Khan doesn't deserve a payday but guys like maidana(never beat a legitimate top 10 147 fighter),alvarez(fought 1 top 10 opponent and got a close decision),ortiz,guerraro, ricky hatton (close decision against collazo), zab judah (coming off a loss against boldamir) all deserve paydays, khan did more in his last 2 fights then all those guys did before they fought floyd. Khan has a underrated resume. If maidana could fight floyd twice after beating adrien ****ing broner, then khan has every right to gun for that fight.

    Some of you are very sad. You say he is ducking this and that guy, but he is chasing better fighters? Not many want to fight the best, at least he does and if he wanted the biggest pay day then the Brook fight is right there.

    :good

    Brook needs Amir more than Amir needs Brook.

    Nobody at 147 "needs" Kell. He is a nobody.

    He is only chasing the better fighters because he knows he would be able to retire afterwards with the money earned regardless if he losses which he knows he would.

    Rubbish.

    Khan has wanted the best fighters since he was a pup.

    Yeah f-ing right. He's wanted the easiest route to the biggest pay day since he was a pup you mean.

    Why isnt he accepting Brook's challenge? IBF champ, 33-0, you don't get much better than that.

    Everybody wants that.

    I assume because he has been trying to get Pacquiao and Mayweather, who are better than that.

    But everyone knew they were in negotiations to get a fight on, except khan somehow didn't get the memo.

    Begging and taunting a figher is not a way to construct negotiations especially when you are a challenger who has not even convinced against quality opponents.
