    :huh

    Didn't Maidana accept that 'step aside' money?

    Edit: Just found this quote from Maidana's then manager, dating back to February 2010:

    "We signed a three fight deal with Golden Boy Promotions for Marcos to fight in the United States. The W.B.A, Golden Boy, Universum, and myself talked and it has been decided that Kahn will fight Maidana later down the road."

    I wonder what's holding up the negotiations. Maidana's financial demands?

    Khan's fear of Deja Vu.

    Maidana claims he was screwed by his ex-managers. He wants a nice payday. I can envision overpricing himself, trying to get top dollar for his services.

    Maidana's asking price will be knocked down.

    But if it isn't, then WBA should enforce their 55/45 split. Although Khan is the bigger attraction, he really isn't in the position yet to be determining who gets paid what. He's in the US now, and he needs to earn that financial power. He can start by beating the best of 140.

    Rumors are that Haye is going to avoid his mandatory Chagaev and fight Holyfield. WBA will do nothing about it either.

    Maidana would knock out Haye easily.

    Voidali and Voidimir will never face the mighty SNV because they've always feared WBA champions. Because WBA champions have always been the best.
