    How many tickets do you think they will sell for this fight considering its Khan's first fight in Vegas? I don't expect Maidana to sell **** (look at the Cayo fight) so that means Khan will have to sell the tickets. I don't think there are too many Pakis in Vegas. Are the Brits going to travel for this fight?

    But one thing for sure is that this is a very good fight with 2 entertaining fighters that are young and hungry. I haven't seen a dull Khan or Maidana fight so this should be a great fight. Maybe that will pull in the crowd?

    They will need to add a top undercard..Khan is not sold yet in the US ..like how when Naz when to NY to face Kelly.

    And GoldenBoy wanted to do it in Detroit to bring in the "Muslim" support, but real talk..Detroit's muslim community is mostly Arab, and Arabs do not Identify with any of the Indian sub-cont regardless if thy are Muslim.

    Marketting Khan in the US right now is risky unless he is facing top notch Opposition & a well known name.
     
  3. Possibilities for undercard include Ortiz or Golovkin. Not bad but depends on the opponent.

    Ya, I'm well aware of the time difference, thanks

    What I mean is, would they put it on SBO when it's on at 4am

    Can't wait for Scott Gilfoids ten articles re-worded on how Maidana will destroy Khan.

    And then once Khan knocks him out he will move back onto David Haye or Carl Froch or any other brit fighter he can think of to abuse!!!

    Ah gotcha, makes sense now on second reading.

    If sky can make enough money from it, they will show it at shite o'clock. Obviously it'll need a UK undercard as nobody will buy a PPV that starts at 2am, and apparently Warren has a big show planned for that night.
