    I reckon Lazarus is quite close to the Khan team because no-one surely can defend a fighter as much as he Lazarus without having some sort of interest in them.

    I think Laz would've cracked wood reading that.

    He doesn't know them, he's just ever so slightly obsessed, i think its to do with Khan's wit and nothing to do with colour(no racist)

    these guys are balking at the offers because team Khan are offering them a tiny percentage so they're quite right to do so. It doesn't matter what they made in previous fight becaue what they made was a fairish slice not just a sum (I assume).

    It sounds like Paul will be getting paid roughly 2/10s of what Khan is. So if Khan got 2/10s of Mayweather's earnings, I think he'd be over the moon!

    Someone in another thread mentioned Paul getting 75k for his last bout. Multiply that by three, and you have a rough figure of 200k. Khan earned 950k for his Maidana fight, and I can imagine him earning roughly the same again.

    BUT.....this is only if Paul's last fight did indeed earn him 75k.

    I doubt it was 75K for the voluntary defence with Barry Morrison...could be wrong though, I heard somewhere it was only 30K ish.

    Dudey isnt greedy at all and Im positive he'd accept 200K if offered...the management clause sounds ridiculous

    **** knows. I don't give a **** anymore to be honest. As long as it's someone who'll give him a good fight, which I think McCloskey would, then I'll be happy.

    So Peterson or McCloskey. Both will allow Khan to familiarize himself with another style. I'd like to go to this fight, especially if it's McCloskey. There'll be thousands of Irish fans and the atmosphere will be amazing.

    Khan's people are just looking out for McCloskey, they know he would just spend it on booze and lucky charms.

    Khan should, if he didn't, he would be a damn fool.
