    I don't understand how he is a 'right tool'. He may say some dumb stuff but he's dead on, right now.

    Eddie Hearn playing up that this will get 5K PPV's is a joke. Anyone with a Brain knows that.

    He hasn't said one word about Primetime, which is bad because there won't be any press on it, so yes, he is a plonker.

    50K x £15 PPV = 750K?

    Sky offered Team Khan to be on SS3, anything inbetween 100K-200K Max

    So of course, if they got 50K PPV's, would that not have been a smart move?

    Use your head, Rele.

    Saj needs taking out the spotlight, he's Khan's friend but should not be saying things as a representative of Team Khan on subjects which he has shown over the last few days to have next to no knowledge of.

    The reason for Eddie Hearns comments regarding 5000 are nothing to do with Khan, how much a draw he is and so on. They are because this has been put together with no marketing budget with 5 DAYS TO GO

    Er no.

    Because out of that 750,000 they have to pay McCloskey and Primetime.

    No. Because it doesn't work like that in reality. £15 is how much it costs the customer. After costs and VAT it's significantly less.

    50,000 buys will see Khan take around £150-£200k. Which is stupid considering a) 50,000 will be very difficult to achieve and b) he was GUARANTEED an almost similar sum from SKY. Hence almost universal derision in the boxing industry regarding this.

    Ok, so with costs and VAT, what? £10 then? So 500K. Take away other costs, surely it can't be less than Sky's 100K-200K offer.

    50K is difficult to achieve? You wouldn't by chance have Amir's previous PPV records, would you?

    What was this similiar sum from Sky?
