    If that's true (and coming from Saj it might not be) then it does seem like the bridges have been burnt for good. If Sky wanted Khan back at any pint in the future they would have put him on regular Sky, or at least offered it to them.

    I didnt think it could be a payperview because your not allowed two paying fights a month. Im surprised sky didnt want it on one of there normal channels unless the price was too high.

    I hope Sky stick to their guns - there are plenty of other promoters and fighters that deserve a chance. Goldenboy talked too much **** after the Khan-McCloskey fight and I am glad Khan is off Sky.

    But when you are in the position he is in, You only have to do it a few times and your word is tarnished. I don't trust a word out of his mouth.

    Khan is a multi-millionaire, Sky are Billionaires, Khan is hardly going to starve without their business and Sky are hardly going to miss a few PPV buys.

    The problem is, Sky don't need Khan. Sky make most of their money through football.

    So Golden Boy threatening to "sever ties" with Sky won't make them change their mind, they'll probably tell GBP to **** off and stick to showing FW card's

    Other promoters and fighters deserve a chance? What are you talking about?

    After the Khan-McCloskey fight? Why? Because he beat that negative fighter of yours?

    What a pathetic argument to keep Khan off Sky.

    I personally don't think he would say it and even add their Twitter names into his rant if he was lying about it.

    thats until he gets Ko'd on HBO and has nowhere to go and im sure his 'team' are being well rewarded for their 'efforts' so money will always be important to them.

    They are most probably going to sky and saying put this on normal sky for £X because this is wat we made off the primetime PPV and sky told them to beat it

    and he thinks that naming them publicly on twitter is going to help matter?!?!?


    has this guy got a brain cell?


    More importantly does Khan have a PR man? he needs one - one outside of his circle of mates and family too
