    Demanded a 80/20 split and 10 million guarantee plus upside while Brook gets 2 million...Hearn offered a 60/40 split

    Khan just doesn't get it does he?
    It's the biggest fight out there (may/pac ain't happening)

    If I was Brook I would take it. Still way more than he's ever earned before and if he's confident of knocking Khan out he will be rewarded ten fold in the future.

    Khans sole focus is making as much money as possible, every negotiation is guna be a massive haggle, everybody other than Pacquiao or Floyd gets awful money offered to them.

    He only wants the biggest 2 money makers in the division. All about the money the mans pride seems to of disappeared a few years ago.

    Biggest problem being, hes not that good.

    Not gonna be earning that much in the future if all managers of potential opponents know he's prepared to take 20% and throw a belt in the mix for good measure. You have to know your worth and stick to your guns. Contract negotiations are just games of poker really. The fight will happen - eventually - and I'm guessing at 40/60 in Khan's favour...

    Hearn is good at promoting his own shows but when it comes to negotiating with non Matchroom fighters he is totally inept.

    Everybody involved in this are total *****s (Hearn, Brook and Khan)

    This. Kell would be an idiot to give Khan 80%. Khan has done nothing at 147. Khan isn't some mainstream superstar like Mayweather or PAC. Khan is delusional.

    He is a household name in UK, kell is only known in Sheffield. Khan would be the idiot giving Kell 40%. Kells highest payday is 200k and he wants 5m vs khan....

    Who else does Khan plan to fight?. He's not getting the payday against Mayweather or Pacquiao and he's literally a ticking bomb that could get caught by anyone random and out he goes.

    Brook is not in the same pay bracket as Khan. Brook is the smaller draw.
    Brook busy fighting Donut Dan's whilst Khan just beat the guy who beat Provodnikov.
