    The rumors are flying around that Khan will leave warren after the salita fight to go to the states and fight there. He's set up Khan promotions and im sure hell be promoting himself. Reading as to the reasons why people dont take to khan much is largely due to frank warren, and khan being on PPV so early.

    Now if Khan leaves warren, would that be a move on khans part showing that he wants to fight the best, and therefore make u like khan and support him or would it not really make much of a difference?

    No difference whatsoever.
    If anything,he could get a bit arrogant being his own promoter and listening to him rabbling on about Khan promotions would make him more despised.

    At this stage if he leaves it will ruin his career.

    If he goes to fight in America he disappears from PPV meaning he's not advertised on Sky Sports News, not advertised at half time in any football match and disappears from the Sun Newspaper.

    He may be more popular among hardcore boxing fans but his fanbase will decrease dramatically.

    Perhaps in the UK but the states is a bigger market anyway. I think he could easily remain on ppv though while promoting himself and fighting in america.

    Dont think it will make a difference, although he may get the fights he wants, Warren doesnt really do that good a job at picking them anyway, Prescott anyone:tong

    If he broke with Warren and moved away from his family I'd have to think about why I find him so ****ing annoying and cross of a couple of reasons.

    Doubt it would make any difference to his fans. Do most of them even know who Frank Warren is?

    I was assuming he was going to try over in the US if he split with Warren.
