    Where's my bias? You just said Khan's team ****ed up the undercard.

    Hatton Promotions had the card set. There was a fixed amount of £££ given to the undercard fighters which Hatton sorted out, and then the fighters pulled out for whatever reason Rees - Injury, Macklin - Got World Title shot instead.

    So please, explain to me where the problem lies within Team Khan on this one, unless you know something I don't.

    9-11pm next saturday is still down as 'TBA' on the schedules, so there is room for it.

    Khan won't say '**** off' to Sky, as they are the only broadcaster in the UK that would pay to show his fights.:patsch

    Well Premier might, but they wouldn't have anywhere near the kind of money he'd want.

    Is that TBA on SS1, Chris or SS3?

    Well, ITV could, if they have a slot that is.

    Oh, true. Them two shows being on was also a contributing factor to this fight not being on PPV as well.

    Haye is Sky's main ppv cow after the Harrison debacle? Get a grip, he is retiring in October and then what will Sky do? Put on mega-fights like Murray-Mitchell? And yes the blame for this debacle does rest with Hatton & his company, it was their responsibility to build the undercard but utterly failed, but hey Ricky is one of the lads so he gets a pass but that p*ki c*nt deserves everything he gets...

    I really wouldn't blame Khan if he did turn his back on the UK market, he'd be better off. And yes Team Khan are a bunch of clowns!

    This is what I agree with and what I'm trying to say. Good post, Punch.

    khan should have asked frank warren to provide the undercard, there's a reason why bob arum, don king and frank warren are so successful, because promoting is like breathing oxygen to them!

    every fighter tries to make a promotional company, we have pacman, cotto, winky, shane mosley, khan, james toney, zab judah..... **** the list is endless but they all suck because they dont know what the hell they're doing!
