    With this move to showtime we get no Sky build up and the pubs won't be showing it; you won't get that 'big fight' feeling when watching as you do with Khan/Haye fight on Sky. My patience with Team Khan is getting shorter and shorter..... I don't blame A Khan too much, I feel in the end it was Team Khan's decision to move it (they were the one's doing the negotiations with Khan still in prep for his fight as I heard).

    Still hope Khan wins and we get the unification match vs Bradley....I'll be shocked if that's not on SBO!

    I doubt Sky and Khan relationship has diminished too much (not like the first time this kind of thing has happened)..... Khan benefits from Sky and vice Versa, SKY + KHAN = MONEY for both parties!

    So **** Khan's management but c'mon Khan early TKO!

    Sky Sports News will still do small interviews and so on, as they will most sports regardless of whether they are on SKY.

    What we won't get is them doing anything beyond that, which is bad because these next few days are were the SKY machine really does its best stuff



    It is a bad situation. Make no mistake. SKY put in a lot of time and money, and in return Khan Promotions failed to deliver and then in an attempt to salvage something from this situation, instead of accepting they had failed and taking the SS3 offer, they attempted to begin legal proceedings before finally going to primetime.

    Exactly. Never a bad situation? This whole spectacle has turned to ****, the audience has been sliced down into a fraction and the solution, SS3, wasn't lucrative enough for Khan. Greed and stupidity, a dangerous mix.

    me and my mates have 4 tickets to this, but with the shambles it's become with such a **** undercard, and not on sky etc. we're not even bothering to go! I'm not driving 4 hours for a blowout inside 4 rounds when there's not even a decent card! I'd rather lose the £60 per ticket!

    Wonder how the Primetime sales for this fight are going thus far.

    How come you're not heading over for this, Laz?
