    Cant see Khan crawling back anytime soon to be honest. Soon he'll be the only legit British world champ (I think Froch gets beat, Burns is fighting at Euro level and Cleverly hasnt fought a champion yet) so his stock will be highest.

    Plus they claim they are making more money on Primetime so what makes you think they give a **** about sky. (not sure if those claims are correct but thats what i keep hearing)

    I wonder who called who first. ;)

    Sky: 'Amir could you please please please come on to our new season Ringside show and bless us Please King Khan'

    Khan: 'Ok'


    :lol:

    Could have easily been the other way round. We don't know the details. What matters, though, is that Khan is back with Sky where he belongs. He'll likely be on normal Sky like every other fighter, which will do wonders for his exposure.

    Khan is appearing on Ringside. He hasn't re signed with Sky to show his fights has he?

    Bro I am just pissing around, but I don't think Khan got in touch with Sky and asked to be on ringside, I am pretty sure Sky contacted Khan first and Khan agreed to come.

    Like it or not if Sky are still going to show boxing and show a weekly boxing chat show it's in their interest to have Khan on their side and in their future plans, Khan should have some big fights lined up next year which could even bring their PPV back.

    I think this move by the two parties shows that we soon could have Khan on Sky on non PPV, let's hope so.

    Has it been confirmed that Khan will be fighting on Sky?

    Or are sky keeping the interest in him to build up the Kell Brook fight?

    If he is fighting Kell Brook then I cant see Matchroom wanting what happend with the McCloskey fight happening again. So if that fight gets the go ahead I can see Matchroom pushing hard for the fight to be on Sky rather than Primetime.

    Not sure if Matchroom would have any say in matters. If Brook wants to fight Khan it will have to be on Khan's terms.

    Fingers crossed pal. Regular Sky is the best option for him, Sky and us. Then maybe PPV if he can earn a Mayweather fight.

    Two great fighters is worthy of PPV, but not McCloskey, Judah or even Bradley. Especially in this economic climate.
