    So now it looks like he either has to take the 55% or relinquish his title.
    Will he take the fight or will he run from Maidana?

    Edit:
    Looks like I was right.

    Vacate the title. ------------26 - 30.59%
    Take the fight with Maidana. 59 - 69.41%

    well honestly i think Khan is getting ****ed over if he gets 55% against Maidana but rules are rules he should've made the deal while he had the chance or fought Maidana when he was just a mandatory and not an interim champ.

    So if Khan even if backs down because of the shitty split, its a ***** move, bad for boxing.

    If Khan fights Maidana I think he knocks Maidana out

    Hes trapped

    If he vacates he loses support from basically everyone except from his Ardent fans.

    I would not be surprised if he were to vacate title, but this fight still might happen. Now, if the WBA will only have the balls to force Haye to fight him mandatory Chagaev next..................

    He takes the fight. Looking like a lose lose situation, but maybe he comes away unscathed...

    no it means Maidana will get 45% of the winning bid if it goes to purse bid. not he“ll get 45 percent of what the fight gains..
    both are with GBP
    It will turn out as a good deal for Khan

    He should take the fight. It's not as though there won't be big money fights in the future for him.

    You think he has enough skill to outbox him all 12 rounds without taking too many big hits, or you think his chin is better than advertised?
