    It'd probably do him alot of good to get back onto regular tv, or at least regular sky sports, for a while, barring any special fights which I don't think even the likes of a fight with Tim Bradley would be because Bradley's not world famous and has no personality to sell the fight. The big backlash against Khan started with the Prescott fight, and while you can chalk alot of that upto being KO'd in embarassing fashion I think he lost alot of fans by going after their pockets so quickly while still taking shitty fights and being still just a prospect. He'd win alot of people back if they could actually see him in fights like the one against Maidana where showed alot of heart against a quality opponent.

    Hmm, I'll be watching that, another blow for Khan, there won't be many casuals watching him as there's that crap show on ITV and the football.

    Ive just read that boxing news interview in which khan comes across as a right fcking plonker. Claims he's a PPV fight, whatever fight he's in. The guys got a fcuking cheek and the way he says he "gave" a fight to itv, doing it for his fans. The clown would not have been shown had itv not stepped in. He thinks PPV is more about the fighter well not in the current scheme of things it's not amir. With they way things are people aren't willing to pay for mismatches, also you can thank audley for that as well,aud did us a favour, in a roundabout way.

    Amir khan is a great boxer but he is not a very intelligent person. He can't justify the fight as SBO at all, he has plenty of money, financially he's not in any worry at all. I'm very glad sky have dropped this from SBO.
