    If they have it in the afternoon, a lot less people will buy it. That much is obvious.

    Selling out Wembley will not make a dent on the loss they would make in PPV revenue.

    Khan might be faster than Mayweather but its not by much if he indeed hes faster which i have my doubts about that, every other aspect of the game Mayweather owns Khan. IMO Both Devon and Floyd would/will knock Khan out the only difference is the payday he gets, that why hes ducking Devon to fight Floyd hes looking to cash out cause theres absolutely no chance Khan beats Mayweather none. Floyd finishes him whenever he feels like it, easy work and easy money for Floyd. On a side note if this indeed happens it would be nice to see Floyd taking on Khan in the UK, they could fill a stadium there and the atmosphere would be amazing and i think Floyd would get as much if not more support there than in the US.

    i'm not convinced. as a kid i used to stay up stupidly late to watch hagler. if you wanna see a fight, saturday afternoon ia anything but inconvenient.

    besides, you need to inform mayweather, he's the 1 talking about fighting in england.

    Khan might win this. Sure he has a glass chin, yes he's easier to time than Microwave popcorn, and yeah he's feather fisted british fraud. But Khan has one thing going for him, speed. And lots of it. Before you can even blink, Khan has his back on the canvas. Guy's ****ing quick.

    Both not proved their worth as of yet. One with power, one with speed.

    Matthysse won't be a big fight to the masses. He's just not a character you want to punch 10 bells out of rather than Khan.

    Thats very true, point of the thread was to see who would be prefered by power or speed. I hope khan gets embarrassed.

    To be fair they don't deserve it as much as Khan doesn't deserve it. Trout coming off a convincing defeat by someone who Floyd schooled and sent home with a note to his mum. Ortiz hasn't done nothing of late and Manny just been stopped by someone couldn't lay a glove on Floyd.

    I like Lucas but he has nothing that Floyd hasn't seen and dealt with efficiently. Floyd struggled with Judah in the early rounds with his speeds before Zab tired and Floyd rightly won. If Khan dedicates himself the way that is being reported he definitely will be competitive

    Think they will be happy. They will fight an interim 147 and get used to the weight. Do things properly.

    If this wuss was serious about being the GOAT and better than SRR, he'd be fighting GGG at 154 or 160. instead of a joke like Khan

    Zzzzzzzzzzz why would he enhance his status by someone whose biggest win is Matthew Macklin.
