    According to a couple of papers today his fight has been moved back a week to avoid clashing with Pac-DLH and will likely still be on Sky Box Office:yikes

    They will build it up as Khans comeback and they will have countless interviews with him where he talks about coming back stronger after the defeat and how he will be WC this time next year.

    It would be very funny if he got KO'd again.

    What a bunch of tossers they must have at Sky.

    The figures for his last fight were abysmal, and that was when Khan was the hyped-up superman prospect.

    Who in hell is gonna buy it now that he has been terribly exposed, never mind that the opponent will undoubtedly be some terrible blown-up SFW bum.

    I can't believe that Warren and Sky would try to sell this **** on PPV.

    How would they sell it? Some bull**** "REDEMPTION" slogan pinned on or something.

    Wankers:deal

    Nearly 50K idiots bought it last time round so I guess he is banking on the sympathy buys.

    Khan could come into the ring with Bob Marleys redemption song playing.

    There's no way they can put in on PPV unless there's a very impressive undercard, and even then.....

    warren is just after the money yet again.....if he really was that bothered about Khan as a fighter he would leave him to settle in the Wildcard Gym and stick him on the Oscar vs Manny undercard against some journeyman

    You could have said that about the last Khan fight, it was still PPV though.

    So do you reckon you'll buy it or not?

    I didn't buy it on principle but at least there was a world title fight of sorts on the undercard, and Khan's fight was not a 6 round comeback. I'm not saying it should ahve been PVV at all, but probably more justified than whatever is likely to be on the Dec 6th card.

    Warren's going to have to do an amazing job selling this fight if he wants any more than about 6k PPV buys.

    Don't worry, I'm sure Frank has already been in contact with that optimistic bunch of deluded wombles at A-Force headquarters.

    as perverse or bizarre as it may sound, perhaps his "shocking" 52 second loss has made him more marketable to the PPV audience?? More people than before (i.e. the general public) are now aware of his fragility and consequently people may now be "more" prepared to pay to see him get sparked? One thing for sure with Amir is he always entertains (even if it is for less than on minute) – this “dramatic loss” may now have made him even more of a gold mine for the PPV guys.. for at least one more fight..

    You seriously think Kahns next fight will be a 6 rounder? Or are you just making stuff up to suit your argument?
