    My problem isnt with Khan making 1.2M - its with leaving only .2 for Malignaggi. Just seems unfair that Khan would make 1Million more or 6x as much as Malignaggi... I just think that it should be a little more even is all.

    Not only Khan is contracted to make $1.25m from HBO, he also takes all the PPV share here in the U.K, Paulie also gets none of that.

    Warren recently said Khan made around 10m pounds,= $15m with him, plus Khan's Reebok deals i think it was $4m 2yr deals x2.

    So Khan's made around $23m for a 23yr old so far not bad, fighting mostly C, B class fighters learning the game at his age.

    Now its time to make big money in the states in the next 7 or 8 years.

    That's his opinion, not everyone agrees with it but nonetheless it's called free speach.

    It isn't a matter of what HE is warrented-

    This is an issue about BOXING. No one can get a fair shake in this deal. No one! Not Paulie- not JMM- not prince nassem coming back- not the ghost of sugar ray robinson! GBP has locked in their payday and in so doing screwed any would-be opponents for Khan- weather or not he wins against Malignaggi.

    For HBO to show Khan/Malignaggi while boycotting Vlad/Chambers shows the prejudice of USTV.

    The extreme sour grapes about The Klitschkos being the champions makes me puke. USTV is once again boycotting a Klitschko fight and so very many other Euro fighters. HBO showed Arreola Vs. Minto, but not Vlad Vs. Chambers?! Prejudice, provincialism is the definition.

    khan wins this one to strong to fast with good power in his punches
    on the other hand paulie has no power , he has fast hands but that will not
    do him any good as amir will eventually over power him

    The 1.25million dollar minimum does NOT include any of the revenue from UK TV.

    2 things have either happened to secure the fight, Khan agreed to a reduced fee OR HBO put up more money than 1.5 million as there is no way they could pay Pauli and run the event on 0.25million dollars

    Khan said on twitter few days back, he is getting less money as in contract, because he wants this fight for his debut in the USA.

    I really hope so. In all fairness this is what should happen. It should be a better split than 85-15! :)
