    Far be it from me to give Hearn his due but he called this weeks ago, he said the money isn't there and he has spoken to people involved with Pacquiao and they said it wasn't happening.


    I'd like to take this time to wish Khan all the best against Thurman assuming his pushes on his mandatory position with the WBC.

    And if he don't fancy getting KTFO by Thurman he better pray Brook gets past Spence Jr or he isn't getting paid large any time soon.

    When it was announced they worked out a split and the fight was on, I thought something wasn't right with no venue, no actual funding and so little time, it was never going to happen was it..

    Yo bro, of course Uncle Bob is involved as PAC is his dying cash cow.
    Bob will tell PAC they can offer Horne next to nothing so prepare for this or something even worse.
    I think PAC still has some Pop inside him but Bob is going to play his last few fights/cards very carefully and be very selective....#Snoooozefest

    I don't believe Thurman with his overrated "one time (lol)" power can hurt Khan. Maidana couldn't and he had a better punch, I could see Khan getting what would have to be considered the upset there. I don't even like Khan, but with his speed if his chin can hold up like it did against Maidana I think Run Time would be in trouble.

    Maybe this was just a ploy by Arum/Pac to get Horn's people to take next to nothing for the fight in Aussieland...

    Dear god, Thurman would ANNIHILATE Khan and his Glass Jaw. You are talking about two completely different levels of fighter here.

    Eggington and Skeete are available for Khan, will he avoid them like he avoided Brook?

    Thurman doesn't have the pop to even put a crack in Khan's fine china chin :naughty2:

    I've seen sandcastles that stay up longer than Khan's chin. Khan has absolutely no chin, none.

    Khan could have fought any bum in boxing in the UAE if it was something real. Naseem never fought there either at the mega height of is career , so you are super right.

    In recent memory, Algieri walked down and rocked Khan a few times, Julio Diaz who had seen far better days and was a career lightweight dropped Khan heavily and with respect I thought Canelo had seriously damaged him and I think Canelo himself thought he had seriously damaged him too.

    And what do you mean by "hurt", do you mean dropped? rocked? seriously wobbled?

    Maidana didn't hurt Khan? have you seen round 10 of that fight? And that's not "hurt"?

    Thurman, Garcia, Porter, Brook, Spence Jr all knock Khan out, no problem, not even debatable in my mind.

    By hurt I meant beat Khan with his power. With his bicycle skills sure, but his punch wouldn't stop the current most famous china chin.
