I did explain how seeing Thaxton struggle with Stewart suggests that a world level fighter will be needed to test Khan. Your just too one dimensional to understand.

Only Romanov Is worth talking about on the Euro scene.

The domestic Lightweights which Is Thaxton's level are too mediocre above domestic level. They wait too long to throw anything and are so easy to hit and have barely any Intelligent boxing ability about them except Limond.

Murray and Thaxton are overrrated as any threat to Khan. Murray struggles with undersized Mexican journymen like In his last fight.

No point talking about his chin unless It's a proper fighter who can box and doesn't just go for the KO, It won't teach Amir a thing and he'll see them coming. And Limond hit him on the temple, not the chin.

Stewart would be destroyed by Khan.

Hennessy's 400k wasn't a bid, It was an offer to Khan. Khan would breach his ITV contract because he would have to fight on a Hennessy show to take that offer because he's contracted to FW and ITV. It even said that In one of the Boxing news Issues recently before this weeks that they turned that 400k offer down for that reason.

I remember when Froch pretended they offered Calzaghe 1.6 million to fight him! :lol:

Some of really lack the business side of why these fights can't happen at times.

He ain't worth a libel case, he Is Warren's slave.

so basically Thaxton can take the crumbs FW is willing to dish out and do it on ITV, or the fight wont happen?

Thaxton was offered 125k or something near that, hardly crumbs. Thats more than Thaxton's ever made probably.

I'd take the ladies toilet but I'm a perv. :lol:

Wasn't there an article saying Khan would fight him after St Clair anyway?

I thought the purse bids were for a fight before the end of April anyway.... I dont think FW will let Khan fight on Sky, and Hennessy wont want to be the away team if its Thaxtons belt on top as it were (unfortunately its not trumps lol)

Can ITV 'see other people' as it were?

Khan can;t fight on sky he's contracted to fight on ITV.

They claimed FW sent no offer to Thaxton but FW's side and Boxing chat say there was a 125k offer.

I want the fight because I think Thaxton's bad overrated and want to be proved right but both sides are whinging babies.

That said though when Hennessy has a fight who rivals a FW fight, man he can moan.

Id pay 200 pound for a seat at that.... put it at Wembley, cheapest seats 200, and that is at least 18 million cos you know that will sell out. plus PPV all over the world for a bill like that, not massive but probably 200'000 buys at least, 25 quid a go thats 5 million, now the advertising must get you another 5 at least? thats 28 million, you can pay the purses and the bar bill out of that
