it would show his commitment to his UK fans and when he does come and fight over here he may make the fight be at a more reasonable time for uswhicker wrote:Given his change of promoters, it would seem that Khan himself perhaps isn't greatly interested in being on UK TV- but then, who knows?
It would be weird going from a pay per view world champ to someone just being shown on delay. 8)
I think he's entitled to make as much dough as he can - that on a large level needs to be done in the US on PPV.Adamj1987 wrote:it would show his commitment to his UK fans and when he does come and fight over here he may make the fight be at a more reasonable time for uswhicker wrote:Given his change of promoters, it would seem that Khan himself perhaps isn't greatly interested in being on UK TV- but then, who knows?
