Credit where its due he is going all out for the big payday.
If he could just do it as quickly as possible avoiding getting knocked the fornicate out I would have no problem .Trouble is he will avoid people all the while accusing them of it then dodge his way to getting sparked by Floyd and say he earnt it the hard way .And im afraid our national pride will be cashed in so Amir can keep himself in Bentley's in retirement.
Wonder if Broner threw him a bone he'd take it .....

If he beats Alexander or Broner then he can get the Mayweather fight.

Fair enough he Mayweather is being forced to fight due to his contract and recent poor sales.
So Khan will get the shot as he poses no threat to Floyds 0.
Alexander is very beatable no way Broner v Khan is happening though IMO

khan v broner could be a nice payday, so khan has a lot to fight for if/when this fight with alexander comes off. these are victories not to be taken for granted - IF he can get them. you don't have to beat the #1 guy in the sport, mayweather, to be relevant.

oh, and JMM v Bradley, that's another fight for khan to watch out for.

Not as big a payday as cashing out against the no 1.
Plus legacy not as damaged with a loss to Floyd.
He has already swerved Bradley wisely IMO
JMM wouldn't sell I dont think but would be worth watching though I dont see Khan winning that either.
I hope Brook can create enough hype to draw Amir into a great domestic fight . Though im realistic enough as is Kell to know that it might never happen be ashame to see another top British clash fail to materialise.

Bradley was gonna get 1.2 million dollars who ever he fought team Khan offered considerably less and when he said no said he was a coward.
A trick our top promoter of the last 25 yrs employs regularly they learnt from the best .

I can't see Khan surviving Alexander given his life or death with a shot Julio Diaz.

I hope your right but its his best chance and with his sights on Mayweather he might be able to follow a game plan that and a little help from one of golden boys refs.Its a bigger fight Khan vFloyd than Devon v Floyd and GBP love Khan.

Does Alexander punch harder than Diaz?

I think Khan can beat Alexander.

I completely disagree, if only Khans PR team were as good as him.

He's an olympic silver medalists, world champion and his PR team are a bunch of untrained buffoons who do more damage than good.

That's just crazy, do you even believe that?
HBO had guaranteed $1.2m by HBO after he beat Alexander. He was offered $1.5m to fight Khan by HBO, but backed out.

He wasn't offered less to fight Khan. What is more it was HBO who did the negotiations with Bradley not "Team Khan".

am i missing something?
bradley ducked khan .. dan rafael said that because of the hbo guarantee that he can be paid $100,000 less to fight an easier opponent ... even Bradley's team have openly admitted it.. Bradley is a very unpopular fighter and has no fan base... he couldn't even sell thousands of tickets at his home... you thinking khan ducked Bradley is absolutely incredible....

if khan could duck john thaxton , its not beyond the bounds of belief that he could duck the "talentless " bradley.

Hi risk. No reward.

Where is Thaxton now?
Apart from Thaxtons family and a few due hard boxing fans wanting it, it made zero sense for Amir. Boxing 101

Why would Khan after seeing the job he did on Alexander fancy fighting him your argument defies logic.
I cannot wait till we can stop talking about Khan his flid fans like yourself refuse to acknowledge his faults which are numerous.
He ditched us long before we ditched him so wake up or better still just fu.ck off.
You're making a fool of yourself.

it was high risk , and short term no reward.... but had he been put in against punchers he might have actually developed a defence and thus matured into a top drawer fighter who would have a chance against the real elite of the divisions .
