Hennessy must have money to burn!
Maybe Thaxton will fight him for free after all!

I think Khan will want the fight for that money! I wonder what SN is paying Khan for this fight?
Khan can buy a Zonda (Sports Car) with that money!
Khan will dump Warren one day and then all fishy faces will say is AMIR IS A CUUNT!

Warren has offered him something no one else could which was building a realy seriouse UK fan base. Yes they fanny about promotionaly but he's making nufff money and getting opponents he beats so its all working well for him, If I were him I'd stay with warren until warren buys me a title than move to GBP or someone with real international clout.

GBP would probably have made him more money but also had him in tougher fights by now.

Hops little nephew ain't exactly In tougher fights by now and why did they match Marquez who's a talent against Juarez?

What's wrong with Juarez? He's world class isn't he? Just because Marquez is a talent doesn't mean he is going to get a big one everytime, i mean Barrera, Juarez, Pacquiao is a half decent run of fights if you ask me.
I wasn't getting at Frank (god forbid) i just mean GBP in my humble opinion may have been inclined to move him along just a wee tad faster...allegedly.

I think by now Thaxton knows that Khan isn't going to fight him. Thaxton, fight Murray ffs.

Two losses In previous title shots to Barrera and a tuneup doesn't say he was a good choice.

Warren already gave Thaxton a huge offer anyway why does fresh offers keep coming?
Hennessy hasn't even ever paid Witter that much money and he's a world champ so can he really afford It?

People had huge hopes for Juarez when he came on the scene, after turning pro from a solid amateur career. The Yanks have said that GBP are a little prone at rushing their fighters into title shots and use him as an example.
He's a natural feather who beat Raheem, almost beat Barrera (once on SD many people thought he should've won) and has only lost to Soto, Barrera and Marquez. The last two were at Super Feather. That's not a bad resumé.
However, Rocky couldn't beat a top 10 lightweight, he's just too small. I'd like to see him face Chris John though.

It wasn't him who withdrew from the purse bids, though.
