With Timothy Bradley out of the picture, IBF junior welterweight titlist Zab Judah has emerged as the frontrunner to face Amir Khan. Their stalled negotiations haven't prevented the fighters from taunting each other on Twitter. Both men took turns highlighting the embarrassing, early knockout losses on their respective ledgers (Khan to Prescott and Judah to Tszyu).

With Timothy Bradley out of the picture, IBF junior welterweight titlist Zab Judah has emerged as the frontrunner to face Amir Khan. Their stalled negotiations haven’t prevented the fighters from taunting each other on Twitter. Both men took turns highlighting the embarrassing, early knockout losses on their respective ledgers (Khan to Prescott and Judah to Tszyu). Interestingly enough, Judah’s claims he turned down what he deemed to be an unfair offer of a 45-55% split with Khan keeping all the UK revenue. Khan countered that he offered a 60-40% split with the fight taking place in Vegas. Main Events, Judah’s promoter, also chimed in that they could restart negotiations. Does Zab deserve a 50-50 split, or is Khan’s offer fair?
