Thread: Who should Khan fight next?

Apparently they want his next fight in the Usa. If Roach is serious about Morales that is a disgrace. Kahn is a World Champ now not a 12-15 fight novice fighting a faded name.

I thought Khan did a great job in all last nite and some people on here have been a bit unfair, he basically shut out a tough champion, Khans problem is he has no power whatsoever and still likes to lunge in against a banger I think he gets knocked out, how far he goes now depends on who he is matched with, a fight I would like probably wont happen as it would be to dangerous in Warrens eyes would be Zab Judah for his Us debut, I think that would be a cracking fight at 140.

Who do you guys think he should fight next??

Not sure.

Prescott/Bradley/Torres/Holt/Cambell/Hatton/Klitschko

Any of those will do for me.

ad like to see prescott or hatton even juda would be a gd fight but prescott is the only 1 ad give him a slight chance with hatton and juda would knock him out and its 50/50 with prescott but if i were khan ad want to fight the guy who ko me be4

Presscot will never get a crack he just lost on friday to sum bum, he brings nothing to the table as a fighter in sure Khan wants nothing more but Warren is a business man Prescott brings nothing to the table he was just beaton on some small hall show in the States by a bum.

Judah is a name in the Usa is not in his prime but still classy fighter id love to see that fight, pretty certain ti wont happen. Warren i feel would fancy the Hatton fight makes business sense.

I'd like to either see him with Hatton over here or maybe if he's going to the US, take on Malignaggi if he beats Diaz or Maidana as a co-feature on a decent card.

He should fight Prescott to avenge the loss....I'm sure it's do-able for Freddie Roach to get Khan ready to pick apart Prescott.

Other than that I'd say Kendall Holt, Junior Witter, or Ricky Hatton

Yeah. I agree that we wont see Khan-Prescott rematch, he brings nothing to the table indeed.

Ricky Hatton makes the most sense IMO. But at some point i'd like to see him fight Breidis Prescott again.

I agree mate but do you think that will happen straight away? I think Hatton will be looking at a sort of tune up first.

I think it will to be honest, they've been on about for the last few months. It makes the most sense to me, Ricky Hatton is past it. But he's still a good enough fighter. With a huge fanbase who draws in the money and the crowd.

If Khan's next fight happens in the US, then I wanna see him against young talent like prospect Mark Melligen. C'mon Roach, hook him up. You know that fight will sell.

Who ?

EDIT

Just checked he's from the Phillipines no wonder you want it and i fail to see how that will sell.

Melligen's chin makes Khan look like Marvin Hagler. He got KO'd flat by a non-puncher. He's not as fast, not as good technically, although his power is not too bad. However, unless he gets to wear a headset into the ring, he would be KO'd.

For some reason I'd like to see a Khan/Ortiz matchup.

If they want him to fight stateside I imagine they will go for a guy with a high profile name but not too dangerous.

Malignaggi would be a great choice, and he'd be fighting a guy who Hatton beat so the chance to make direct comparisons. If he beat Malignaggi it could nicely set up a fight between Khan and Hatton for next year.

I'm presuming Khan will stay at junior welter now.

By they way is nobody going to give the young Khan any credit for moving up a weight class and fighting for and winning a world title in (virtually) his first fight at the weight?

How many fighters have done that? Marquez, Pacquaio, Floyd.......not bad company methinks.

Hatton looked awful against Collazo and he was no more highly rated than Kotelnik at the time, merely seen as an unknown paper champ.
