    Default khan wants Marquez or Bradley if no Mayweather

    I still think he should fight Brook, but I'd happily see him take on Marquez or Bradley. Both would be outstanding fights.

    Agreed Tam and he needs to forget about Floyd for now and just knuckle down and crack on with doing what he's doing.

    I don't ever see a Khan v Mayweather fight happening

    To be totally honest I don't want to see Khan get a crack at Mayweather and I dont think Khan deserves a fight with Mayweather. Yes he's coming of the back of 2 decent wins but for me he needs to do more than that to get a shot at Floyd. I think Marquez or Bradley would be a good matchup for him but I'm not actually sure how much of Bradley's heart is left in the game these days! Marquez though, despite being very old in boxing terms is a very dangerous fight. He would obviously be at a disadvantage as far as speed goes, but Marquez' timing and counter punching ability may well just be enough to catch Khan and score the KO even at this late stage of his career. If he does indeed fight and defeat one of those 2 then I would begin to feel he was edging somewhere near deserving a fight with Floyd.

    As for Floyd though, I'd like to see the Pacquiao fight finally come off, a fight in which I've only ever seen Mayweather winning and also a fight I think may now actually be about to happen. Then I'd absolutely love to see him go upto 154lbs and take on Golovkin, who apparently is willing to drop the weight to fight Mayweather and to be honest he certainly isn't the biggest Middleweight I've ever seen, even if his punches are some of the hardest I've ever seen at the weight. I'm not sure which way I would go if that fight was made!!

    If Mayweather sticks to his word and only has 2 fights left, Khan will not be one of them, so he should forget it. Pacquiao takes up one and probably Cotto takes up the next one.

    I can see why Khan Advisers would fancy these match ups. this is how they see it (although I don't 100% agree.)
    Marquez - Getting on. use his speed to get in and out.
    Bradley - no power. so even if he gets caught, he should be ok.
    I'm not a Khan fan, but IF he fights either of these guys and IF he beats them, then I will concede that he deserves a shot a Floyd as much as anyone.
    I would love to see Khan V Bradley and as much as I like Bradley , sometimes he is so indisciplined in his gameplan that Khan could beat him. However, if Bradley fights smart, he whoops Khan.

    For the record I would pick Khan to beat both of those guys.

    I don't know why he's not calling out guys on his side of the street. There is a much higher chance of the fights actually taking place. How about Broner? Big money fight etc.

    Khan's style is what makes it a fight worth talking about.

    It's a subjective question: Is he deserving or not anymore than Guerrerro was?

    If we go by losses of Khan, then how was Gatti worthy? Baldomir? Heck, Judah?
    Wasn't there a poll Floyd conducted himself? Asking the fans? They chose Khan, Floyd basically said Fuck khan and the fans and went with Maidana.

    It is improbable, but I can only hope Pac knocks his ass straight the fuck ...out.

    Khan should forget Floyd for now, there are other significant bouts that Khan fits into A victory over Bradley or Marquez gives Khan a stronger case to fight Floyd A fight with Brook seems a natural

    I agree. but can't blame the guy; he knows the sand in floyd's hour glass is almost out.

    I just received word that Floyd has agreed to fight Khan.

    He set the date for the 31st of next month.

    Khan must want to join Top Rank and beat up their fighters.

    I think it is his way to get a fight with Manny Pac.

    Marquez would be stupid to fight Khan, besides Marquez is only after legacy at this point and has no reason to fight Khan because there is no Belt.

    If he did, it would send a message that he fights all the fighters PBF or Pac won't.
