Another dud... ranked 50 places lower than him on boxrec 12(3)-2-1 record - so no punching power
Has only fought one guy with a positive record that being Martin Watson and he lost a 10 rounder 99-90...
We can all pick oppenents for Khan, various other prospects etc but why fight a guy who in his last two fights lost and then struggled to beat Baz Carey (59-56) over 6x2.
Why not fight Martin Watson since he has just beaten this guy - similar record 14-3-1 - has beaten 3 guys who had only lost one previous, dropped a 59-55 to prospect Gavin Rees and pushed current British lightweight champion Lee Meager to a 96-94 decision.
Similar record, clearly very beatable - its not an unrealistic match at all. There was talk of Scott Lawton at one point whos a reasonble domestic fighter - Khan needs to be moving up slowly, picking on utter nobodies will teach him nothing - beating our fringe english / regional title contenders is virtually without risk but will also help him progress.
Another poor match in my opinion
