Khan's next opponent is possibly......
.... Martin Gethin the Walsall man.
If Khan losses this then he should defo retire. He should win but it will be interesting whilst it lasts. If he does not get rid of Gethin early then I Gethin could spring the upset.
However I do not believe Gethin's chin has been tested yet so will be interesting.
Re: Khan's next opponent is possibly......
Khan will definatly be fighting another Featherweight and a light punching one at that.
Just a thought this will be PPV so im sure Sky will want someone legit.
Re: Khan's next opponent is possibly......
this guys the english lightweight champion i think, dont know much about him...
its is as good as confirmed as Kahns next fight..
Re: Khan's next opponent is possibly......
It's actually a decent test for Khan. Gethin has fought at jr-welterweight and KO'd John Fewkes..
Re: Khan's next opponent is possibly......
Is going to be a very limited fighter of very limited punching power!
Tho to be fair he does need to build his confidence back up.
Re: Khan's next opponent is possibly......
15-0 (7 KO's) not a bad record looks quite a decent fighter this would be a good fight back for Khan.
Re: Khan's next opponent is possibly......
I suppose thats not too bad for his first fight after his defeat.
Re: Khan's next opponent is possibly......
Perhaps he should go English title then British title get his Commonwealth back then European title then think about world titles perhaps by then the Lightweight world stage won't be as strong.
Re: Khan's next opponent is possibly......
can anyone really see Warren trying to sell this as a ppv match ??
He said last time he hd to to pay Khan what he wanted. Khan needs to know he is not box office yet and lower his expectation.
Seems decent enough record for a confidence builder opponent but can't see Khan struggling here.
Its early december right ??

My thoughts exaclty, Gethin, Murray, Romanov and if he beats them 3 then maybe he does stand a chance
Re: Khan's next opponent is possibly......
If Warren says he has to pay Khan what he wants then I am shocked. Hopefully for Khan the fight against Prescott was a blip and he will learn to keep improve his defence. Only problem is his chin. Interesting to see if Gethin can drop him as well.
