Khan up for fighting Mcgregor
HA!
You have to give him credit for being willing to fight anyone and for being able to get up Floyd's nose But I think he would be better off rematching Garcia or Peterson
"The 30 year-old lost to Canelo Alvarez via crushing knockout in May 2016, and despite being linked to fights against UK rival Kell Brook and former coaching partner Manny Pacquiao, his next move is yet to materialize.
As talk continues of a fight between UFC champion McGregor and Floyd Mayweather Jr. this year, Khan has reiterated his desire to explore the possibility of a move into MMA himself.
“I don’t know if I’d be any good at it but I’d give it my all," Khan said, according to The Mirror.
“He (Conor McGregor) wouldn’t know – I’d just hit him – bam-bam-bam-bam, but if he grabbed me I’m done, I’d have to work on that.
“Nate (Diaz, the last man to defeat McGregor) choked him out and Nate said to me ‘he’s not the best when you get him on the floor’, so he’s normally a stand up fighter."
Khan would also consider facing McGregor in the squared circle should a fight with Mayweather fall apart in the coming weeks.
“In boxing, I think I beat him quite easily in boxing but in MMA I think it might be tough but you just don’t know.
“Conor’s a fighter who’s put the UFC on the map, he knows how to market himself.
“This is what fighting is all about, it’s all about promoting yourself, sometimes being that bad guy and making yourself a big name.”

Re: Khan up for fighting Mcgregor
Khan is so desperate it is now becoming hilarious. He really should've taken the Brook fight when he had the chance. everybody knows he didn't want it because if he lost , he'd be finished. But hey , he's finished anyway, he can't buy a fight the desperate fuckin wanker!!!
meanwhile back at the ranch , his family has fleeced him for Millions!;D;D;D
Re: Khan up for fighting Mcgregor
I used to appreciate Khan but these days are kind of gone and I feel that he's just desperate for attention and a hefty juicy paycheck.
Re: Khan up for fighting Mcgregor
I would rather see Khan and his wife v his mum and dad in a tag team bloodbath.
Re: Khan up for fighting Mcgregor
Ah I can see it now
This would really be a case of the A side fight literally being the B side fight
Conor McGregor - the man who couldn't talk Floyd and his millions into fighting him
Amir Khan - the man who couldn't talk Floyd and his millions into fighting him
aside from the fact it is just never going to happen Khan is a fucking joke and this shouldn't even be being discussed.
Re: Khan up for fighting Mcgregor
Does Khan need money so badly that he is prepared to do this?
How low has he gone?
Remember the time he would fight all comers and the best fighters at the weight?
Where has than boxer gone?
Re: Khan up for fighting Mcgregor
;D Poor guy would fight the post man if it guaranteed enough camera time and 0's on his paycheck. And he's actually talking about a cage at first with "I'd have to work on that I just don't know". He's become the shouting kid raising his hand and jumping up to be noticed from the back of the classroom now. Really cannot take him serious
Re: Khan up for fighting Mcgregor
I'm not sure why anyone else (besides the bogus UAE offer) hasn't tried to pick up and carry the Pac-Khan fight. I'd much rather see Pac fight Thurman, Brook-Spence or Bradley but I feel this fight is at least on par with Haye-Bellew, Canelo-Chaver Jr etc.
