Schaefer wants Khan-Collazo

[Primo Carnera]

"and in fairness is a lot better fight for him then most of the guys at 147"

Why? Perhaps because he ain't good enough to beat the top guys. If that's the case, why should he fight Floyd?

Exactly! Bradley, Thurman, Pacman, Marquez, Brook, Porter, Alexander, Geuerrero would all be very dangerous fights for Khan. If he can fight Collazo, win, and then get the Mayweather fight that is great business for Khan.

This is a good fight for us fans to watch but it's a bad fight for khan because this is a classic example of a high risk/low reward matchup.

Beating collazo isnt going to earn him a floyd fight and if he loses which there is a high chance of happening, his run at the elite level will be pretty much over.. if he were to lose to collazo, that is it.

Khan should turn this fight down..

I agree with primo and silky..from a business sense.

Khan is yet again getting steered from danger to make him look good as he is more of a bigger sell than porter, thurman alexander and guerrera.

How annoying is that!

They should throw khan in with porter or guerrero and make a better statement at 147.

Khan is 2-3 fights away from mayweather and needs to fight three times this year.

A fight vs Luis Collazo is NOT an easy or a good deal for Khan.

Collazo is a southpaw, he's got a good chin, very solid defense, is equal parts cagey and slick, he's not a guy who is easy to score points on, land cleanly on, or win rounds against. I'm not a Collazo fan, but he's an Upset The Applecart kind of fighter...he damn near (and in most fight fans eyes he did) beat a PRIME Ricky Hatton in Ricky's first jump to 147. Collazo is like Pauli Malinaggi but with more power and he's a bit more durable (no offense to Paulie).

I would like to see Khan-Bradley, that would be a great match IMO. A tough fight, but one where less is at stake for Khan. If you lose to Tim Bradley big deal everyone has lost to him thus far, if you beat him (and do so convincingly) it's a HUGE deal.

I don't think Collazo is an easy fight for Khan. Seriously awkward style, tall, long arms and a lot of boxing skill. I can see him countering Khan all night and definitely making a fight of it.
