If he thinks a rematch with Cotto or Alvarez is the fight fans would rather watch than a fight with Khan then he is deluded. Khan may not deserve it yet and Khan might even get knocked out but that is an entertaining fight that many, many people would like to see.
Only the English want to see Khan get a payday. No one in the world thinks this is a fight. Especially since Khan got knocked out by someone Mayweather can beat in his sleep.
A wasted effort, when a rematch with Cotto, at least, would be better. A fight with Thurman, Pacman, Bradley, Garcia, or Andrade and GGG would be 100000 x's better.
