    I think he probably needs a good win or two before a Brook fights gets exciting again. He's wasted 18 months chasing impossible dreams and good hidings. He had built up a head of steam with the Collazo and the Alexander wins and then undid it all with a laboured win and a period of inactivity, chasing a pay day and an ass whooping.

    Maybe he can go down to 147. There's too much danger for him at 154, and he will have to be selective at 147. If i was his promoter, i'd be looking at someone like Guerrero or even Sadam Ali. There are plenty who he could theoretically beat, but he's always a mistake away from a KO. I'd be tempted to put him in with Bradley, because i think he can look good against him but then there's the worry that Bradley bombs a right hand over the top.

    As a fan, i'd love to see him fight Maidana again at some point, although i'm not sure he has the durability to get through it. So yeah, i'd personally go, Guerrero/ Ali and then maybe Brook or Bradley.

    Easy fight against a Malignaggi type puncher then milk it for one last pay day against Brook next May.

    Another few million should be guaranteed.

    Don't think he can come up with genuine excuse not to face Brook now.

    I see that fight having much the same outcome as Saturday.

    Still mandatory for Garcia. Either rematch and winner fights Brook in big money fight or Garcia vacates and Khan fights against a below par fighter to setup a big unification with Brook.

    I think Amir is one KO loss away from jacking it in.

    If Khan fights Garcia with the same discipline he showed against Canelo he'll wipe the floor with him. Fuck, i'd even give him a chance against Brook (although inevitably he'll end up stumbling around like a piss head against Brook).

    I know I'm stating the obvious but that's so funny with Khan isn't it

    "How will the fight go ?"

    "All depends if the other guy hits him"

    Am trying to think of other fighters who were like this - big Frank. Wouldn't really put Hearns in the same category but there were similarities.

    And that's his excitement factor which has made him a fortune. Can't be bad. Blessed with talent and speed mind - but feather fisted for the most part.

    Big Frank and Tommy had their own bombs which could end in in their favour at any time mind. Khan was decision or nothing

    I think Tyson Fury could be like that too.

    Khan is so bitter and twisted that he will not fight Brooks and give him a pay day.

    I think khan will target Garcia to avenge his loss.
