Amir Kahn Opinions & Who Should Be Up Next?

[MIKAY]

LOL JMM after 2 more fights are you crazy. JMM would sloater him. I think he should 2-3 more fights, continue working on his defence and perfect it. Then take a rematch with presscot and move slowly up. Rushing him will just end up in a brutal fasion. He has all the potential in the world but they need to perfect that defence!! it looked good today but was against a slow barrera, no reach and not powerful at the weight. Great result 4 khan

I certainly wouldn't put him in with Prescott for his next fight, let's get Roach working with him for a year or so at least first to totally iron out the defensive flaws so Khan can go in totally confident of victory.

For me I think the best fight next would be Michael Katsidis.

Khan isn't ready for Juan Manuel Marquez and he can't fight Manny as they are stablemates, (although again he clearly isn't ready) but a fight with Katsidis who is well known in the UK for his crushing win over Khan victim Graham Earl would be a natural next step and a great matchup.

Katsidis would be coming to win, would throw everything at Khan but has enough technical flaws that a properly excuted gameplan would see Khan get the victory.

I think that's a great next fight.

Apart from that I really want to see him take on some domestic rivals as well. Thaxton has probably missed his chance now but John Murray is an obvious challenger, these two really need to fight.

Well I think the new Amir Khan would beat Prescott now.. Prescott was a slugger, there's a video of him on youtube where he looks terrible as he can't land any clean shots.. but it would be an interesting fight never the less and one Khan needs to take to excercise any demons and get the critics off his back.

As for JMM after 2 more fights, why not? He's showed he can box, he's showed he has the speed, all he needs to do in his next 2-3 fights is show he can take a whack. If Khan waited another 6 fights to fight JMM he would be accused of being protected more.. so I say fight him while he's here, and JMM probably won't be here for much longer.

Next fights I say..

1. Murray
2. Prescott
3. Katsidis
4. ??

I guess if he waits on too long for a shot at JMM you will then get the "JMM was old and shot" b******t.

Good points but remember his defence looked good againts and old slow tired looking barrera. Im just saying be a little coutious this time round. work at the defence for another 12 months and then move on to the heavy punchers.

1) Murray
2)Another domestic
£) Katsidis or presscot
4/5) Maybe Baby boy or some other top light weight but not JMM!!

I'm going to be unpopular with this, but a rematch with Barrera. If Barrera is to lose he should lose properly.

[:::PSL:::]

Prescott for sweet redemption.

I think a rematch makes sense, it would sell well too. Barrera deserves a rematch

Headbutt first round, fighting with one eye for several rounds. It should have been a NC. Khan was slick but didn't beat Barrera here, Khan hasn't silenced anyone with this.

Barrera deserves another chance, if he wants it that is.

[THE THIRD MAN]

Katsidis !

[Dark Lord Al]

I think Khan will want to avenge the Prescott loss , and thats the fight i want to see.

[TheDemolitionDan]

Number 1 on his list has to be Breidis Prescott, if he beats him that proves a lot and it bumps him up to that next level.
