    Who do you guys think he should fight next??
    Ricky Hatton makes the most sense IMO. But at some point i'd like to see him fight Breidis Prescott again.

    I agree mate but do you think that will happen straight away? I think Hatton will be looking at a sort of tune up first.

    I think it will to be honest, they've been on about for the last few months. It makes the most sense to me, Ricky Hatton is past it. But he's still a good enough fighter. With a huge fanbase who draws in the money and the crowd.

    If Khan's next fight happens in the US, then I wanna see him against young talent like prospect Mark Melligen. C'mon Roach, hook him up. You know that fight will sell.

    Melligen's chin makes Khan look like Marvin Hagler. He got KO'd flat by a non-puncher. He's not as fast, not as good technically, although his power is not too bad. However, unless he gets to wear a headset into the ring, he would be KO'd.

    For some reason I'd like to see a Khan/Ortiz matchup.

    If they want him to fight stateside I imagine they will go for a guy with a high profile name but not too dangerous.

    Malignaggi would be a great choice, and he'd be fighting a guy who Hatton beat so the chance to make direct comparisons. If he beat Malignaggi it could nicely set up a fight between Khan and Hatton for next year.

    I'm presuming Khan will stay at junior welter now.

    By they way is nobody going to give the young Khan any credit for moving up a weight class and fighting for and winning a world title in (virtually) his first fight at the weight?

    How many fighters have done that? Marquez, Pacquaio, Floyd.......not bad company methinks.

    Hatton looked awful against Collazo and he was no more highly rated than Kotelnik at the time, merely seen as an unknown paper champ.
