    he's a legitimate 140 ighter, he gave bradley a good fight, drew with ortiz and beat cayo. he's a very good boxer and will present amir with more problems than judah did(thats not hard).

    **** erik morales! he's a legend but he would get demolished by khan at 140, it would be like the barrerra fight. khans style is all wrong for morales.

    peterson vs khan next!!!!!!!

    yeah to be honest i was more venting about the morales fight. any of that group would be good. Guerrero is a tough fight though. he has great speed and decent power, but his best asset is his timing. khan is quicker but he can lung in at time giving a guy like guerrero an opening.

    guerrero beats bradley though. he's a much better version of alexander.

    He's the mandatory now, isn't he? So he'll face Khan sooner or later unless Khan drops the IBF belt.

    How could prescott pose Khan any problems whatsoever, judging on khans current form?

    Khan offered peterson a career high pay day, but peterson ducked him. I don't think it would last longer than 5 rounds anyway, khan would stop him.

    much better option than morales. khan cant be beating up old greats. he needs to give legitimate challengers at the weight a chance. the only guys worth fighting are:
    geurrero, maidana, peterson, alexander, matthysse.

    fight between khan morales would be khan on his toes flying in with speed and power and morales taking shots. it would probably last 12 rounds cus morales is a beast, but he doesn't have the power or speed to troble khan at all.

    im not trying to diss morales cus i said the same thing about him against maidana and he proved me wrong. but styles make fights and its clear khan is all wrong for erik.

    Np he didn't, Bradley beat the hell out of him. Anyway, he's still a good fighter and I'd much rather see Khan/Peterson than Khan/Morales.

    Peterson has gotten a bit better since the Bradley fight. Khan would be favored to win, but Peterson could give Khan hell with his bodywork. And its a MUCH more competitive fight than Morales-Khan.

    I Love Morales but Khan stops him at this point in a blowout. Totally pointless fight. Who knows if Morales will even beat Barrios.
