    it looks like khan is moving up to 147..this was his latest tweet

    "Garcia + peterson will be around much longer then floyd mayweather in boxing. I will take rematches with both at 147"

    since he cant fight in september cause of ramadhan,,,,, who is he going to face at 147 that is going to make him look good and is a name? if i were him i would wait and face the winner of the broner vs malinaggi fight then face mayweather if he wins ,,,this is most the likely route or face alexander which would be a very tough fight for him :think

    He's going to duck all the decent fighters at 147, he's already running from the 140lb division as it is. If he wasn't British then Mayweather would never fight him.

    khan vs broner will be a tough fight for both 50-50 especially if malinagi gives problems to broner

    He won't fight Ortiz, Maidana, Brook, Broner and a few more when he realises he's not good enough.

    He better pray for a miracle that malignaggi wins.

    Because a Broner fight would be very difficult for even if Broner has been moving up in weight alot. Having said that, a Khan-Broner fight would be intriguing

    Alexander looks like the most likely opponent.

    All fighters are risky for Khan. ALL.
    Brook, Alexander are the least risky.

    Khan will take a 147 "tuneup" fight with hopes that Mayweather will fight him at M.E.N. arena next Spring/Summer.

    Mayweather will probably fight Danny Garcia at 147 in September.

    That's 7 more pounds of pressure that could potentially hit his chin. Not good news for Khan at all.

    Khan has never ducked anybody, has the heart of a lion and is going to get better, he is still Young.

    No way, Khan's bad defense will lead him to getting caught, he will be hitting Broner he will get careless and Broner will catch him, once Broner hurts him he would walk him down for the whole fight
    Plus it would be at 147 Broner would probably out muscle him

    He don't deserve a Mayweather fight

    I guess they're creating a big event option for Floyd as a back up in case the Gasnelo fight don't happen next
