    He is taking the boxing route through 147

    Alexander & Bradley

    Smart.

    Both fighters that Khan believes he can beat but for one reason or another they didn't manage to meet when they were all at 140

    Khan will or should probably call out Bradley Vs Marquez winner - depending on the outcomes of future fights (Garcia Matthysse and Canelo Mayweather etc)

    Makes sense really no?

    Beat the winner of JMM/Bradley, beat Broner, beat Garcia/Mathysee winner. Khan is a great money fight, so just 1 of those big wins will get him a fight for sure.

    Alexander + Guerrero - if he manages to beat them would make him viable, lets face it mayweather is running out of opposition

    Deleted it because I realised I had said the exact same thing as the OP.

    Why not Broner he can be the new Berto.

    Bradley is with Top Rank, so you forget about a Khan/Bradley matchup.

    Broner is an undefeated top 10 WW titlist. He's also one of the biggest draws in the sport. He's anything but irrelevant.

    I think Khan has an easier time with Broner than Alexander. Devon does not posses startling power, but he can time an opponent. I can actually imagine him taking Khan out within the distance.

    And anyhow, it appears that Khan could end up fighting Brook next year.

    I would pick Khan to beat Broner. Khan beat Zab Judah easily, and Zab is similar to Broner.

    Is he?

    Zab is southpaw. Broner is orthodox.

    Zab is a boxer. Broner is a boxer-puncher.

    Not sure where the similarities lie.

    Could Amir Khan be next in line for a career high pay day vs. Floyd 'Money' Mayweather Jr.? According to Richard Schaefer (CEO for Golden Boy Promotions) there is a strong possibility.

    Quoted by The Daily Star, in regards to pitting Khan against Mayweather, Schaefer stated:: “Yes, it’s certainly a distinct possibility that the pair will meet... it would be a massive fight."

    Schaefer added to the UK based publication: "Amir has told me he wants the fight and there is no reason why it should not take place, with Wembley being a very viable venue. Whenever it takes place, you would get more than 80,000 fans inside Wembley and that will be a huge fight to have and one that I know Amir’s very keen on."

    Floyd Mayweather faces off against Saul Alvarez, Tonight in Las Vegas (MGM Grand) and live on SHOWTIME PPV (PAY-PER-VIEW).
