    Just read in the paper here in Engalnd that Frank Warren believes that if Amir Khan beats MAB he will be in line to face none other that Juan Manuel Marquez!!!

    WTF??????

    This is a man that was stunned by the first jab thrown by a mediocre fighter in Bredis Prescott & Warren wants him in there with JMM?? Is this Warren realising Khan is nowhere near the fighter that he'd hoped and just getting as much money out of him before he no longer has any worth?? Cus if (by some miracle) he beats Barerra, there wont be much left after JMM disposes of him!!!

    Lose fight, make money. Even better if you can promote and make money, that way you don't lose the fight.

    I doubt JMM even knows who Khan is outside of the kid that spars with Pac sometimes.

    He has a lot to do to even be deserving to dream about fighting JMM.

    I stand corrected and agree with JMM.

    That said my 2nd point still remains ... Khan is nowhere near deserving of a fight with JMM win or lose.

    Marquez has clearly showed he wants the big money fights now.
    Unless Warren offers HUGE money Khan won't get in the same ring with Marquez

    If Khan beats Barrera then Warren will somehow make khan the WBO mandatory and Marquez wont want to fight him because he is only after big fights so he will probably vacate the WBO and Khan will probably end up fighting some unknown fighter fot the vacant belt.

    the wbo would make a cripple mandatory if warren asked them to. Much like Kings relationship with the wba, except smaller and shittier

    Yeah I think it's posted on another thread that if Khan wins he becomes JMM's mandatory for the WBO title:!::!:

    barrera is number 1 if khan beats him then he has a decent shout at becomming the mandatory like him or hate him. i think warren is hoping that jmm will move up so khan can avoid him and fight a lesser fighter for the vacant belt. if they were to fight though it could do good for amir's reputation if he was to put up a good shoing against the number 2 p4p fighter in the world. having said that if the fight does go ahead my prediction is jmm by moider.

    Roach said he doesn't want Khan going against one of the world title holders for at least 3 more fights.

    Which is the right thing to do because he hasn't any proper experience to fight any of the top guys.
