    He's done **** all though. Litzau, shot Casamayor, and Katsidis, should not earn someone a shot at the no1 or 2 in a division they've never fought in IMO. Katsidis wasn't the best at 135, and if not Marquez there's plenty of
    more fighters for Guerrero to fight at 135.

    He hasn't stuck around anywhere. I don't like that myself.

    :lol:

    Because Guerrero wants the fight, and watching Guerrero's fight with Kats, I think it would be exciting.

    Guerrero isn't akward like McCloskey. He doesn't dance with his upper body throughout the whole fight. He comes to fight.

    I think it would be a great fight and a very stern test.

    I don't believe this crap about just because Amir didn't look good against a southpaw suddenly means they're hell for him.

    Styles make fights, and that would be a good one.

    A scary fight at that :scaredas:

    Hell, I'd probably wait till the result appears on Boxrec :lol:

    Judah's power is big.

    Guerrero doesn't come to fight, I think he looks pretty unhappy in close (luckily he'll have no problems here with Khan, who is a shockingly bad inside fighter), he throws nice straight one-twos from mid-range using his reach. He's a sharp but not concussive hitter. I agree he'd make for a good fight with Khan don't get me wrong, his jab would pose Amir problems IMO. My point was he's in no position to be deserving a shot, it'd be another **** take in the saga of meaningless World titles.

    I agree with Darni; an even harder matchup though IMO.

    Khan wants them belts at 140, Bradley don't want to play, so Zab is the next title holder.

    We as fans want good tough fights, Beating Judah would add a known name to his record and add another World Title, no doubt Judah has the power to hurt Khan, but then this is what this sport is about taking tough fights and gaining respect and fame.

    Fair play Darni I agree :good

    Laz, I do of course agree that Guerrero is not a negative fighter, when I said he didn't 'come to fight' I wasn't insinuating he was a runner, only that he is fairly calculated and likes to use his range. Again, though not a big puncher he is fast and accurate enough to catch Khan with a cross when the kid gets his feet muddle again.

    But I'd Zab, more well known, a bigger puncher, established at the weight (after having success above as well) is the better choice. But also the riskier choce but Darni, honestly couldn't put it better myself you should either 'do it properly' or don't bother at all IMO.

    The likes of McCloskey should not have been entertained now, in the future it should be World Class opposition or universal derision IMO.

    Spot on :good

    I think it's fair to say Khan left Warren and joined GBP to try and see how far he can go and make the best fights at his weight over in the States at his young age for that I am happy and as a Khan fan that's all I can ask for.

    And Flea is right fights like McCloskey should not be entertained again, but I guess it was ok as a home coming keep busy fight, a stunt I don't think Khan will try again any time soon.

    If Bradley has turned down £825,000 purse, does anyone know how much Khan would be picking up? You would of thought it would be straight down the middle or abit more for Bradley...

    Exactly.The sonner Khan realises he is not the star and Bradley is the champion with 2 belts the sooner this fight gets made.Khan cannot dictate to Bradley,it should be the other way around.

    Khan on Facebook:

    "via Taz. Bradley is signing with Top Rank and will fight Pacquiao in November."

    Proof that Bradley is ducking Khan for a shot at the faded Pacquiao.
