    It's a logical fight, but from what I've seen of Thurman he's a big strong Welterweight and can punch. Not the combination Khan wants to be going in with, but also a fight that would need to happen at some point.

    If Khan turns up in the mood he was for Maidana he could take it, but most likely ends with him getting flattened.

    I think this is a 50/50 fight.

    Khan stands a chance, cause technically he is a fantastic boxer just in one of the best divisions in boxing. winner to fight Kell Brook maybe?

    Hard fight for Khan Alexander only really lost on cuts to Bradleys head and got a close hometown decision against Matthysse .

    Given Alexander isn't much of a puncher, you wonder whether all the defensive stuff Virgil Hunter has been teaching him is just going to be a distraction. He'd be better off making sure his head's clear and he's firing on all cylinders offensive.

    I don't see Khan hanging around much longer anyway. If he wins here it'll be Floyd, if he loses it will be Brook. He doesn't have many options outside of that.
