    So pacquio,mcgregor,crawford and brook are all tied up....and what with covid...Amir Khans last hustled and undeserving paydays are gone.

    He has no interest in fighting a live body.Apart from the scammed paydays v canelo & crawford he hasnt fought a top ten contender in a decade.

    He is too lazy to fight more than once a year and thinks a floyd fight is the one the worlds " begging for".

    He has universally insulted the intelligence of and gaslighted the world boxing community and casual fans.

    So whats left? Well he did think he could set up a "superfight" with that indian patsy whatever his name is with the corrupt saudi or U AE regimes blood money and his wife has been touting for a Kardashian type show.

    He has a large social media following so Khan will carry on his nonsense for the foreseeable future.

    As a fighter Khan is barely European level these days.

    So what next for Khan?

    Mental that the brook fights been sitting waiting on him for practically years. Struggling to get any other big name to fight him and still wont take the fight.

    Khans had an up and down career....but reckon avoiding the brook fight will leave with him being forever tarnished. Could have finished off his career on a positive.

    Guys like that need to just leave the sport. Mayweather as well...just milking money off fans now and basically stealing it from upcoming fighters.

    The paragraph about not wanting to fight any live body’s apart from only two of the best fighters of the current era in the world made me laugh , so Let me get this straight has no interest in fighting live Body’s apart from two undisputed p4p champions ??

    Retirement hopefully, should never have resurfaced after Canelo put him to bed.

    Khan had a great career and made a lot of money. I'm pretty sure he would be content if he never fought again.

    Given that we arent going to see any live boxing crowds back to full capacity until July next year. But most probably not at all in 2021 either.

    Khan might as well retire, because the money on offer for him right now to fight behind closed doors isnt going to motivate him.

    Thought he was something he wasn’t. Great speed but no defence and suspect chin. Apart from maidana he got found out nearly every time he tried the elite.

    just milking the fans now. Should have had the Brooke fight which would have ironically garnered plenty of cash only for his own arrogance.

    what happened with his family ??? Was there not a massive dispute over money going missing and now they’re all mates again ?? Doesn’t bode well for the future.

    You have to admire Khan's ability to keep people saying his name after years of irrelevance. Despite not being a serious contender he is probably in the top ten PPVs draws.

    Khan won't fight a legitimate opponent again, he is basically retired.

    I have a feeling he might do a "farewell fight" somewhere against some journeyman, Anthony Crolla style.

    But he won't fight anybody worth fighting.
