According to ESPN Lamont Peterson is the front runner for Khan's next fight

i doubt the Maidana rematch takes place, as much as i want it too

 

A man can dream...

I definately think he fights 3 times next year at least though.

 

Yea, I see what you're saying now Beenie.. Why not make the Bradley fight next..

 

I applaud it when fighters elect to stay busy, I just don't like it when there are more appropriate options available. Peterson would be ok if the 'big players' of the division were unavailable. In this case, the Bradley-Alexander winner (which will be an undefeated unified champion at 140) will be available. And when you consider that this is what Khan has publicly asked for, it's a fight that must happen, imv.

 

not a terrible opponent but would rather see him fight prescott or the TB/DA winner

 

True.

If the Bradley/Alexander winner is ready and willing to fight by then I think he should definately take that fight first.

 

:thumbsup

 

Now we just have to wait for Bradley-Alexander to find out who the other top dog at 140 is.

I just hope the fight is at least halfway as good as Khan-Maidana was.

 

Why are people so dead set on rematching Prescott? I just don't understand it. Prescott SUCKS. It was a bad loss. Khan learned from it. But it proves NOTHING to rematch a guy who has proven over and again that he's no good at all, especially after Khan just survived against a bigger puncher than Prescott.

 

Bradley-Alexander has a rematch clause, so the winner probably isn't actually available. Plus, even if they are, they won't be available until late April. If Khan fights in late April, that probably means he'll only be able to take two fights a year because he can't train during Ramadan. Maybe he can squeeze in a third fight in late July, but if he's already just fought the Bradley-Alexander winner, then it's not like there would be many great opponents available in July anyway.

On the other hand, if he takes an easy fight in March, then the Bradley-Alexander winner, if there's no rematch, should still be available in June.

 

Lamont Peterson will have his ass handed to him!
I dont understand why people are moving away from bradley/alexander! the fight is soon and khan can easily face the winner, the timing is perfect!
Prescott is a BUM and no way should khan waste his time beating him

 

Ideal 2011 for Khan:

1. Judah
2. Bradley/Alexander Winner
3. Marquez

Then move up to 147

One last note, I wouldn't lose any respect for Khan if he gets an S/D or Draw against Marquez. The potential benefit for him to learn from such a fight before taking on fighters at 147 is immeasurable.

 

Zab judah fight is pointless imo! doesnt prove anything by beating him....go straight to bradley/alexander and then make movements after the outcome of that fight

 

Well, according to Khan himself, he said one fight in UK against Judah/Peterson in April, then Bradley/Alexander in July and then a big fight in December at 147.

I just want to see Khan/Marquez. That's my dream fight right now, irrespective of who wins or loses.

 

Informed as always, Brick. :thumbsup

Didn't know about the rematch clause.
