    Amir Khan has become a journeyman/gatekeeper, that the top fighters are interested in fighting because they know it's an easy fight for a decent payday.

    Sad really to see Khan sell his Glass Jaw to the highest bidder like this, instead of going for competitive fights or fights the fans want to see.

    If he continues to sign up for complete mismatches like Canelo and Pac he will continue to be savagely KO'd, he should think about his family and his long-term health.

    I hope we don't have another post-Calzaghe Roy Jones situation here.

    i am more than happy to watch Khan get stiffened,do the funky chicken or folded up like a deck chair!!

    he is only really staying relevant in boxing due to highlight reels of him getting KTFO!..i thought Canelo had killed him

    This fight is winnable for Khan.

    Remember he has been chasing this for years, and has got it now that MP is way past it.

    I see a points win for Khan.

    Khan isn't a top 10 welterweight, I don't know where you have got the idea from that this is winnable for Khan. Pac just beat Bradley and Vargas lol...

    This is a cherry-pick from Pac as Khan is just a gatekeeper now who is somewhat of a draw.

    I will be flabbergasted if Khan wins, it would be one of the best wins in British boxing history. I give him almost no chance.

    His very next fight was at 154 for the 154 title after he handed his 160 strap to his daddy stating he ain't no 160 fighter
    That is how it played out and that is how it will be remembered
    Two duckers ducked there opposites and faced each other leaving the opposites having to face off at the real limit of 160
    They are the facts

    It would be nowhere near the biggest win in BBH.

    What it will be is a younger Khan taking advantage of an older fighter ala Barrera.

    It will be an easy points win for Khan, as he knows this is an easier fight than Brook.
