    This is Steve Bunces idea but i totally agree

    This would be a perfect fight for Amir Nov/Dec time and really help him to get some exposure in the US on the undercard of a big fight.....maybe pacs next fight.

    Diaz doesn't do speed well. If Amir could KO him faster than pac could....then surely hes ready for his world title shot.

    Thoughts??

    DDDiaz KO 2. Good fight for Diaz to get back into the mix with though. Khan is a decent name, btu I don't think he would cause Diaz too many problems.

    Khan would wipe him out.

    I pick Diaz, Amir Khan was getting hurt by Limond and Gomez, just because Pac schooled him doesn't mean Khan will do the same.

    Great fight for Khan. Diaz is very ordinary & would struggle to cope with Khan's handspeed. If Khan can deal with the pressure its a good name for the record that should raise his status.

    Khan is also very ordinary, hes just being fed a diet of bums.

    Nope. He has bags of natural ability & is still very young. He just needs a good defensive coach.

    You are being sucked in by the hype, he isn't even fighting the best in Britain, he is very chinny and is being protected to the max fighting smaller guys with no power or they are shot.

    We've seen how ponderous Diaz looks against speed. This is one guy I'd favour Khan against.

    I don't get sucked in by hype. I've been an outspoken critic of his in the past, however, I see great handspeed & movement for a 21 year old fighter & think with the right guidance & sparring he could do something.
