    No, it's time for Canelo. After he beats Saul, he can fight whomever he wants then, he would have deserved it. Ride into the sunset like a G. But now, he needs to take out Canelo so that Oscar looks like he's eaten **** on 9/14/2013.

    Two words...Hell no!

    Khan hasn't done a thing lately...I'll be pissed if May were to fight him.

    I'd watch it...I think Khan would do better than many act, but ultimately get beat. I'll tell you this, the fight would sell, of this I have no doubt.

    Khan does not have a fanbase big enough to make this fight worthy. He doesnt deserve the shot either.

    If Khan went and beat 2 top level guys at 140/147 now, as much as I dislike him, I would say fair enough you've earned your shot, best of luck.

    At the end of the day a fight with Mayweather is the biggest draw you will get in boxing right now. Boxing fans want to see fighters earn that shot and that big payday.

    Leonard Ellerbe tweeted yesterday: "Amir Is a great fighter and no tune up for anyone"

    Surprisingly, it's quite serious. Amir's next fight is at 147 pounds, most likely versus Abregu or Alexander. It's a terrible mis-match, but you can see they want to fill Khan in on one of the five fights they have left.

    Its quite obvious that Mayweather and GB probably want that fight at some stage, its been talked about for a while. Khan has a large following, is exciting, and Mayweather has often said he'd like a fight in the UK or a fight to please his UK fans. Also, Khan has the handspeed that may make some people give him a chance against Mayweather, but most likely it would end up a Mayweather KO victory: and a KO is something Mayweather would want also to keep casuals interested
