    Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer has outlined an entire plan of attack for an internal mini-tournament of sorts with the biggest junior welterweights in his stable. In the first match, WBA champion Danny Garcia (25-0, 16KOs) would face Zab Judah (42-7, 29KOs) at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on April 27th. The second leg of the tourney would see Lamont Peterson (31-1-1, 16KOs)defend his IBF title against Lucas Matthysse (33-2, 31KOs)on May 18th. Winner of those two matches fight each other.

    Winner faces Khan if he beats Julio Diaz.

    Is it me or why would these elite fighters have to go through each other to fight Khan, while Khan chooses an aged and half shot Julio Diaz. I would like to see Khan face the winner of Brook vs Alexander or something. Instead of being rewarded with a big fight simply because you beat Molina and Diaz. C'mon man.
