    Who would you want him to fight?

    This is a 'Stay-Busy' fight for Khan as he wants to get one in before Ramadan in the UK and then have a break.

    BEFORE YOU POST:

    The guys who have been brought up will be in the poll above.

    Edit: Khan can't fight JMM on that day. I meant July 31st could be a double-header according to Schaefer and the winners of the bouts could fight on a different day. My mistake

    I think the Katsidis fight is a great idea.

    I think he doesnt need prescott fight to be totally honest,it wud be nice to avenge the defeat but its a step backwards he needs to move on now,since its just a keep busy fight it i guess it doesnt really matter,katsidis is not a bad option but i think if they chose katsidis then do NOT i repeat do NOT treat it as a keep busy fight coz lets put it one way he will be kept busy on the night.I know this is a bit random but i wud say someone like Lamont Peterson would be a good option as he has only lost to Bradley and has bounced won his recent fight and it wud also be a good comparison fight to see how he does against Peterson compared to Bradley. Peterson is a respectable opponent and genuine LWW wot do u think? (by the way its just a thought since khan has only 2 months till july 31st)

    And you're probably one of the people that constantly bring up the Prescott KO and the fact that he dodges punchers.

    FYI,

    Prescott is now a 140 pounder.
    Katsidis just knocked out Mitchell (The guy people said who would beat Khan). Katsidis is a power puncher.
    JMM just fought Mayweather at a higher weight. JMM is top 10 P4P and if Khan was to beat him that would be huge.

    Yeah he could do. But the thing is with Lamont, he's not known in the UK for beans. Katsidis has made 2 upsets already in the UK and if Khan were to beat him that'd be huge.

    Prescott is now 140 pounder (LWW). Khan would do great to avenge his loss as he always said he wanted to.

    and looked like **** at that higher weight, lets not forget about that, and you are right Prescott is a 140 pounder now, thats why i would like to see Khan go against him. Should he beat him, he will avange that embarrasing KO, silence his critics, and gain even more confidence, and prove to the world how much he has improved and that the shot he was caught with was just one lucky shot.

    Fair point dude and I honestly think Khan will beat katsidis but I just think the preparation time should be a bit longer for that kind of dangerous fight thats why I suggested Peterson otherwise i'm up for seeing khan v katsidis I think it will be an absolute *******.

    Yeah. I'd love to see how he copes under that pressure. Plus I live in London so I'd love for it to be in the O2 Arena. Would be a great way to get ready for Maidana too.

    Blocks facts? The guy stated Prescott is 135 pounder.

    He's 140, ****** :patsch. So much for blocking facts.
