    I agree this will be the case, with all due respect this is a keep busy fight for Khan, if this was him fighting the winner of Bradley or Alexander then i think Roach would be with Khan all the way.

    I hope khan takes murray it makes sense in all but one category - murray being a lightweight.

    But I really wanna see it, and I think john can pull it off, like someone said, what a great underdog story it would be.

    Khan made the jump for the belt, I pick murray to do the same!

    Things get a bit more complicated...

    If you were Murray would you go Khan or Marquez?

    He's fighting Eric. No way he will take Murray or Nahr.

    Could you imagine if JMM and Murray fought as chief support to Khan with the winner getting Khan?! Would be unreal.

    Wouldn't happen. Marquez won't fight in the UK.. and even if it was in the states.. They would promote it as a Marquez bout with a Khan undercard, not that it would happen.

    Can't believe I beat Lazarus to this....

    Money has been upped, and Paul McCloskey could be facing Amir Khan after all on April 16th, I'm told

    Safe fight for Amir and it makes the most financial sense too, he should take it.

    I am pretty sure not a peep has been said today by them, I can only assume he's referencing yesterdays thing about TK making a higher offer (the extra dependant on PPV sales)

    BBC also chiming in, they seem convinced it's going to be sorted in next 72 hours.

    Kim could have talked to Schaefer personally today.

    Look at his other recent tweets - they're about GBP. Also mentions Litzau passed on a Linares fight which hasn't being reported anywhere.
