    “Leo Santa Cruz is coming off of a good fight, and Abner Mares is coming off of a tough fight,” De La Hoya told RingTV.com on Monday. “And they’re both ready to step up. The same goes for Amir Khan and Guerrero.”

    A great venue for Khan and Guerrero, and maybe where that fight belongs, would be the Barclays Center in New York,” said De La Hoya. “The fans are just amazing at The Barclays Center, and I believe that we can close out the year with a big fight like that at The Barclays Center in December. If not December, then, early next year.”

    Me too, this a real test of Khan under Hunter..

    If Khan wins he will be front runner for Floyd in May for sure..

    If he wins this then he definitely deserves the Mayweather fight. He picked on someone Mayweather previously beat and if he impresses against him then he will force the media to mention him as a serious challenge.

    Agreed.

    It's the first solid fight at welterweight that Khan has had and will give us a good indication how he would fair against title holders like Brook and elite welterweights like Pac and Mayweather.

    The less offensive and slightly boring style that Khan used to beat Luis Collazo is actually a perfect match for his skills and lack of chin.

    Looking forward to seeing Guerreros head boxed off. This will be very one sided

    Can't call it Christian nut vs Muslim nut. People will start blowing up buildings and ODLH will have a fatwa put on his head :lol:

    Guerrero will crusade Khan's runny behind though.

    It's true though, people have died for getting an education, or writing a book. Saying this is BOUND to cause trouble in the Muslim world. It would cause a violent frenzy. Which is why I'm against such promotion.

    I just think of what happened to Salman Rushdie and wouldn't want Oscar to have to go through the same thing
