    Remember this is a Golden Boy show on HBO, I think the only fighters that won't travel are Alexander, Bradley and Marquez otherwise I think anyone would come over for a shot at Khan.

    I'm not sure there are some good fighters at 140 but quite a few of them need 1 or 2 good wins. You obviously have Ortiz, Maidana, Urango, Peterson as the stand out top 10 fighters but for me Urango wouldn't make sense as that would be the ultimate no gain very high risk fight, Ortiz and Peterson didn't make a statement on Saturday if one of those guys had one I would have chosen that as my preferred opponent And he just faced Maidana and March is a bit soon to be facing someone like him again.

    So they will have to look beyond that, Judah is the biggest name and McCloskey is the best and most interesting British Light Welterweight and you also have Breidis Prescott as well. I think the smart money will be on Zab but I would prefer to see Khan-McCloskey or Khan-Prescott II.

    Things were somewhat different then. Maybe he would travel, I hope so I'd pay to see it.

    Yeah it would, but it would sell and it would be no more awful than the Barrera fight.

    It would be way worse than Barrera. Remember the bookies odds for Khan-Barrera...Khan was favourite but it was close. What odds on Khan-Morales today...Khan would be something like 1/7 favourite for me.

    Zab Judah is a decent opponent, big name and still just about a top 10 fighter in the division. Coming off a real tough fight I don't have a problem with Khan-Judah.

    I'd love a Prescott rematch. Judah is a fight that doesn't excite me but I can't complain. Khan has earned a fight like this so good luck to him.

    I'd probably have a decent little bet on Judah by stoppage at 5 or 6 to 1.

    Exactly!!:lol:

    It was a great showing from Khan last night but I think a lot of people were watching a different fight from the one I was. Khan showed great heart but his chin is still very suspect IMHO.

    I think it's much improved myself. He took a couple of beauties in the very first round and I was expecting to go jelly legged. It's not granite but its not certified china no more.

    yep, its def. improved but he was rocked frequently and survived, the problem will come when he's rocked and his opponent lands another 2 or 3 big punches. That didn't really happen last night.

    At least he knew to leg it and not go in and trade. I also don't recommend him trying anymore "rope-a-doping". WTF was that all about? He took some mean looking uppercuts trying that ****.

    Judah is an unnecessary risk but they will sell his name and achievements.
