    Bradley fought a prime but unmotivated witter imo. By the time he challenged alexander he was clearly in decline.

    If he steps in the ring vs khan in april a victory will mean absolutely nothing.

    Yep.

    Don't see it being Witter at all. It's not Murray, that's for sure.

    If we were to short-list it, it's probably

    Peterson
    Katsidis
    Brook
    Prescott

    Hopefully it'll be put to bed either tonight or early tommorow. Pretty sad if it was Peterson, considering how they've gone over every opponent and come back to the original egg.

    I hope it's Peterson. If not, I'll settle for Katsidis who will at least make Khan fight on the inside.

    We don't need to see khan vs witter or katsidis.

    Prescot, peterson and murray would be ok.

    Brook wouldn't really be beneficial but wouldn't really be detrimental either.

    if he can finally retire the gobby so and so and stop us watching this stupid looking style of witter then ile be happy.

    it worked for naz,but he was special,witter is nothing special.

    Amir list in order should be:
    Peterson
    Prescott
    Katsidis
    Murray


    guess they are desperate for ayone who agrees to team dodgy khans contracts.

    According to Fat Dan, Team Khan have upped the offer to $300,000 to fight Lamont Peterson. No word from Peterson yet.

    It appears Sky approved Murray.. HBO said "no, we'd rather Peterson". Team Khan then went and tested the waters with Witter.. Sky said no.

    So now with no real alternative they have had to put the offer up.

    I hope HBO-GBP pressure Peterson to take it. Decent payday for him, Vali cries himself to sleep at the thought of the money lost, result for me. The best competitive fight we could of probably got.. result for all of us.

    If Dan is breaking it, I reckon GBP have got more involved now.

    Witters better than Peterson so I would prefer him but out of them all it should be Prescott IMO.

    From Twitter:

    ''by monday the world will know who I'm boxing!''

    ''Prescott isn't calling me out, some fool put it on a chat forum n everyone went along with it and if I did fight him I'd beat him n its a step bk, he's lost 2 of the last 4, let him build up in rankings then I'll take, when I knock him out I dnt want no excuses he was on a losing streak''

    ''kel brook not yet wen I move up to 147 I'll fight him n beat him. So tell frank warren shut up n stop using my name for publicity''
