    I think it can be relevant for his legacy also. Since stepping up he will have fought atleast one champ, a slick boxer, a pressure fighter and a guy who knocked him out. It's a good run.

    I'll lose respect for him if he fights peterson over prescott.

    Beeston did mention one good name tho, murray. That could be a good fight.

    Murray, ortiz, juan, prescott. I'll be happy with any of them fights.

    As a stay busy fight I still feel the prescott matchup is perfect considering the circumstances.

    if hatton hadnt have fell away and all his high jinx worries and was still semi active then a fight with the hitman vs khan would have had world appeal.

    shame ricky lost the plot, that would have been a decent fight for khan at this time either at the reebok or the men or even eastlands, would sell out and would do box office numbers.

    Definitely, that could have been the plan a year ago. If ricky hadn't gone off the rails he could have had an interim bout vs judah(prob for a vacant belt) then the khan fight would be huge, hell without an interim fight it would still be hyped up.

    You know who're we kidding if the fight got made still it would be absolutely huge in the press.
