    Looking at who is left...

    The only two guys I see left at a world level @ 140 are Matthysse and Marquez

    I can't see either fight getting made however...

    so who and what next? debut 147? or some random dude for a home UK fight?

    Khan says expect something in the next 2 weeks

    expected comments:

    "Mattysee would knock Khan out"
    "Marquez would knock Khan out"

    I want to see Matthysse Vs Khan. I'd be worried to sh*t about Khan getting KTFO

    Khan said recently after Matthysse's last fight that he saw some weaknesses... so Khan might be thinking about that fight

    Khan's first choice would defintly be Marquez for the WBO belt. But we already know Marquez isn't likely to take that fight

    Good debut fight @ 147

    Mali would be in the driving seat however with his belt.

    Don't know whether it would be worth seeing

    Would probaly end up like their first fight...

    Exactly the guy i was thinking.

    A guy with a title with no pop in his punches is the perfect way to start at 147.

    Now if he gets koed by Paula...

    I will have no words left to describe that chin or lack of.

    The Malignaggi-Khan fight was so one sided at JWW, do people really want to see a rematch?

    Anyway Malignaggi had to earn his shot at the title, so I don't see why he needs to give Khan a shot considering he is coming off two losses.

    Jose Miguel Cotto is always a sturdy second tier opponent that could give Khan a bit of confidence back but will ensure Khan is pushed hard enough to give a good performance for the fans. Said Ouli or Carson Jones could be another choice opponent.
